Hi,
I have come across an advert for an '05 Reg Fiesta ST with 8500 miles on for sale on Pistonheads for £7500, is this a good price?
Cheers
Dave

It's standard and in metallic blue. Looks nice from the pics, if people think it's a good price will probably buy it!!

Cheers for your help

8500 miles for an '05 plate!!  . Sounds like a good buy. If you decide to have a look, pay special attention to the inner walls of the tyres, and for stone chips to the bonnet and front wings that may have been colour coded polished.  Good luck on your decision  .

My friend at work, DAVE T ST, will explain. If Ford mechanics can't explain why his inner tyre threads are shot after 7000 miles and his Cat needs replacing on a brand new  then a HPI can't either. HPI is a good idea, but it only tells you the history of the car, how many owners, the last recorded mileage, service history etc. It will not tell you of any known faults that have not been rectified by the previous owner unless he/she has reported them. As i said, look at the tyres, especialy the rear inboard ones to see if they have been moved from the front to the rear. I don't want to put you off, the is wicked; just want to make you aware of buying any second hand motor i supose. Keep us informed.

Ok cheers mate, I will def check the tyres, do the front wheels need to be on full lock to check them better?
Why would there be a lot of stone chips on the bonnet??

Just like mine, thats a very nice example, bargain at £7500 with 8,500 miles on the clock!! Must be a cut n shut, lol.
Like mine also, i thought mine was low miles on 21,000, but that does seem a good price with such low milage.

I think it has been reduced a few times. I have spoken to the woman selling it and she said she is changing jobs so wants to sell quite quick. Going to look at it this weekend.

I'm quietly confident that it will be okay. If it is and I buy it the first thing I will be doing is a remap, anybody recommend a good one? Bluefin? Dreamscience?
Cheers

Thats what I like to hear mate!
Going to look at the ST this weekend, might take the cash with me and drive it home, or is that a stupid idea? (Not to sound young or an idiot)

Yeah I was going to make sure I had the insurance in place, don't really want to get nicked or lose my car after just buying it.

Picked it up today and it is immaculate except for a tiny bit of kerbing on the two front alloys.
Been driving about all day and I love it!
