I had the use of a 1.0 Zetec so went out and did this... LOL at the looooooooooooong gearing! Despite that it feels a hell of a lot quicker than it looks.

Don't forget to loosen the brake fluid reservoir cap off or pressing the pistons back in to give space for the new thick meaty pads will be a b*tch.

I have a HD2 and it limits the file size so that when recording 1080p it splits into 17mins in each file. It's standard practice I think.

Nice, I'll have a proper look through it all later.

Wow! Any other pics available of the Toledo? My old man gave me his, HKW 480N, in the exact same colour of yours...I drove it for three years and put 120k miles on it...cheap motoring! I learned so much about driving, mechanics and maintenance owning that thing, great fun LOL

Enjoy!

PMd. Thanks Matt.

Nailed.

17!!! I'm looking forward to seeing and hearing all these thrashing around...fingers crossed the weather will be kind.

The once fitted on mine are 83W, the ones linked to are 84W. Does that really make any difference?

ST1 - non-Sony unit with voice control and Bluetooth ST2/3 - Sony DAB unit with voice control and Bluetooth The sat-nav is, I believe, by default a Sony unit. There are no sound-system upgrades as such other than taking an ST2/3 over the ST1 for the better head unit and additional speakers (8...

205s and 40 profile gally, would like to stick to OEM size. Someone on STOC has just linked me to tyreleader.co.uk and they seem to have some in stock...will get them ordered ASAP! http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres/bridgestone/potenza-re050a/205-40-r17-84w-243461

F***. F***. F***. F***. F***. Bridgestone RE050s are nowhere to be found online in the Fiesta's size...stock was showing on Blackcircloes two weeks ago...I should have ordered some then! Looks like I will have to try something different! Unless N0ddie can point me in the right direction???

I kept the revs below 5k for a few hundred (not hard as so much torque is available) then as the miles progressed I wound it a little higher with bigger throttle openings. Main thing for me was/is to keep it varied but don't labour it though. Even though they will happily pull you up a hill in...

He he. Finally, people are beginning to realise that all the supposed fanboy journalism from a year ago was actually completely warranted...as a car they really really are fantastic little things!

Nice! Try again when it's dry? Can you find some smooth/new asphalt to do it on? My 'route' has recently had some put down so we'd be comparing like for like.

I've stuck a flat mount for mine right behind the rear view mirror; I can't see it when driving and it captures what's ahead very well...

Make sure it's together and running well by August at the latest!

Great wear rate and really bad luck, that's harsh with 6.5 mm remaining!

Chuckle... http://www.fiestastoc.com/forums/topic/123770-bridgestone-potenza-replacement/ It must be because they spin up when they floor it in first gear in the wet. As said above, I can find no fault with these tyres at all so really hope they've not been phased out!

I like that colour :o

There has to be balance in everything...to say you are an idiot if you don't spend the absolute most you can on a tyre is ridiculous. I suppose those that do insist their missus drives around wearing a crash helmet as well for that extra element of safety just in case? If not, why not?

Agreed, my original choice was blue until I got so impatient I couldn't wait!

Well, unless you could insure the hassle factor of a non-like-for-like replacement...you're stuck! Until such a policy is offered (maybe there's an opening here for Apple?) it's the hardware only you are insuring and a 5C is close enough to a 5 for the insurance companies to effectively say...

Why should you get a phone with a better spec to replace the one you lost? In car terms, that would be like claiming for the loss of a Focus ST and demanding instead a newly released Focus RS as that is now top of the range. Yeah right, you think insurance works that way? It exists to put you...

That's not different though...it's the same as 90% of the other DMB-addicted ST owners out there with non-standard badges. Would have been more individual if you left them as Henry intended.

Dab of oppo yet?

I can't comment really Gally as whilst I do encounter a fair bit of standing water on my commute, it tends to be at 40mph or less. At that speed, as things currently stand, they're adequate...I wouldn't be too keen to plough through deep puddles at twice that speed though. Apart from that...

Tyre tread depths are currently; 2x 2.1mm 2x 2.6mm I'm seriously impressed with these Bridgestone RE050 tyres...this is after 16,000 miles and one very hot mid-summer Goodwood trackday. I should see 17,000, maybe 17,500 out of a set.
