OK,
Your car looks to be a full factory order. By that I mean you dealer couldn't amend an existing Fiesta order already in the bank at the time of your order, so they had to wait for the next batch of ST's to be build at the factory. The build schedule goes something like this, for example:
January 1-10 Only Fiesta Finesse are built
11-15 Only Zetec and Zetec A/C
16-25 Only LX and Ghia
26-30 ST
Also, the demand for this car has taken everyone by surprise. It was expected to be popular but not by this much so, unfortunately, the waiting is inevitable. At least you know its not been sat in a field for 12 months before you drive it.
2nd of April is the maximum delivery time, you should get it sometime in the week before that.
As for Phyzzo's order, I'm stumped! I can't understand how his car is taking so long. Even with every option added it should take nearly 5 months to build a Fiesta!
I hope this helps and that I haven't missed anything!
My thoughts exactly, but they think its due to full leather & sunroof, have you seen a car with leather & sunroof?

Hi Ian, good to get some feedback from someone with inside knowledge. I have to say, the dealer I used...GK Ford in Mansfield were very good. I was considering white with full stripes or red, but they explained the waiting time that I would have. I then saw a Performance Blue one and immediately loved it. Fortunately they had one of these in so I decidd to go for it. Had it nearly 3 weeks now, just over 1000 miles done and enjoyed them all. Spoke to my dealer sevice department yesterday to ask about booking it in for the 1500 mile check. They said just ring them the day beofre I want to take it in and they will do it while I wait. Seems good to me.

) so if you ordered in November, the latest you should have expected a build date was January, then roughly 4 weeks from build the car shold be delivered to your dealer. Do you have a chassis number or anything that your dealer has given you? Its a strange one I'm afraid!
