Very nice.

Love the detailing on the engine bay.

Not really the right question to ask, but with this level of power is it very different on MPG to standard?

Looks nice and clean, worthwhile mods too.

Is it an ST500?

Gorgeous car, love those pipes!

These have really grown on me since first release

Any idea on when the facelift ST is due?

Aren't ST500's all red leather interior?

I really like STs I just get put off by the supposed real world mpg. Other than that I think it is one of the most complete cars you can get in terms of enough performance and practicality that it probably suits 99.9% of situations you would find yourself in.

It's alot easier to go faster now, which effects MPG when making you hoon about all the time, but if you nurse it like you have to do with the standard cars, you can see similar figures.

I'm not wild about the stickers, but it looks pretty good otherwise.

Lovely Sanitary Towel you have there. Normally don't like the whole coloured bits inside the engine bay but must say it does look good on this car.

I have no interest in focuses (foci?) at all really but actually really like yours. Nice mods (a real sleeper with that power, must go like stink) and you've kept it fairly standard looking which is always a bonus. The few external mods improve the look for me smile

lol that car is not even remotely a sleeper.

seems 95% of people these days don't understand what a sleeper is.
