    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    You've made me think about my depreciation calculation, I'm going to revisit it.

    205 t16

    There is that point! i love them too, posters on the wall, countless Airfix/Tamiya models built, painted, destroyed, radio controlled models abused and trashed, that was my teens...but I always thought both road and rally versions were fire breathing monsters. Hence the shock of finding out my...

    205 t16

    I just looked up the spec for these and wish I hadn't. My childhood dreams, ruined. 200bhp and 188lbsft. LOL Oh dear.

    iPhone 6 thread.

    How many people use some form of a case? It makes perfect sense if so as the lens isn't then sunk into a recess. My Nexus 6 is just like this, when it's in its case it's perfect. When it's naked its barely noticeable. Apple will convince you it's a good thing surely!?

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    As RDH said of all my costs so far, just over half has been depreciation. This is based on my 1 year 3 month old car with 25k miles on it being sellable privately for £10,500. Considering how swamped the market is I think that's a fair valuation.

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    Thanks Chris, will do. I looked back recently through some footage of my first trackday at Goodwood when it was 9 weeks old and had just 3,000 miles on it. Even though I knew what to expect it was still quite a surprise to find how good it feels and goes...

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    I will, they price above, £407 is for the parts only. Compared to brakes for either of my Clios bought from G 172 that's eye watering!

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    Time for another cost update... Mileage now is just over 24k, second service is booked a couple weeks from now, a front suspension knock and a driver's door seal that's come unstuck will need attention, other than that it's spot on. Starting to lose the tautness in the drive train now though as...

    Matthew's VW Tiguan

    He he. Throw on some wind deflectors and a triple-R splitter and a build no. sticker and some mountune side-splash decals and split your headlights and paint them black inside and you're properly in the 'club' ;) Having said that I'm being strangely drawn to these bulbs...

    Vibration from brakes on track only?

    It should be OK, but keep regularly checking them visually just to be sure. So long as you stop as well as you should when you press the middle pedal, be happy.

    Vibration from brakes on track only?

    I went through three sets of calipers on my 172 from this over 100k miles. Wear in the sliders was allowing half of the caliper to rock a little giving the vibration but only when they were very very hot and being used very very hard. Under normal use, like you, I had no issue at all. I...

    Edition 38

    Great show, great weather, stupid/pointless cars.

    My Blue Fiesta

    I find it at least on a par and arguably a little better than either of my Clios (172 and 200). I'm still almost 100% rattle free after 24k miles pounding along broken country back roads, carpets still look good, leather shows no sign of age, everything's still tight and taut. The best bit for...

    Close encounters........of the porsche kind!!!

    That's all well and good but we know that CS law dictates you must stop immediately without any consideration of your own safety or that of vehicles coming around the blind bend/over the crest. That was a proper heart in mouth moment.

    N0ddie's Fiesta ST

    When I mount mine I just use blu-tac glu-dots. No outer case needed, just stick a few on the base of the go pro then stick it in place, holds it firm enough for a track session, then you simply pull it off and roll the glu-dots off. I had a go pro sticky pad mount on the steering wheel cowl on...

    Very nice! Looks like it's limiting torque in the lower gears, are you able to log your boost?

    Oooooh, I like that. Can't wait to see/hear it once complete.

    Clio V6 Owners/Buyers thread.

    I'd say yours was kind of in the middle...there were lots that were noticeably louder driving by and many quieter too, yours is sort of just enough.

    Tidy laps sir, great lines ;) I'll have you flat through Fordwater next time :race: Great to catch up, perfect place to do it too!

    DrR's Race Red Fiesta ST-3

    There's an exhaust due for release soon and you can already get their intercooler and induction hose...we're all just waiting for the map to go with it. They recently said September release for the 'stage 2' so it's expected a few months from now.

    DrR's Race Red Fiesta ST-3

    Exactly the same seat but you can get full leather in the focus. Partial leather only on the fiesta, orange like mine and grey like this one. Only grey with red or blue body colours though, choice of either with black, white, and orange paint.

    Here's mine, can't you just grab yours and 're-align' it? Mine seems to have a bit of movement available...

    Do you want them just because you don't have them? Did you not notice from how they light up the road?

    DrR's Race Red Fiesta ST-3

    ST2 and ST3 come with projector headlights but not xenon bulbs, the ST1 are reflector units.

    Oh yeah, I haven't noticed that on mine at all...will check it in a bit...

    Horror

    I don't either...I just make sure the car immediately in front of me gets no bigger. If it does, I brake harder.
