#299845 - 16/04/11 10:59 AM Hi from SA
rent Registered: 16/04/11 Posts: 6 Loc: South Africa	Hi, from South Africa, thank you for a great looking forum. I have recently picked up a Fiesta ST 2006 model. High mileage, 220 000 km(140 000) miles), good service history, and all going well. For obvious reason, the first thing I am interested in is finding others will high mileage ST's to compare notes.

The standard tyres are not badly priced in SA, and apparently the Duratec 2.0l is pretty bullet proof.You always take a chance buying a high miler (especially, a hot hatch??) but this one is solid and runs really well so I dont expect any headaches down the road.
