It doesn't matter whether or not it is an ST, all cars, indeed all vehicles can be a lethal weapon in the wrong hands!

agree with u!any car can be a weapon what ever the power, u can own a slow car and drive stupidly and u can own a ST and driving sensibly and usally there more car accident in slow or old cars and rarely fast and new cars

Thanks all for your opinions!

Scotty, I think you misunderstood me from my earlier question,

---

Your initial question was regarding if we thought it was a good idea to have an as a learner/driver training car?

I have no worries regards fuel costs, tax deductable and all. Replacement parts if damaged? Seriously...Do you think that a plumber or joiner would loss sleep if one of their tools were damaged?

I am surprised by the negative responses my question has got from a froum of ST lovers. Maybe it is just a bit of snobbery and you think that learners don't deserve to learn in such a car

just my opinion. Thanks for yours!

I think you have got the wrong end of the stick with the responses. We are all or lovers and of course we love to see people wanting to get an . We obviously have quite an extensive knowledge of the car and possible negatives it might have being under a learners control.

I think you have misjudged us if they think we are being snobs. I think you should understand that if you post something on a public forum you cannot expect to get a response back that you wanted, sometimes the response is not as you intended or possibly even negative.

I feel the comments put by myself and others are completely fair and honest... did you want us to put down that the is the best thing since sliced bread? You would most definitely have got this going onto a Vauxhall, Pug or Fiat site... when we all know they are not particularly great cars.

It seems you have already decided to get an and I wish you all the best of luck with it... please let us know how you get on and get some pics up if/when you get it

Hey all,

I am new to your boards. I thought I'd jump straight in and ask for your opinions folks.

I need the low down on the Fiesta ST. I am looking to purchase one brand new, where are the best prices to be found?

What are your real honest opinions of this car?

Hi i am new to the board too - I know a new car sounds fab but.....have you considered a used one just bought my first ST 10 months old 07 plate for £9,480 from Dagenham Ford Woodford Green with 4700 on the clock as good as new with the depreciation taken out of the cost of a new one!!! Just a thought!!!
Cheers

Hi Folks,

I thank you for your responses. I am considering this purchase as a business decision so I have to be certain I get it right. I am a driving instructor and I want to use a car that is attractive to the public.

Being a Fiesta takes it right to the top of the class right away. My concern being an ST model is that it may scare some people when they realise what this car is capable of!

Now that you know this, how would you advise me?

Cheers,

RH
