Very nice! As stated you have the best colour choice there, still don't see many of these around which seems odd given all the good reviews.  Just reading autoexpress group test and the st beats the mk7 gti and the Renault megane.  I think ford missed a trick not making a 3 door focus, I will be interested to see if ford make the rs and whether that will be 5 door aswell.

i think ford have in a way tried to make it more family orientated? With a 5 door hatch and an estate no 3 door it does show in the insurance has mine halfed coming from the vxr and the golf gt tdi :confused: i was shocked when the women said £400 for the year...

Brett yes the ST is the same mate in fact it takes alot from your RS, a couple of things i found out since owning it, the intercooler and inlet and the clutch plus a few other things. Not got much else planned until the options plan comes up for renewal. Then ill either keep the car or go to the RS if its out or maybe even try something else.

Mountune do a nice cheeky intake pipe that gives it more growl and an uprated intercooler. I swore blind I would not modify this car :innocent: however :evilgrin: has gotten the better of me :signLOL:

Some tlc by the very nice gentleman at Deep-Shine Detailing  :notworthy:





Mirrors and roof wrapped in gloss black and a maintenance detail done, Carlo and Adi did an excellent job and it looked amazing when I picked it up.

I'll be back down in the next few weeks to get a New Car Prep detail done...cheers again guys

It wasn't too bad a drive back, but it's well filthy now what with people having Bon fires all over the place, not even bonfire night yet :stupid:

Not been able to drive it since it's been done, the Monday after it had been done I had an op on my shoulder due to a frozen shoulder so no driving for up to 3 weeks. The better half is driving me every where :happy2:

Frozen shoulders are a bugger. Cars looking good though!

Some pics of my new wheels, they are the Riva DTM in 18" and gloss black finish.  

I thought they would suit the gloss black details, sorry not the best pics

Just for you John I'll get some sorted, I did get some better pics this afternoon but not had chance to do anything, had another viewing on our house today, hopefully our new house will be built before June :happy2: I'll have a nice garage to put it in and keep it warm.

This selling houses lark is exhausting :laugh:

You should consider fitting the lower engine mount insert from powerflex. I have fitted one to my Ecoboost and it does make a massive difference to the car. If you look at the rear mount it shockingly allows for loads of movement in the engine. I now have next to no movement with hardly any vibrations in the cabin. I'm thinking I will get an estate ST next year once I have purchased a new house at the back end of the year. Loving the new wheels :happy2:

Already on mate, along with milltec decat and stage 1 bluefin, h&r springs next. From others with the same mods it's running around 290+bhp - 360 odd ftlb

Nice one :happy2:
I'm looking at the airtec intercoolers for my car. Looking at the results they bring the intake temps down loads more than the std intercooler.
