Mountune is the sensible choice, currently they are only offering the 215ps upgrade but it gives a huge slug of torque which is where the benefits are felt.

It really is a fun chassis and as Snoopy says the physical size of it really helps  :cool:

I've not read a bad thing about the fiesta st, I totally agree with everything else written here its a proper little hot hatch and the mountune upgrade is ford approved so that's the route I would take.

I had a mountuned ST for 6 months this year, was a cracking drive and the MP215 kit made a lot of difference mid range.
However I found the ride pretty unforgiving, and the interior is quite cheap and basic compared to a Golf. They are really common around my way as well.

The ride is firm, and the interior is basic Fiesta fair but that's part of the no nonsense charm.

Mountune will be organised at some point :evil:

Its a bit of a throwback hot hatch and is great fun to drive. Mountune is a must!

Just had a chat with a dealer about a Mk7 R and I was very very pleased with the figures! Time for some serious decision making  :evil:

The car I am interested in is a very high spec car, more than I wanted and the discount was way over 10%  :shocked:
