182 or leon any day over an ST, way too slow for what they are supposed to be.

Im sick of kids in them trying to race me aswell! Ha

How much do they go for these days?

i do, but i like the fact if anything goes wrong on the fiesta i can get it fixed cheap whereas the leon would probably cost more, being a VAG motor.

and you can get the st185 kit for the fiesta which gives it a 0-60 of 6.9 which is plenty for me.

My mate had this, went well and sounded superb.

White, without any strips on it what so ever.

Gorgeous cars, I'd love one. Just a shame they're so unpowered

How much is the 185 and what does it consist of?
I used to want one but thought they were underpowered too

They're worth £50 roughly for all 4 and come off easily with a screwdriver, easy money for a thief.

as said, either stolen or fallen off whilst driving.

2 of mine fell off whilst i was driving before

theres a certain way they clip in and if not secured properly they just fall off. a knife/screwdriver also gets them off.

200 kit sounds

need to get myself up to date with the modern ford car world as i'm so behind with the times now

they aren't ''slow as fuck'' as such, just not quick compared to it's competitors.

i love lcr's but i prefer the look of a fiesta st and red 225's are hard to come buy at decent prices/mileage

For having a 2ltr in a small car it is slow.

LCR all the way for me, much nicer to look at and drive, huge tuning potential if you wanted to and just a bit more of a grown up car imo.

Hardly slow as fuck.

12v Corsa, Nissan Selena, Citroen C1. Slow as fuck.

LCR being naturally aspirated everyone would say the same.

theres no way i could pick a fiesta over the LCR just a far nicer car imo.

think the fiestas look far better without the strips just look very tacky.

scunthorpe

£6.5k is my budget i think.

i do love them in red with anthracite alloys and lowered a little.

but then i know it won't handle as well as the fiesta and i keep thinking i'll be a little disappointed.

all i use my cars for is travelling to work and back during the week on the A13 in which i just sit at 70-80 and weekends i like to go down twisty country lanes and be able to have a car that loves the bends.

Have you had a go in the Lcr around I twisty road? You'd be very surprised how well they handle.

unfortunately i haven't

just basing my opinion on comparing my fiesta to my focus and the extra weight seemed to affect it quite a bit.

Everytime i see a Fiesta ST i like the blue, but EVERYTIME i see one they seem to want to race which gets annoying.

dont want to generalise haha but seems the image of them with most people.

LCR, i would say is a better bet for the money.

And Fiesta is a warm hatch, dont think its meant to be that quick? Mind you i thoguht they would be quicker with 150 bhp tbh.

Every time ive looked at fiesta st's i cant seem to pick a favourite colour.

White, black or red are my favourites but its a hard choice.
