New 2013 Fiesta ST 1.6 Turbo
Discussion
Bought a 2013 ST-2 privately on Wednesday. Previous owner has looked after it impeccably, it's still like a brand new car. Has the style pack, Satnav and Climate Control. Has also had the Mountune upgrade and a short shifter fitted.
Coming from a a 5 year old Swift Sport, the drive home was somewhat eye opening. The acceleration in any gear is something else and the car handles great. It's also a lovely place to sit and while the ride can occasionally feel a little firm, the 2 hour drive back was a joy.
Absolutely delighted with it and can see this being a car I keep for a long time. Like the fact that it seems to be bit of a head turner too as it really is a good looking car from the rear and side on (I know the front splits opinion)
On a side note, does anyone know if the Sony sync system can play music from a phone through bluetooth? Or does it need to be connected by either the aux cable or usb? I was trying to figure it out last night but didn't have much luck.

How are you finding the lack of cruise?
I'm right on the edge of changing from a clio 197 FF to one of these but an ST-3 is out my budget.
I managed to get it for just over £13,500. 10,000 miles and with the options listed above plus the mountune upgrade and short shifter fitted. He'd also added one or two subtle touches to finish the car off nicely inside. An added bonus was that he had taken out a 3 year service plan and it can be transferred over so 2 free services!I'm right on the edge of changing from a clio 197 FF to one of these but an ST-3 is out my budget.
As for the cruise, it'd be great to have and I'm looking in to the option of retro fitting but it wouldn't be a deal breaker for me. I guess it depends if you do a lot of motorway miles. It is a fantastic car though
It seems to me that a lot of people have taken these out on ridiculous finance deals and are now looking to get rid 12 months on. So it's well worth putting a cheeky offer in on any you like the look of
