Having had a run of very slow boring cars for the past 8 years I decided that my beige 1.2 Micra had to go and picked up my Mk2 Focus ST3 on Friday. So far I've not been disappointed but the 30 mpg drop from my Micra has been quite noticeable, particularly given all the great roads up here in North Wales! I plan to keep it standard for now as I don't want to void my warranty yet.

I'll second that on the colour, very nice. smile
Is that Performance Blue?
I believe theres not much difference between Performance Blue and the current ST colour of Spirit Blue.

Thanks, I believe it is performance blue, the colour in the photo looks a bit off from in the flesh. It looks very different depending on the light. The wheels need a refurb too, I'm thinking white could look quite nice with the blue.

Whites OK if you have an escort rally car, but on the ST looks a bit Meh. I got mine done a slightly darker silver, which looks good or shadow chrome can look a bit more sensible. White wheels means cleaning on a daily basis too.

I would recommend charcoal/anthracite. Loved the blue it has such a deep shine.
