Got round to washing the beast yesterday, though halfway through it started to rain. Finished washing her anyway and snapped a quick pic on the camera:
No more updates really. I have the new splitter sitting in the garage awaiting fitting in the spring. Still really enjoying the car. MPG is now up to 38.5. Gonna try and get her dyno'd next month to see just how she compares to the old 200.

Its how they should come from factory IMO, really sets the car apart from the others in the range.
Looks too boy racer IMO.
the fiesta looks spot on as standard, the "beefing up" on the standard cars to look like the st have spoiled its "uniqueness"
Looks bloody great. I'd get one next but I really don't like the cabin/dash.
Just too much going on for my VAG understated tastes

I think it just looks boy racer on that St is posted above with its slammed suspension and aftermarket wheels. Looks a lot better on standard STs imo.

I like the front splitter, takes your eyes away from the fish mouth above it.
Lovely black one of these in the work car park today.

You got yours yet?
Delayed. Was meant to come today. It's on the transporter (or whatever). Will be with me in the next few days.
Signed all my paperwork today and got my number plate etc. Absolutely cannot wait now!!

Splitter looks great Noddie, really noticeable but subtle at the same time.
F***. I'd be climbing the walls by now...bet you can't wait!?

Yup. I've been able to keep it out of my head since ordering. This past week, I've been ridiculously excited, as it actually feels real now!

Nearly 3 years ago Emma and I done a highlands roadtrip in the old Clio 200 and wanted to do something similar in the Fiesta. So last weekend Emma’s mum was free to watch the wee man Friday and Saturday night so a quick Google maps research of our old route and a couple of phone calls to book the hotels and the planning was done.
The route:
Day 1: Cumbernauld to Invergarry via Lochearnhead, Crainlarich, Clifton, Connel, Lettermore, Fort William & Spean Bridge
Day 2: Invergarry to Thurso via Nostie, Strathcarron, Tornapress, Applecross, Gairloch, Ullapool, Durness & Tongue
Day 3: Thurso to Cumbernauld via John O'Groats & Inverness
Not many pics from Friday’s journey up to Invergarry. Was late and getting dark.
Day 1. First stop:
Second Stop:
The hotel (Invergarry Hotel):
Day 2. Map of Scotland Viewpoint (Obvious really):
Eilean Donan Castle:
A spot between Kyle of Lochalsh and Strathcarron:
The Bealach Na Ba (Applecross Road):
The Bealach Na Ba (Down the other side):
The coastal road from Applecross to Gairloch:
The hairy coo:
More from the coastal road to Gairloch:
Stopped here for lunch as she was feeling sick lol:
More coastal road:
Not bad 360 degree view:
Cool auld hoos:
Another auld hoos (Not much of it left though):
Didn’t venture out onto the pier this time as the ground was so soft:
Wanted to see what was in here but couldn’t:
The road from Durness to Tongue (Not advisable in the dark lol):
Day 3. Popped over to John O’Groats (Though there aint much to see):
Passed this big hoos on the way down the east coast road:
Last pic (For now). Stopped off in Pitlochry for yet another toilet break:
Some more pics will be added later, as well as some vids.

Superb mate, did similar last year but over a bit longer, loved it, was a superb trip. The Ullspool to tongue road is one of the best I've ever been on. You missed out on some views by doing it in the dark!

We have done this route previously in our old 200 though spread it over another day. The views are epic.
The ST was much easier to live with on the trip tbh. Nicer place to be, better seats and the extra performance really does aid overtaking on the single-carriageways.
I definitely will. Emma and I are off the week of 7th April so that'd be the best time for us?
Fiesta ST-2
What splitter is that mate? Looks much better.
i have one on order exactly the same as yours (best colour :rasp
.
Not due at the suppliers until the 7th of July unfortunately. Gutted.
