roocat Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hi all. Ordered a Red edition, with (free) option to not have contrasting colors (so all red), anyone who has experience with that? I've been searching photos on the net but haven't found any of it. Living in Belgium, delivery time is estimated at 8 weeks. Is this possible in the UK?

dfriel2 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Is this possible in the UK? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC no.. although when I picked mine up, the other Red Edition delivered had not had the roof painted - sounds like the paint shop may have made a mistake and they are looking to offload the cars.

tommeke_B Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 no.. although when I picked mine up, the other Red Edition delivered had not had the roof painted - sounds like the paint shop may have made a mistake and they are looking to offload the cars. In Belgium it's available. When I went to order mine you could choose it as an option to have "not-contrasting colors for mirrors and roof". Was available for both black and red... ;) Can't really believe it could be a mistake of paint shop to be honest, I ordered a car, didn't buy a stock car. Anyway I'll try to post some pics here when it's delivered (another almost 8 weeks to wait). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ffoxy Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Very nice... Did the test drive impress? I love everything about the Ecoboost motor and these later cars seem to be much better in terms of solid feel, build quality and rigidity. I'm sure you'll love it!

Ffoxy Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Have you driven a 1.0 Ecoboost at all? What car did you have before? Sorry I see it was a 2.0 Focus diesel. Fun time ahead for you!

panjuices Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 So - the delivery date is set at 2nd March. Wasn't really fussed about the plate (it's a lease) but the parking situation at Chez Panjuices at the moment has meant it's easier this way. With this in mind if you could have your first time (ooh err) again with your motor what would change? Are there any gotchas I should be looking for? Obviously I'll do the allround inspection but I've heard of pants paint coverage so I'll pay special attention to that and someone else I believe had a shot radio which was harder than it should have been to fix so that's an easy one.

bezzer Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Glad your leasing company have given you a date, I'm still waiting for my Red Edition. They told me the dealer was expecting it in at the end of last week, when I asked on Tuesday they said it should with them the beginning of next. Apparently its been held back for 'Quality Control" HA!!!!! wonder how many times that ones used by leasing companies. Its funny how you get told one date when signing up, & then as soon as that date comes the excuses start coming. Anyway I've got a sheet to fill out when I look over the car on delivery. No doubt I'll miss something that will come back to bite me on the !Removed!! :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkanah Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hi everyone, I'm from Norway and recently found this forum after buying a Fiesta Red Edition 1.0. I've had it for one week and so far it's been a pleasure. Quite potent little thing although the climate and season has leaves a lot to be desired. Here's my car wrapped in dirty snow. :-( ...

They're in store for a couple of more months. I really have to use my set of winter tyres now when snow and ice is at its peak, I look forward to spring you might say. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgooderham94 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Oh I see, good to see your using a nice set of alloys even with winter tyres, are these 16's? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC No, they're actually 15's. I had to have something nice even during winter so I ordered those. Think they look ok.

afrocleland Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Anyone tempted to remap??http://www.superchips.co.uk/search?make=9&fueltype=3&model=1&variant=3075 175bhp and 287nm apparently! Someone do the right thing and do it so the rest of us can make a more informed decision :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgooderham94 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Very tempted! Although I'd rather wait to see what Mountune have up there sleeve. Would prefer to keep warranty. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ffoxy Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 With the Ecoboosted cars feeling so light at the front I get wheel spin up in 1st and 2nd without trying on some minor wet hills when I drive hard... And my car is standard. It's gonna be a LOT worse if that sort of power gets delivered in a big dolop across the revs range. I'm keen to see how these remaps pan out.
