nath.mk7.st Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Does anyone know if the fiesta ST has a limited to speed due to law n not what it can actually do. Like a limiter on it ? If so can it be removed :P Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyCat Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I think the limit is how much your pants fill up before you give in and have to stop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky2013 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Lol to be honest I don't get too boot mine too much above 70, traffic to and from work on the m27, go out in the forest and can't do more than 40/50 because of horses and other animals, I go out at night on the motorway and get pulled over for 'being out too late' . Im Feeling a track day soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4RC Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 It'll easily do 120-30. Mines is only a 1.6 diesel and I've had 120 out of it... On a private road of coarse ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky2013 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Fair but that's on a dyno so not road conditions. No wind friction etc , but saying that it did look like it could keep going! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary.J Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Would be nice to be able to get 155 mph, but with the tolerances allowed up to 10% then it's likely the car is running below that, closer to 139 than 155. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeccaaCat Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 My ZS has 155bhp and I've had 130 out of it (on private land :p) so im sure the ST can do better! Sent from my SM-G900F using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Ford OC Did anyone notice how the seatbelt warning light came on at 140? Must have been worried it was going to come off the rollers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
