Mk8 Delivery Delays?

The LEDs are auto levelling, so the light controls are different. It also means there will need to be sensors on the suspension to detect angle the car is at. Then it all needs programming.

Thanks. That’s a shame. I’ll stuck with the ones that come with the car.

    Just got home with this! Due to collect this morning but delayed due to blizzard! Only managed the few miles from the dealers but will post some comments when I get chance for a proper drive. Must say

  • Ok, finally a picture, 8 months in the waiting.

Dealer told me last week they've discontinued the Deep Impact Blue on the Fiesta range.

Shame about how much work it would take to fit LED's aftermarket - I guess its unlikely its a job Ford would offer.

Really? Surprising. It’s a really nice colour. So glad I got mine before it was discontinued.

Photos - Any of you guys down south got any good pics of ST line X  especially want to see black one as I see orders are starting to come through now, I have had order on since Aug & hoping to receive shadow black ST line X in next 2 weeks.

Off topic a bit but...


Does anyone know if the new ST-Line X will have auto folding door mirrors (i.e when you lock and unlock the car)?

Yes, on the X they fold in on locking and unfold when you unlock the car. Also a button inside to fold/unfold manually.

sorry off topic but does anyone know if dealer priority code 05 is good or bad and what does it mean ?

Thank you - couldn't find that info anywhere.

05 is the standard code that all orders get why they are sold. It means it will come quicker than stock cars which are just for display purpose.

Just picked up my Fiesta ST Line yesterday after placing order and deposit in August 17.  Hope you've got yours now.

What do we all think of the new design?

I like the front angry shark but not keen on the flat back end with no obvious splitter  and slightly too rounded. I think ill look at at splitter when they become available.

Comfort and drive is excellent very quiet compared to my 2014 titanium 

getting used to the screen although i keep wanting to store it away as it feel in ya face at the moment! 

 

Just heard from the dealer that mine has been segmented...things are slowly moving forward for mine :smile:

Looks nice but it shouldn't have been registered until the day you collected. They were obviously just trying to fiddle their sales figures and "sell" some cars early.

Nice looking car, but I'll agree with what Alex said, I've never had to register a car whenever I've ordered them for my customers. They've been looking to meet a February target by doing that.

Had a call from the dealership. It’s in the country at their compound :) He’s going to get it tomorrow and do the pre handover check and then it will be trailered up to me. 

He did mention something about due to the ‘Reg Date’ I may have to wait a week before he can hand it over to me not sure what that means. Though on my Ford Finance paperwork I got last week. It did have a future Reg Date of 15/3/18?

 

Slightly off topic. I just ordered a ST Line 140ps in Race Red. No options. Not too fussed however. Looking forward to it! Originally wanted a Focus but happy with my purchase. 2-3 weeks delivery time as its already built and waiting in Holland 😁.

Also:

I work in Barking and Dagenham, near the Ford plant. Noticed over the past couple of days a load of trucks carrying ST Line Fiestas travelling up and down A13/A406 and out the factory. Hopefully some people on this forum will get their cars early! 

anyone know how long it takes for the car to go from DAGTOPS to DAGRAIL ?

Might take a while if the trains weren't running but the boats were as there will be a back log. They won't want to be sat on it any longer than they have to though.
