Ok bit of an update if people are interested. Think its gonna be best to wait until the end of the agreement. They will just take the car off me and i get nothing back for a deposit so the ZS works out £250 a month and the ST £290. Both beyond my budget at this time. I'll hang on and hopefully be in a better position next year.

Not yet upgraded but expecting delivery of our new ST in the next few weeks.

We're upgrading from a C2 VTS. Had it for 2 years but need something a little bigger as i'm expecting on 10th March. Still couldn't quite make the step to get a proper 'family' car lol

Looking forward to getting the ST, we've ordered one in white with full stripes.

Sounds good there, and you won't be disappointed. Just be prepared for a bit of fiddling around trying to get a car seat in the back due to the lack of any rear doors!
I upgraded from a Sportka by the way, back in December 2005 and now on my second ST

I upgraded from a MK1 Seat Ibiza Special 1.5 systeme Porsche. Absolutely mental for a first car, and you don't see many of them around!! But uni meant I had to leave it at home and my brother seized the engine

Then when I came back last year I had a P.O.S. Rover 216SE. Bad car, bad bad car...

Yeah we're getting that passenger air-bag switch put on and also having ESP fitted which is another thing that I think should be standard.

Not too fussed about about getting car seat in and out of the back as the front seat does come forward quite alot so plenty of space to get it in, certainly alot more than the C2.

Really can't wait to get the ST, wanted one when they first came out but couldn't afford one then, also insurance would have been far too much. Roll on March....although haven't got a proper delivery date yet it's still estimated.

The Mondeo was a september 05 55 plate TDCi. I wasnt particularly happy with it cause it got bashed and while it was a brilliant cruiser, the handling wasnt firm enough. Because I've had Diesels for the last 10-12 years, I ordered a Zetec S TDCi, this got delayed due to the 30th special edition and my pre-registered Fiesta came up at the same price of £10.5k so I snapped it up. Im loving my Fiesta , just learning to rev a petrol engine again.

This is me with my first car, a 2001 fiesta black 1.25 with full leather obviously. I worked hard on this car and i like to think it looked pretty good.



This is my last car, i never got chance to finish working on it unfortunately, but the VTS was fantastic fun to drive, i miss it a lot




I currently own a standard Astra Sport Hatch in black too but i have no pictures of it, i'm sure you've seen them on the road in their millions!

Just waiting for my frozen white ST now, my first car i've bought from new,
hence i think i'll keep it standard for a good while.
