Focus.

[Cliotoby]

Had it nearly 6 months and its covered 2300 miles so gave it a clean and stuff. Love it to bits and my only regret is that I will have to hand it back in 18 months. Also seemingly all Fiesta ST owners, or MK6 owners think I have something in common with them which is a nuisance. Similar 'level' cars like Focus ST, or those Seat Leons seem to look after you on the motorway, letting you in and out of traffic etc, kind of like a special club.

Process for the losers among us:
Clay
Gtechniq P1 with Rupes Yellow, Flex DA, minimal correction achieved.
IPA
CQUK
Sonax BSD
Wheels are 50/50 with CQUK and C5.

[_Tom]

Yep really like that. Lease?

 

[Cliotoby]

Thanks, yeah got an ok deal just before the face lift came out. Didnt test drive just got it based on a few PM's from @Jaff. . £2k, £180pcm, 2yr.

 

[Matt W]

Very nice.

I want one of these in a few years, estate in red!

 

[Stay Puft]

That is a lovely motor, just can never get my head around chucking 6.5k in 2yrs.

I checked the price of a new ST3 before I signed the rental agreement - IIRC it was about £25k. I looked at two year old models and they were circa £16k.

So seemed like a decent enough deal and I dont have to worry about tax or selling it. Defo going to look at another in 18 months if I can grab a reasonable lease on one.

Anyways all relative etc - its peanuts really.

Alot of car for 180 quid a month (besides the 2k deposit obviously)

Looks nice

Id have one over the fiesta tbh

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

That is lovely, Toby.

I had a play with one the other day, they go seriously well. We were doing silly speeds.

 

[Craig]

That looks very nice mate

 

[Gally]

Lovely mate. Colour is perfect for them and the steering is a work of art on the Focus and Fiesta imo.

 

[Jack!]

Would have that over the Fiesta 100%.

 

[Al_G]

Thats a bargain at 180 per month.

 

[MarkCup]

You don't have anything in common with a Fiesta ST? Really?

They're very similar cars, yours just happens to weigh quite a bit more so has more power to cope with its bulk.
