Blandy Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hey guys! As you can tell I'm pretty new here. I've currently got a Frozen White Zetec S 1.0T on order (should be picking it up next week). I took it out on a test drive and fell in love with it. Bearing in mind I originally went to look at the ST, I'm glad I went with the Zetec S. I was just wondering what's everyone's opinions on them?

E5GDM Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I've got a frozen white Zetec S, it's not the fastest thing on the road but handles brilliantly & looks the part, especially with the St deffuser I put on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Not to mention good on fuel and no road tax, cheap insurance and look similar to the st especially as above when you've fitted the st rear diffuser. They've got sufficient acceleration when needed and once used to the lag/gears can be booted quite nicely. In my opinion there an all round good car.

Mental_Atom Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Watching this thread eagerly for comments as I should be buying one fairly soon! I like the fact that it has free tax and things, but to be honest it'll be nice to have a car that I know will go if I boot it, but isn't crazy fast. Coming from my current car I think anything too fast would be such a shock I'd just end up driving dangerously, but I do want some power under the pedals.

Blandy Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Glad to see everyone seems to like theirs! I'm literally like a child waiting for their presents at Christmas, I just want to pick it up now. Fortunately should have it this weekend or sometime next week!!

LightningMat Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 You'll love it! Certainly not a "fast" car, but it is quick enough for most roads, is fun to drive and economical too. 1.0 125 Zetec S on order! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisroberson99 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Welcome! I think the ZS is better looking than the ST! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mental_Atom Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Welcome! I think the ZS is better looking than the ST! This is probably gonna sound like an incredibly dumb question, but what are the main visual differences? I know the rear diffuser is different but other than that?

Nathan54771 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 The front end bumper and grills are different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mental_Atom Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 The front end bumper and grills are different Ah, I always thought they looked pretty similar. Having said that, it's logical the ST would look the "fanciest" as it's the highest spec! Never really looked at it as never considered buying an ST :) Sent from my One X+ using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky2013 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I loved my 1.0 zetec s great all round car, good grunt from the engine when giving it some juice and it's really cheap to run! Just watch out for all the chavs in limited edition corsa's who try to race you lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blandy Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 Sounds like I made the right choice! Going to the dealer tomorrow to sign some final paperwork. Hoping to have it early next week!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mental_Atom Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 While we're on topic(ish), does anyone have any pictures of what the ZS seats look like if you go for leather? I'm most likely not going to, but I'm intrigued :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly a stupid question, but are they comfortable and good quality? Do you prefer them over cloth?

mark t Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Well they're heated and don't stain as easily as cloth, it was already built so I didn't get a choice, but I like them. You can have mine from today, well maybe Monday :) Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mariner Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I have the full leather sport seats option in my Titanium and can say that they are very good quality indeed. Well worth the extra 800 notes :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
