The Dark Knight Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 Cheers. Looking forward to collecting it next week. Funnily enough, on the way home in the ZS I joined the A38 behind a Vauxhall Insignia turbo diesel which must have been a pretty powerful version because when we both floored it to join the slip road (it's a weird slip road with 2 entry points) before other cars caught us, he pulled away from me fairly comfortably. I felt like doing an Obi-Wan and saying "If you strike me down now, I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordanch Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 That's a really tidy car, love the look of a brand new car. Great colour choice ;) Those insignias are twin turbo diesels, that's probably why you thought it quick! 0-60 8.2 seconds and around 198bhp/295lb ft torque! Amazing bit of car I think, very underrated. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightningMat Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Looks v nice! I especially like the look of the rear without the number plate! Shame you have to put a plate on it. 1.0 125 Zetec S on order! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrylW91 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Lucky for some, still no news on mine :( Car looks great though! I hate that even once it has arrived at your local dealers, there is still a week to wait.. it's like the ultimate tease knowing it's just down the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecoboost125 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I waited 2 day's after mine was at the dealer, put through as a 'priority' as i was supposed to pick up on 16th my birthday. Rang them 2 days before and for the guy to ring back, he didn't so I was expecting my car on the 16th. The 16th came and no car, so on my Birthday I rang them up and made a right fuss, delivered on the wednesday 19 for pick up on Friday 21st :) Sent from my GT-I9300 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheriff Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I want an ST! But I've only had the ZS 2 months and the missus would serve me my own spuds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philf1 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Dave you're going to love it. I would have had red myself but my ZS was red so fancied the change. Hope you don't have to wait too long now. Any mods planned? I want an ST!But I've only had the ZS 2 months and the missus would serve me my own spuds. Haha. I'd had my ZS 10 months when I went and ordered the ST2. Didn't tell the wife until I got home with a handful of paperwork. She took it pretty well to be fair considering I'd only nipped to the supermarket for a couple of things. The grief arrived after delivery when she started asking for pressies to the same value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Knight Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 Not going to bother with mods Phil, not even mountune. Partly because I can't afford to and partly because it is more than fast enough anyway. The other aspect is that this is me bowing out of finance in a blaze of glory lol! At the end of the 2 year agreement it's bye bye ST and hello Del-Boy van lol! Can't afford finance if I am going to be getting my first house be it rent or mortgage. Unless I win some money in the interim lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Very nice Dave and very jealous ;) I would had done the same thing but no 5 door. Enjoy the car :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Knight Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 Cheers. I discovered at the dealers that mine is 'just' standard ST-2 and so it isn't keyless entry, just keyless start. Not that I am worried by that as I am quite happy with the standard key affair at the moment with the ZS. Insurance is £27 per month fully comp with protected NCB (paying £20 for the ZS) so pretty good. A couple of questions: 1: Is the ambient lighting more extensive on the ST-2? Only cupholders on my ZS 2: Any examples of key features accessible on the fancy colour screen menu? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambient lighting includes the cup holders, above the glove box, door pockets, front interior light and foot wells (these will be white so buy a couple of red bulbs they look much better) 2. Menu is pretty standard really similar to that on the rest of the range, I've not really explored it that musch just use what I need. It does have the hill assist on it and text reader not sure if others have that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecoboost125 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Footwell lights go out when you start the engine. A bit annoying, I think it would look amazing with the footwells, when I get ny red bulbs for them!

The Dark Knight Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Quick question guys, I've just removed the Phillips Bluevision bulbs from the ZS and will put them into the ST next weekend. Is the process any different with the ST having LED DRL's? I wondered if the connecting cable was different in some way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The leds aren't a serviceable item according to the manual. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
