ayrshiredude Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 So got my new ZS Red edition. Was wondering is this the normal engine bay? I would have thought there should have been some type of plastic cover over all this engine parts as it looks kind of a mess as it is. Or is this it? Any thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackD_117 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 They don't seem to come with engine covers mate. You can buy them from http://www.fordpartsuk.com/ there's a couple of guys on here who have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paramanic Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 they dont come with a cover because it doesnt need one got told from a ford engineer that because the fiesta bonnet is sealed it doesnt need one :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Running cost were to much and that's what done it for me. Yes it was a rocket but filling up every other day wasn't so much fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrshiredude Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 How are you finding the car after having an ST ? Well its not the ST thats for sure lol. It is quieter and a hell of a better ride quality compared to the ST. Its obviously not as powerful but its still pretty good, just doesn't have that throw you into your seat raw acceleration. I think the thing I miss the most though are the Recaro seats and the keyless entry/button start. I keep leaving the key in the ignition and having to go back into the car for it lol. Its costing me £80 per month less and at the moment thats a big saving. Its still a nice car so I'm happy. Doing a few things to modify it like fitting ambient lighting above the glovebox, S badges, changed all the bulbs, changing the footwell lights to red to match the Ambient lighting.

Willy Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Mountune it to 165bhp and it'll be like having the ST back but with the same ride quality 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
