Hi there Fellow Fiesta ST-Fanatics. I sadly don't currently own any Fiesta ST, but I'm totally on the prowl for one asap. There's just not that many up for sale here in Denmark, right now only 8 for sale. But guess that's because people don't want to part with them again  But I'm going for a stock ST, which I can mod the way I like too, and which has a full service history. Other then that, I have been breed up with Ford, as my dad were Ford fan, and raced MK1/MK2 escorts when I was born. Sadly we lost him when I was 6, but the Ford appreciation still lives strong with me (eventhough I've had a suzuki alto '96 for the last 4 years, but lets not talk about that  ) But in my lock up, I'm so lucky to have my dad's old bubbled arched MK1 escort, which I found back in 98. So just need the ST to complete my car park. Looking forward to being a part of this forum. - TheDane / Soren

Don't actually know why I never got around to shooting some pic's when I had the escy on the road ('99-'01) But of' course that was almost in the stone age of the net So maybe that was why. But here's a gallery I have put up on a danish site, but you can see the pic's I have up'ed so far. http://www.bilgalleri.dk/gal_visbil.aspx?ID=6096&ipc=30633As of now I just need to get it sorted for MOT, got a leaking rear that needs to be corrected and fitted with a higher ratio, as I'm running the 1.0 gearing, and that's a bit low for the pinto/RS2000 box, but might just swap the box for a 5speed instead. And then I need to put on the front billies, and re-fit head+ancillaries, exhaust, brake booster. And probably a lot more. Got almost all the parts laying around, but can't seem to get the time to tinker with it. But really just have to pull my finger out, and get it done. Here's a link to how it looked during the ages my dad had it: http://bilgalleri.dk/alb_vis.aspx?AlbumID=3792Regarding my choice of ST, I can't really get decided, but I know when I see the right one, I'll know. It just looks so nice in all the colours, but got a little thing towards the Performance Blue one. But the white ones look cool too, especially blue-striped, just thinking that dirt and stuff will be to visible on those. Red is kinda far down my list, as theyre kinda looking to bogstandard for me. And the black ones are pretty plain, except with nice chrome wheels. Soooo difficult to choose. But thinking about getting a 1.Generation, as I like the black dash, but then I have to give up the boardcomputer which 2.Generation has. And kinda think the blue/red dash looks misplaced, but then the grey one could be a nice compromise. But to find a PB one with grey dash, low milage, full service history, and for affordable money here, is like fishing for whales barehanded. Given again that at the moment there's only 8 for sale as I know of. So might have to import my own from Germany, but that could prove great success in the end, as it's easier to find one with auto A/C there, as most here in DK only has manual A/C Regarding what I will have done to it, I'm not so sure of yet. Might run i fairly standard to start with, but would love to have the cossie inlet manifold fitted as it will liven up the bay a lot. Then probably just the usual open filter and stainless exhaust. Thanks for the welcome mates.

Soren i have a mondeo RS2000 box in black i need to sell fancy it?
i can cut you a bargain deal if you want?
only done 42K miles 5 speed box?
Thanks, but don't think that will fit, as I reckon that's a FWD box, and I need a RWD box. But thanks for the offer anyway, much appreciated mate.

Loving the 'scort fella, lovely red. Jealous of your little project lol
Thanks mate, you got yourself a nice project going on Read all your thread about it at work yesterday, and those green wheels is starting to grow on me Looking forward to see what's up next with it.
BTW:
Sometimes I can be like a kid, that want's to play with the toy other kids are playing with, so now I want you Jodie in my backseat too When I get my ST that is... Or gets the rearseat fitted again in the escy...

I'm sure it's a RWD box as it's way to long to fit as a FWD box, will check though mate, it's from an escort not a mondeo too even.
No need to check up on it mate, that's definately a FWD box. Could maybe be a 4WD box, but that I can't tell/don't know.
But thanks anyway mate.

Cheers Soren, I always say that green wheels are like marmite, you love them or hate them hehe.
As for Jodie, shes a must have mod for any STs rear seats
Why do I have the feeling she doesn't see it that way

Well my standards aren't that high Jodie  , remember I've just been driving around in a 16 year old Suzuki Alto for the last 5 years
