Personally I would wait for another year and wait until the new Fiesta ST comes out. If you can't wait, Frozen White is my choice.




if it comes out




I'm sure it will do.

The people who usually know these things have said that it's being worked on already. The main issue seems to be Ford not deciding yet whether or not to make a Fiesta RS - this would decide how powerful they will make the ST. Ford never bring out the more extreme versions at the same time as the base level models as it would interfere with the main model development, and also interfere from a marketing point of view. Think back to when the Focus ST came a year after the main Focus mk2 etc.

Ford are letting this hype develop, with dealers saying the same, about there not being another Fiesta ST to try and get people to buy the Zetec-S in the meantime. I wouldn't worry about it not coming out.

they have not started any work on a new ST version. they could start if you wanna lend them 14 million quid.

as yet there is nothing to suggest a fiesta ST will be made FACT.

wish people would stop asking the same question over and over.

may exist on the system Dave but that doesn't mean much. We both know this is not coming out for atleast 2 years yet.

so why get peoples hopes up saying that there will be one next year etc etc. its not gonna happen next year.

this is not a dig at you but im fed up of reading, theres a new one coming..... ford change there minds as often as i change my underwear. They havent even decided on which engine is def going in it.

just trying to be realistic that's all

I can assure you I am not assuming anything.

It's people like Autoexpress who haven't decided what engine they are going to say is in it or they can't be bothered to come up with a photoshop of it either.

Ford are just keeping quiet about it, just like all the other future models/engines in the pipeline.

If it's on the system it means a lot.

B299 is the new fiesta code like the old models which were B256/B257

still does not mean they will do anything with B299ST. They are far to busy with the focus Rs and getting the fiesta into the US to be thinking about doing an ST model in europe.

take it as you will but i still point out - at this moment in time there are still no plans of making an ST version.

I'm biased mate, but get a black one, they look the nuts when its dark and polish up really well.

You should be able to get something like an 07/57 for a good price now, I know the used market is on its arse so you can pretty much name the price!
