Ford's estates have always looked better than the hatchbacks imo, but now the Fiesta has the same look. Big car looks and features on a small car, exactly what I'm looking for. My Focus can be a bit big at times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 This conversation is the same as the one we had when the fiesta 7.5 was released Once you start to see them in real life it'll grow on you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp999 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I somehow managed to nab my own first place last year, ahead of schedule. Definitely got to be first priority but I knew I'll always want a car too, so it's all factored in. Still got a mortgage even with the current PCP. My Focus deal runs out Oct 2018, but knowing the delays that can happen I'll prob just order a Fiesta ST if it looks good (and is available as a 5 Dr) as soon as order books open. I'm wondering what engine they will stick in it. There is going to be a 1.1 NA engine based on the 3 cylinder ecoboost. Perhaps a 1.1 turbo? They said they were considering a 3 pot for the next ST, it can make an amazing growl. Or perhaps just stick with the 1.6 again? It better not be the 1.5... I don't think it will make a good ST engine, no real tuning potential, difficult IC upgrade for example. Or maybe a 1.0 with hybrid turbo or electric motor?

alexp999 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The 1.5 has an integrated water cooled IC though, can't see tuning companies like Mountine liking that. You can't upgrade the IC very easily. Not good for an ST imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

666Damian666 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Surely they will push the power up so I'm expecting 200+ bhp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I've read that they said not to expect a big increase. So I'm expecting either a 180 bhp 3 cylinder or basically just the ST200 engine. Only so much power you can put through front wheels, my dad's 1.0 Fiesta can put more down than my Focus in the wet or through bends, lol.
