Part-exd mine after 12 months and it went up at the dealer for 16k and was gone in a couple of days. Was as new though. Would have leased mine but intended to keep it a few years when I bought it. Oh well, only money haha
I've probably got the most desirable least desirable model! Immaculate 10 year old 21k miler garaged from new RB 182.......cup [emoji3]
I'd love a black 200 and would have one tomorrow for a daily if the gearbox wasn't an issue
Mine rarely makes an appearance these days. I had my ST and 182 parked on the drive a few weeks ago and a delivery guy was asking about the 182. In fact quite a few delivery people ask about the 182!
The guys at the MOT garage love it and comment on how mint it is.
Focus not for me, need a sensible family car and got a good deal on the one we are getting. I'm seriously tempted to offer them the Clio plus the difference in cash and buying the ST outright? What do you reckon? Or keep the cash, move on and run the 1.2 into the ground given that I only really...
St2 mountune and nav. It's a 63 plate on 4k in SB and there are 14 plates going up on forecourts near me for under 15k so it's only going to worth what is owed.
I was fully intent on keeping it long term and was going to buy it outright but the garage persuaded me to go down the PCP route as I didn't have to shell out plus APR was 4%.
I then found out that we were expecting a baby and we've recently been struggling getting his seat in and out of our...
Going to have to block all these ST threads! Mine goes back tomorrow after a year of ownership and a bucket load of depreciation to be replaced by a 1.0t focus [emoji21]
Was tempted to buy it for the 13.5k owed but unfortunately head has to rule heart. Bloody great car and very sad to see it go.
After majorly pissing about this week I've made the sensible grown up (and seriously boring) decision to swap my year old mountuned Fiesta ST2 for a new focus 1.0ecoboost. Little bit gutted but needs must. Wife has a 1.2 09 plate Clio dynamique and I also opted to trade that in as thought don't...
Mines mega low as hardly use the car so it's sits in the garage all week. Even my fiesta St has only covered 3.5k in its first year and I use that lol.
I just love taking it out for the occasional spin, still feels special even though it's only a clio. I don't need to sell it and it owes me...
I've just bought a retro pi with a few hundred games on for nes, snes, megadrive and master - pretty good really for what it is. Most work fine with the odd one running blocky.
No rattles and coming up to 12 months old. Only gripe is the boot is too small to fit my lads pram in where as easily fits in my wife's 09 Clio. Ah well.
39 and drive a fiesta st mountune daily and also own a 182 cup. Possibly have to swap one for something more child friendly at some point soon, although will prob keep both and swap the wife's Clio instead!
I'm too of this opinion, however I bought my 182 new in 2004 and specced the stripes. The car has lived an easy life being garaged for the majority of the time, but I still fear a difference in paint colour if I were to remove them so they're staying put.
I quite like that they're part of the...
That'd make you 17ish then if you were 7 and saw a 182cup parked on your road?
That makes me feel bloody old! I can't think of one car when I was seven that I'd have wanted at 17, they'd have all rusted to bits!
Do the 182s not seem a bit dated now to you?
By the way, enjoy the car!
Mine doesn't get out enough to get commented on, but was chatting to one of my neighbours' mums a couple of weeks ago. She's in her seventies and came to ask how I kept my car so nice and that she really likes the twin exhaust!
Had a courier drop something off and he was well into his fords and...
Never said the cars are a menace, far from it they are great cars. Keep coming across threads about belts snapping, and yes you're right, neglect is the cause.
It's not really cuntish to the OP, just a standard CS response for posts containing the word brought instead of bought.
