You sound a lot like I did at the end of my time with fiesta, it was different reasond wuth mine but like you i loved the car but just lost all interest.

If you do get rid why not have a look at cars from other manuafacturers, not saying you have to but there is so much choice. If you really must stay with ford, why not do a Mole and get a Mk7 zetec-s?

its a shame as the car is good, but the dealers have frankly annoyed me

yeah i don't know yet

i'm seeing how ford respond first if they make me pay they can sod off

if i sell it i might just pay off the loan to keep my outgoings down and that depending on what i sell the ST for would leave with £2000ish so i can examine my options

my heads with fords as i love them, grew up with them and i know they aren't perfect but it all depends on what happens and whats available.

Never getting a new car again though, feck that!

not all dealerships are barstewards mate. the branch down the road from mine has had really bad reports so they palm their customers onto us and we seem to make them happier. it just depends on the staff really. if the manager is crap then his staff wont care there fore they get moody at the customers and wont let anything go the customers way.

Well i am a clumsy fucking twat

My mate camround to show me his new Bandit 1200 motorbike, and it was sweet then he let me sit on it, and as my drive is on an angle, it rolled off the stand and fell over, straight into the rear bumper on the ST then the floor (which was good in a way as it only damaged the clutch lever so i brought a new one, but the engine cover is scuffed ) and i have a bodyshop appointment as i took paint off the bottom corner, and scratched the bumper up

And its just been detailed

Its not bad on my bumper, you can't notice it as its small damage but i know its there

And my best mate is not to annoyed with me

lucky to get away with just them could of been alot worse

you said he not really annoyed but are you still allowed to sit on his bike though

yeah it was luky in a way, but its cost me £20 so far, plus more to come

and well we have known each other years, so he wasn't to pissed off although i refuse to go anywhere near it now. Last night when we were leaving the pub i shouted bye from the exit as he got on it

Thats rubbish! At least your mate isn't angry about it and more damage wasn't done though!

cheers lads

still pissed off though

i hope alex doesn't kill me

well the bumper will have to wait until i have money, you can hardly notice it so bugger it. Got to see how my argument with ford pans out first and if they won't back down they can take it back and sort it themselves

More build quality: The "F" on my "Fiesta" badge is wobbling and is about to fall off

you must be the most unlucky person on here with a car

detail pics look ace by the way

Jono: i know, the only car not to give me jip was the xr3i but blimey, in general, i must have upset someone as i never have any luck, ever. Especially with this bloody car. I know people think i go on a bit, but with good reason its fucking annoying! doing my head in. And theres me wanting an RST!

Dave: Ah those fuckers got to wait until NEXT friday for the tow eye and rear light to be fixed and my dads back today, so he can resolve his fight with the door handle. Cheeky git on the phone who rang me to book my car in, "did i say the tow eye was good will?" er yes you twat and " what blue is your ST? " How about the only blue you get an ST fiesta in

A new flexi pipe without a restrictor, piper of milltek is on the way my mate has got me one on a pay back monthly scheme

and i have xenon bulbs and foglight bulbs on the way

I keep wanting to upgrade my C2 but have sworn not unless something needs replacing!

As it is my air filter maybe due but my exhaust just won't rot away!!!

_________________

well the bulbs aren't great standard, and the new ones are much better. Shit design by ford though you have to move the coolant bottle to change a headlight or take them out, and you defintely have to take them out to change the sidelights
i'll try and get a pic

On my dads Mk6 we just took the headlights out to change the bulbs seemed the easiest way.

cheers terry

well blow me down i was nearly impressed with ford yesterday

i went in to get the rear light and tow eye done and complained about the F on the fiesta badge and the centre cap and they ordered and fittered a new centre cap, and rather then just an F i got a whole new fiesta badge, and the stuff i wanted fixed to

Just got to go back for the bumper gap issue and the door handle but i got the bodyshop manager's name so i can tell ford uk themselves
