Dan2142 Site Supporter Registered: 11/08/13 Posts: 12	Hi everyone Just looking for a bit of advice, I'm looking at getting a fiesta but don't know if to go for the st or zetec s, I've had a seat Ibiza fr and a turbo vectra so like the sound of the st. I'm just looking to downsize my car and have a little less running cost currently have a vw bora 1.9 tdi pd 150bhp just keeps going wrong. Thanks Dan

Dan2142 Site Supporter Registered: 11/08/13 Posts: 12	Well defiantly getting a ST is there anything to look for when getting one and is a higher mileage bad or would I be better getting one with under 60k on the clock

Jack_P Dirtiest Car 2013 + 2014 Registered: 21/07/10 Posts: 6012 Loc: Northants	Good choice. Obviously get the best example you can afford, if your budget stretches try getting a facelift one as it has the better dash and trip computer! Lower millage obviously better, one thats got fsh and the little amount of owners the better! _________________________ 180Bhp/206Nm

Make sure you have a proper look down all the panels for dents etc, i thought i did until a couple days after i noticed 5 quite bad dings and very nearly put it up for sale after just two weeks of owning it! 3 years later i still have it so i obviously loved it enough _________________________ 180Bhp/206Nm

Stephlar I am the ephmeier Registered: 07/03/10 Posts: 8643 Loc: Northamptonshire	You need to short list a few that you like or are interested in and then go check them out. AutoTrader was perfect for me. Prices were slightly cheaper up north if you're willing to travel. Expect to pay more for a white _________________________
