Right, this is not an easy decision but i need to make a complete change in my life, and with the mileage i am doing, the petrol ST is not going to make things any cheaper, regardless of how much i love it!

Spec:

53,000 miles (52,700 but will go up as its used daily!)
2.0 Duratec (really strong engine as many will vouch for!)
K+N Induction Kit
Power Steering Relocated so it doesn't whine (proper kit)
Corsa D Rear Wiper Arm
Quick Shift Kit Fitted
Carbon Ford Badge Overlays on car and centre caps and steering wheel from DMB
Body Coloured Boot Lock Cover
Detango'd Headlights
10mm Ignition Leads
2 new Yokohama Parada Spec 2's
Serviced in November - Oil, filters, brake fluid, coolant change

Standard ST Spec:

Half Leather Sports Seats with Red Trim
6 CD Changer Headunit
12V Power Outlet
Coin Holder
Front and Rear Heated Screens
6 Speed Adjustable intermittment wipers
Remote Central Locking
Electric Windows (one touch down on drivers side)
Boot Popper
Trip Computer
On Board Computer for settings and language settings

Both Boot struts replaced January 2010

Decals will be removed minus the Fiesta ST one done instead of the FIESTA badge on there prior.

Bad points:

Couple of marks in the front bumper
Usual stone chips but no dents or anything
Leaking air freshener from previous owner has taken some of the plastic of the centre dash trim
chipped windscreen (have been repaired, just unsightly)
Previous owner kerbed the alloys

MOT untill November 10th 2011
Tax until end of April

This really is a good example of the Fiesta ST. The engine is amazing, as many will vouch for. It does pull well and the torque means it is nice to drive without the need to redline it! Averaging 32.6mpg but that average was reset at ford fair! It handles well and has been faultless and 100% reliable (other then a sensor having a hissy fit on a hot day!) and i will miss it but i need to make this decision to save for my own place and get out of the rut i am in. The car is always warmed up and cooled down properly when used

Part of me thinks madness, all that time, effort, commitment, mods and how much you love it, why sell it, just drive nicely all the time?

But your decision at the end of the day mate, what you looking to get to replace?

Good luck

An si lol

Its a lovely looking car, hope you find a good home for her.

Mole:

I know I know and its not a decision i have taken lightly, believe me

But at the end of the day there are more important things then cars

Want to save and clear my debt, get my own place, go on holdiays etc

Loumiester: cheers mate i will be sad to see it go!

And replacements are being kept close to my chest

For some reason I can see a zetec s tdci in the future. . . . .
