Just bought a little blue ST as my daily driver and thought I'd sign up and say Hi! Really chuffed with the car so far, handling has impressed me no end even compared to my FRS. Here she is...





18k miles and just been serviced. Pulled out the dirtiest air filter I've ever seen so thought I might as well pop in a GenII while I was at it...





Promised I wouldn't modify this car...well that lasted all of 2 weeks!!

Looks like a good site with lots of useful info...chat to you all soon

Hey Bishman, nice car same colour as mine!!!

The handling is very good, a proper little go-kart

Does the car perform better with the K&N filter?

I can't help but notice the facelift fiesta has an engine cover whereas the pre facelift doesn't!

P.S that exhaust tailpipe needs a clean

Cheers Chris, definitely more responsive with it on, feels faster but that might just be the nice induction noise you get. I was a bit suprised there was no nice cover nestling under the airbox, was expecting it to look the same as the duratec in the RS...might need a bit of dressing up!



P.S I know but I was tired after all the polishing!!

mmm a K&N sounds like a good idea, not sure the insurance company would like it though!

It must be good having a Fez and a Focus at the same time!

LOL

I noticed you said they had given it a FULL service but yet the airfilter was dirty.

I love dealers, I bet the only thing they did was stamp the book!!

I'd get the oil & filter changed because I guarantee they didn't do that as well


Sorry to hear about your RS

Just noticed that, yes it will be. They will have only been available on 54 plates for maybe 6 weeks at the most?
