Will-MK7 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Finally thought I would start up a feed after having the car now for a month and loving every minute of it. The only bad thing at the moment is the amount of people that want to race you in there corsa's but hey ho! Right after selling my S1600 after a year I decided I wanted the St. I new exactly what spec I wanted it was just a rare one to find, well so I thought but lucky for me there was one only 20 miles away which was the exact one I wanted. So here she is Molten orange, Style Pack, Mp215 mountune kit and the Red Recaros. I've already started with some upgrading that I didn't sell from my old car not much but just a little to start off. These have all been fitted to the car, wasn't to keen on the wind deflectors at first but they have grown on me. Headlight bulbs was changed to Osram night breakers which I had in my old car and really did make a difference at night! Changed indicator bulbs to chrome bulbs to get rid of the fried egg look and also changed my reversing bulbs to Cree led. The last thing I did was add the shorter ford richbrook aerial which I think looks so much better. Things I am planning to add to the car when finds allow me to haha. Mountune Floor mats and boot mat. Mountune leather gear gaiter. Spray the dull plastics to a nice gloss black to math the St grill that's standard. Like some colour in my engine bay, Phil gave me his idea from his great feed he has done, so thanks Phil (sorry don't know your user name) Mountune intake hose. To the maybes now as I haven't seen any reviews on these items yet. Mountune cat back exhaust and intercooler. But not too sure as of the price of them haha! Sorry for the long story and thanks if you have got this far! Hope you like it! Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieM Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Looks good mate and plans sound good. This is exactly what i would have got but the focus caught my eye too much. Can get the mountune exhaust / intercooler on mountunestore.com. there's a few videos on YouTube if you wanted to hear what it sounds like first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause I was mixed between the old and the new focus cause they look mint! Yeah I've seen them on there they are just a heavy price, when you can get something similar for cheaper but I would want to keep the warranty that's the only problem. ok mate I will have a look on YouTube cheers Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers bud, yeah the colour looks awesome in the sun, I liked the black aswell but I thought the orange you just don't see many so I wanted to be unique haha. How are you getting on with your car?

There was only £500 negative equity in my current car which i covered with a deposit. so each time i get a new one it works out as if i don't owe them anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will-MK7 Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 Just a little update not been able to do much due to funds and birthdays etc! Managed to buy and fit a forge blow off valve yesterday it makes a great sound! Will upload a video from my dash cam when that's installed on the weekend!

Will-MK7 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 Dash cam is all set up and ready to go now, also changed my footwell lights to red to match the other lights in the interior. How do you upload videos? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Upload to YouTube then link it. Mountune will be selling cheaper at fordfair if you're after upgrades. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will-MK7 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 Ok I will give it ago. I've already contacted them about the cat back but they said the batch they've had in have already been pre sold. So they said it will be unlikely for them to have it at ford fair which is annoying as that's what I wanted next haha Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will-MK7 Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 Just before I go on holiday I thought I'd make an update. One of my Osram night breakers decided to blow so I've had to change the dipped beam lights. As I was doing that I decided to put some led fog lights in aswell. I've finally got some lowering springs (Eibach Redline), mountune intake hose, got some other bits coming after my holiday, Forge Blow off valve (been fitted) but just can't upload the video and don't really want to add it to YouTube as my internet is too slow. Should all be on within the next few weeks so watch his space. The picture of the lights are the night breakers. Will get a night picture of the Philips diamond visions.

Will-MK7 Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Here's a little update, now I'm back from my holiday I could fit my springs at work 20-25mm drop it says. See what you guys think. Before. The last photo is of the car when it just had the front springs in on the front. Overall I'm very happy with it sits a lot nicer, handles better and doesn't look like it on stilts anymore!
