Very impressive, you look very quick round there. The car looks to have a really nice balance, never looks nose heavy but not snappy either. Bet its a lot of fun on track! Makes me want one!
I agree, the only time I found the pace an issue is on a track day at Anglesey where I felt like I was a mobile chicane on the straights! On a good back road I very rarely even give the pace a thought, it feels quick enough to have fun - it also prevents you from ending up at license losing...
Just thought id put in a quick update.
This is now the longest ive owned a car - thinking of keeping it now until I can afford an ST Fiesta.
Its got 4 new Goodyears on now and just had a 54k service at Suzuki where the aux belts, gearbox oil, brake fluid etc were changed and it had an mot...
I dont get why people are complaining about the vid, its just to highlight the noise that the turbo makes, if it wasn't recorded by the airbox as Mark says, you wouldn't be able to hear it!
Looks an awesome car, hoping to get one of these eventually!
I went to this, will post pics later in the week - nice photos above!
Agree with you on this, I wasnt expecting great things but it was a really good event!
I think he is talking about useable power, sure outright there prob isnt much in it, but real world flexibility I imagine it will be quicker than the Clio 200.
It is a nice looking car, its funny how many people recognise it as a Ferrari, not the obvious shape for one. Its not our car its a friends, really wish I had one, it sounds awesome!
Went over to Wales today in the Swift to see my mum taking part in the 3 Castles Historic Car Rally, thought I would post a few pics (she was driving the Dino) The trip up towards Bala from Lake Vyrnwn had some of the most amazing roads I have driven!
Great thanks for the response - sounds a good bit of kit!
Yes forgot you would be running it in! It sounds more economical than my Swift Sport (not surprising with tech moving on though)
Love this, I am pretty sure one of these will be my next car. What is the ride like in comparison with the 200? Is it firmer? Whats the economy looking like now you have done a few more miles? Im guessing it is still satisfying to use the revs?
Im going to drive both the ST and the RS when I get chance, my money would be on an ST in 18 months though at the moment once its lost the initial chunk of depreciation!
