    Searching for the ST's replacement!
  1. On his car the front side windoes have to allow atleast 70% of visible light to be transmitted from the factory they will probably already be about 75% at a guess so just about any film will make them illegal. Trust me I enforce this!
  2. Tinting the front windows would make them illegal!
  3. I used to have a 2005 1.6 115ps Ghia and that much better than that, my current car and ST-2 also achieves better than that!
  4. Or a Ghia then just change the stereo surround which is what I did when I had one! The Ghia has everything you will need including cruise control, auto lights, wipers, dimming mirror, electric rear windows and global close all stuff you dont get on a Zetec.
  5. How old is the car? The wheels on my 05 reg Ghia did that and as the car was just over a year old but they changed all 4 wheels under warranty / goodwill. Though I just noticed your wheels are not Ford are they?
  6. I've just been looking at this on the Ford website amazing how tempted I would be to change my ST2 for one of these with the 2.0 diesel engine and a great list of options.................
  7. WOW! That fuel economy is little better than what my ST achieves!!
  8. The door mirrors will fold, as I fold them on my ST to stop them being knocked off! Just push them a little more firmly.
  9. Think yourself lucky just put my ST in first offered just over £9000 the second was £8900 cannot help thinking costs of fuel and future road tax affect price of my car. I think I shall be keeping mine for some years to come.
  10. In Feburary 2007 I sold my 05 reg Focus Ghia which was a 1.6 Ti-VCT I got about £7500. I sold it using the following company. http://www.wewillbuyyourcar.com/ or there is http://www.webuyanycar.com/ Why not see what they offer, I'd guess what I got would have been close to trade value but I needed to get rid fast as I was buying my ST privately.
  11. When mine was last serviced I queried the corrosion check having not been stamped. I was informed that is a service which they now charge for and would be glad to carry out the check if I paid. Needless to say I assume my corrosion warranty is now void!
  12. From experience of my previous Focus Ghia which had rear drums and my fathers Fiesta the rear drums seem to rust rather quickly. I used black Hammerite spray on the rear drums and works rather well.
  13. I had the colour coded washer jets from Torquestreer for my ST2, I am adamant they were not properly primed or laquered and so the paint started to come off. I have since resorted to rubbing them down and doing them myself, I have achieved a much better finish than they did!!
  14. They are all like it, some some extent. Both the ST I have now and my previous Ghia suffered, as did the 52 reg Mondeo I used to have. Cant say I ever noticed on the mark one Focus I had many moons ago.
  15. Looks right to me but try Tezza or your local dealer might be cheaper!!
