Hi all...
May be selling my ST for a ford ranger 4x4, Somehow it works out cheaper to me as my missus' is expecting and all the rest. Really dont want to get rid because i love the ST !!
But on the brighter side, its a fantastic car and ive loved every minute so far. just thought i's let you all know.

that would be a complete different car! also seem to be more expensive than the ST! slower but roomier, less comfy! and its a diesel!

I can understand you wanting to change the car... it would be a pain in the arse getting a baby in and out of a 3 door... thats why my sister got a Zetec Climate instead of an

You are more than welcome to stay on the site and I'd love to see you bring it along to meets... I have no issues with you bringing it to any shows... Would be nice having the variety!!!

Make sure you let us know how things go and please don't think you aren't welcome!!!

If you don't have an like me or even a such as babyboom then you must feel you are still welcome

Nooo dont get rid of the ST, Ive always had 3 door small cars with 2 kids since they were babies, I never found it a problem with car seats and prams etc, the only problem I had was training the kids once they got big enough to get in and out of the ST was "Dont tred on the door sill-plate"!!

LOL same here.
I have three children (well two and a 16yr old now)
and we have always had three door cars.
The one five door car we had was a nightmare for putting the baby seat in as you had to lean over the baby to route the seatbelt through the seat each time you got in or out.
Also, no rear windows for them to mess around with.

Have you picked up your care yet Dave? You'd ordered a Zetec Climate hadn't you?
Spoke to my dealer yesterday and Ford have agreed to put mine through as a priority order so should have my ZS diesel in the next month or so.

No, I am thinking of waiting for the New Fiesta now as I like the look of the Verve !!
I have seen the new Fiesta in the flesh, remember? and I quite like it!

Rumour has it that the Verve concept was actually (based on) the ST version of the new Fiesta.

The garage are looking into the prices for me for the Zetec Climate still, but there is a three month wait because you have to get the car built, which means I'll have to wait until March.
The new Fiesta is out in October (I think) and the ST version shortly after so I think I'll wait.

I love the auto box (well clutchless manual 6-speed) with the paddle shift that the verve has !!

o0 Wow, sounds very intersting there. I did like the Verve concept, and if it was indeed based on the ST then it does sound very exciting. I like the sound of having a 6-speed paddle shift, and would finish things nicely if that "Ford Power" button that was in the Verve turns out to be a starter button like on the Focus RS.
