Don't confuse ST & ST-Line, they're very different cars.  ST-Line is just a trim level with standard engines.  The ST is the proper 'flagship' sports model with a 270bhp 2.3 EcoBoost engine.

If your local Evans Halshaw is decent then it makes sense to stick with them, even if you have to pay a bit extra.  I haven't been impressed with any of the dealers that I've 'dealt' with in the last couple of years.  Decent ones seem few & far between!

Ohh right okay my bad yeah the ST line i mean as i definitely don't want the ST lol, so far my local has been decent as the gearbox started juddering and stuff so they took the car back and fixed it and gave me a 2020 Fiesta with the 1.0 funnily enough to drive around in for 2 weeks, think i'll keep checking ES for one if not maybe private sale on AT and got my mind made up on a 1.5tdi now.

Luckily no! It's a brand new Skoda Superb. Nice car to drive but not my cup of tea.

If I do get another one I'll  either go for a facelift one (mhev), a 1.5 st-line x or go back to Vauxhall. I'm really starting to miss my GTC Coupe.

Just an update on my Focus. Got a call from my delaship saying that Ford had been in contact and they think they have found the issue. Apparently the was a 'bug' in the PCM software which wasn't sending enough power to turbo. They have updated the PCM software. tested the car to the n'th degree and I get the car back tomorrow.

I'm not sure how I feel... lol
