i doubt you'll even be able to use 6th gear around town.



you do if you want to trundle around at 30mph doing 1krpm



have you driven a 6speed car?
we got 6 speed gearbox on our mk7 golf, theres no way we can drive in 6th at 30mph without the engine making a strugling noise.
maybe get to around 45-50mph and you can use 6th just about, so reckon it will be the same for the fiesta.

I use 6th gear when I'm on a 40mph dual carriageway going to work in my focus, no problems

It's the Sesto Elemento

Means "Sixth Element" in Italian

Fully carbon fibre, only 20 made exclusively for the track

40mph technically is'nt around town driving considering the majority of the roads are 30mph
can you drive at 30mph though around town in 6th?
what focus is it?

After checking out the one on show at Allen Ford in Romford I was left slightly disappointed by the small details of the interior...still to much plastics being used for my liking (I.e plastic front arm rest) in comparison to the Focus.
