Great drive in just about any car.
A sunroof or drop top enhances the experience. If only they would ban the slow pokes and make it one way it would be the best drive in the world. |

Apart from the drive, you you can gain some brownie points with your better halves by spending a romantic weekend in one of the many B&b's in the area, Great part of the country. Your better halves will think you are the best thing since sliced bread, while you are enjoying the ST. I'll suggest http://www.candlelightcottages.com.au to all those who may want a bit of non automotive action....... |

One thing always bugged me about the recent fiesta models is that the side mirrors are mounted way too low. Should have put them where those useless little windows are

Picked up some vinyl sheet off a sign-writer, stuck it on and cut it out. Ford don't sell a black version - already tried that. eBay versions are too small, more like the size of the front ones.
Seems kind of stupid - the XR6 Turbos got a black badge on the orange/red ones...

Bike rack. Had the requirement to carry up to two push bikes and there was no way they were going on the roof...

Here's my baby, fresh from the dealer with tints and O.Z racing Leggendra's. Installed the Mountune short shift kit yesterday and would recommend to anyone whos thinking about it, apart from being an absolute pita to install it transforms the gear shifts into things of beauty. |

I paid $1700 for them, wanted them for ages and the ST was the perfect excuse.
