Afternoon all . Im Josh, from sunny old Blackpool. Just put my deposit down on my new pride and joy. Its an 06 in red with white stripes. Only managed to make up just over 21,500 miles on the clock (no reason to beleive the aren't genuine). The car is in an immaculate condition and already has K&N cone, manifold and dropped 35mm which i must say looks to have all been done really well.

Pick up is tomorrow afternoon so expect pictures being thrown your way soon. Im a complete newbie to any sort of performance car ownership so expect a lot of questions

Cheers all!!

Hi Josh,

Welcome to the site mate, sounds like a promising purchase and indeed very low milage.

hi and welcome

welcome along buddy

Sounds a little cracker

Welcome mate

welcome to the forum bud
bet you cant wait to pick it up

welcome

Sounds perfect, welcome along

Hi Josh, welcome to the site.

welcome to the site!

you have a great starting point there, they are the must have parts to do on the fez

welcome along for the ride and fun, join up proper too to see the members area and the all Important TopTips section that you will be needing.

Hi and welcome

Red!! The best colour.

Thanks for the messages guys. The ST is now on the drive looking pretty and is so enjoyable to drive. Its a little thirstier than the old car but i suppose its all about the SMILES per gallon!

Red is deffo the way forward in my eyes, now thinking about saving to get my alloys refurbed in white to match?

Heyyy . I wish mine came with those mods ;(. Lucky

Welcome fella, do it! Get them refurbed white Lookin forward to seeing photos.

Finally got some snaps to show you guys although the clean prior to the drive out was a little pointless. Uploading shortly

Ps will be a member soon just been lazy and thought id pay up at a meet

i think that last one is mine mate

Yeh i spotted that decal and figured because im often out with the two vxr as seen in the pics i need to make a purchase. Im sure they appreciate while looking at the back of me lol

I have actually got the sticker yet though just thought you guys might appreciate it lol

What's the st like against the Vxr mate

Nice pics mate, ur looks sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet, the blue VXR looks the nuts too

Well to be honest mate considering the stats of the vxr my little fez gives them a hell of a run for their money. On the straights they get away from me but the fez is so good in the corners it levels the playing field. I reckon with some eventual tuning they will be eating my dust haha

Thats nice mate Dont often see a red ST with the full stripes anymore!

Cheers mate. I almost got rid of the OTT stripes and got a st500 bonnet decal but im undecided. Will prob just save my money and get that mani on and save for a new cam. Oh n white wheels too

KEEP THE STRIPES......................!!

I like the Corsa VXR

keep the stripes campaign has begun

+1

Stripes on the Red ST deffinitely look the dogs

Keep the stripes +3 as everyone takes them off and it makes the Fiesta ST just look like a normal Fez
Welcome!

Definitely keep them, they make the ST.

Haha brilliant!!! Well i guess they are staying

there are other mods which i wanna start with anyway. Oh and i broke the fog light glass on the passenger side somehow so need to try and find a replacement

hiya guys, I have donated to be come a member. Any ideas how long it takes before i can post??

Cheers all

cheers mate!

I bet your mates can appreciate the humour in that sticker I love the cloudy and sunny sky in those photos, looks absolutely mint! I personally would ditch the stripes as I prefer the naked look but it all comes down to personal preference

hahah yeh it was purely for them, all about the banter.
im really torn about the stripes i love them and think they make the ST stand out more from all the standard fezs out there but i do love the naked red with black wheels. i have a couple of ideas im throwing around though
