Hi ya!

I posted on here acouple days ago about my test drive but, thought I should formerly introduce myself so.......Hello u lot, nice to meet you!

I ordered my ST(performance blue) 34hrs ago.....it's going to be 12wks coming. Next 3months will be painfully slow.

Welcome to the site, Im sure that they will fly by and you will love the car
It will be well worth the wait

Hello Biff welcome to the site! good colour choice! 3 month is not that long!

12 wks gives you a long time to think of mods...Any ideas?

No 1. has got to be the gear stick gaiter... Up to you though?

it a good start easy to do and cheap! everyone first mod!

Hey Biff, Sure I'll see ya around !

Hi ya!

I'm sure I will see you around but not until mine arrives (early December) ok. Coz if I see you before, I will only get jealous!! Are you happy with the car?

oh yeah love it, had few bits n bobs done lately hopin to get some more recent pics up after i wash it today, where bouts in pompey u from ?

Im in Copnor. Drive a 2000 black zetec s at the moment. It's been a good car, fun to drive but not exciting. Im hoping to re-capture the spirit and fun of the XR2 of which I have owned many. I didn't get much of a test drive and couldn't open her up so taking abit of a risk alhough everyone on here have said that i won't regret it.......can't wait!!

I didnt even test drive an ST when i bought mine.

Stupid yes...

same for me cos they didn't have any St for test drive just bought it for its look first!

I have just been rear ended today! 2 weeks before i should be trading the zetec s in, oh the joys of insurance companies. Just hope they don't try putting up my insurance cause some old dear didn't stop behind me. I suppose it could have been worse.....could have been the new ST and then i would have been very depressed.

Oooh no, that's terrible Biff. Hope this does not compromise anything on your ST. As you say though it's better like this than on your brand new car... Good luck in getting everything sorted out with the insurance.

Thats not good at all. I shouldnt affect your ST but you may have to pay extra on the insurance for your new one if you make a claim. Its a hard one to guess, unfortunately youll have to just wait and see the outcome. Best of luck with it all mate.

I wasn't going to claim as this will only hold up the ST now while waiting on insurance to sort it out. £700 in damage. Dealer did manage to close the boot for me......with a BIG! hammer. The other party started the insurance ball rolling unfortunately. Tried telling her not too as she will be paying for it all. she only needs a new bumper. at least i have protected no claims, guess its wait and see when it comes to the ST. I already had a quote......will it change?? mmmm i suspect so.

Nick, where in switzerland you from?
