As an owner of one of these FiST, I'm with Jeremy Clarkson:
“I spend most of my life whizzing hither and thither in exotica made from platinum and rhodium and fitted with engines that roar and bellow and spit fire. And all I want on the way home is a Ford Fiesta ST.”
And its true. You always smile while driving it.
The last 4 years are sheer driving pleasure until today. It's a drivers car for real petrolheads.
Really love it.😎👍
This reminds me of when I went on one of those supercar “track days” I drove a Lamborghini and Aston Martin and genuinely enjoyed driving my Puma more home! [The old one based on the Fiesta Zetec S of the time]
Im trying to get one as my second car. This is genuinely one of the best reviews. It deserves all the views
I have a st200 as my 2nd car after some dickhead decided to total my 1st car..
Can it be insured if you have 1 year no claims?
@@jazzehh1879easily if it’s stock. For context Im only just getting my license looking at quotes for one, 21 years old, added my dad as a second driver. About 3.3k a year which for what you’re getting really isn’t that bad especially considering I live in one of the worst areas in Leeds (Halton Moor)
@@jazzehh1879I'm paying 700pln in PL for insurance. But thats only for it's my fault on road. If someone (like neighbour) will smash my window I have to cover it with my wallet. Or if i will crash into somebody like red light or stop runners. But thats seems pretty cheap for a car that can easly pass 200kph on *any* road in eu.
Been daily driving my 2018 Fiesta ST for a a few months now. More comfortable than my 02 focus and more stiff than my 09 335i. The acceleration in 2nd and 3rd are plenty but the ability to get 30mpg on 93 octane is awesome. I couldn’t recommend this car more !
It's almost same engine You probably had in Focus (1.6 16v Zetec-SE). I was thinking abput swapping JTJA into my 01 Focus 😂, but rust in right rocker made my decision to scrap it (repair would be over 100% of car worth at that time) and get another 1.6 star, which was FiST. No regrets after literally 1 year (01.08) of ownership. Even with almost 180k there was no problems with it. CheckEngine wasn't on dash for over 60k, so It's either good one or just an average 😂. Hopefully 1.6 Zete... EcoBoost will hold for another 10 years (Car is 2014, as almost everything bolted to it).
@@mmllmmll22 lmao my focus also had rust beyond repair and specifically the rocker panels were dust 😂😂😂mine had the 2.0L 16v Ztech engine with the 5 speed, I loved that old bastard 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@mmllmmll22 yeah this comment was a year ago and currently it’s got an S280 turbo kit, upgraded intake, dp, exhaust, intercooler, all the intercooler and intake piping, radiator, bov, clutch disk and pressure plate on E30 🙌🏻
Just bought one 65000 miles st3 and everything your saying is so right . Absolutely love this little car . Great video 👍
what did you give for it? ive got 16k cash to spend but im 21 and cant insure 335i's or big mercs an dont like 140s lol
@@cupra2Jock. paid 10k for it
Fun fact: Fiesta ST only have bad reputation on UK. On most of European countries or US they are not very common and have regularly good taste mods and partially sensible owner. It's, for sure, not a first car like it happens on UK, mostly because of a higher cost, and i believe that helps a lot.
In the netherlands we have the golf gti stereotypes
You are right, they are quite rare on my country. I've only seen two until now, a red one and a black one(mine fortunately!)
@@ricardini9560 I’m in the UK and there’s 2 just on my street, both basically identical to the one in the video
Got my fieSTa like year ago, got an ic and symposer delete kit. Thats all. Not even a remap. 180hp on ST2 (just a ST with all interior options like Sony radio, recaro seats with heating, navi, etc. Mine is missing only parking sensors - but i don't need em cause i have rear cam, while getting into Reverse. With remap I'm aiming ar 230hp/320nM@crank. Hopefully factory clutch will hold it fine (almost 180k km on clock, no record of replacing it in car history).
I absolutely love my FiST!! Perfect car to compliment my ND1 Miata soft top! No matter where I'm driving, I'm smilling :)
I currently own a mk7 1.4 petrol and some of the things mentioned are relatable, been thinking about getting an ST as an upgrade and this review has pretty much just tempted me twice as much as I already was
I had a mk7 2012 1.4 petrol zetec and now I have an St3, the 1.4 was awesome but nothing on the speed and momentum you can carry through corners with the st
Intercooler should be one of the 1st mods after a tune.
I bought the most ostentatious looking Fiesta, Molten Orange with the factory dual racing stripes. Somehow it goes past being obnoxious and back to being lovable.
Im waiting pretty much watching every review on this car as I'm looking to buy one as a fun, reliable car to throw around a bit. I use to own a 320hp mk2 Focus ST a year ago and it was fast in a straight line but wasnt all that great in a corner, seems the Fiesta is the best for that. Can't wait to go see the one I have lined up later today.
Just gone from a mk2 focus st to one of these you definitely won't be disappointed. I do miss that 5pot roar but the fieasta makes up for it in so many different ways
@@scottr3905 I picked the grown up car instead lol, mk3.5 Focus ST3/ST250
@@thecreedy too bad rlly, why didn't you go fiesta
@@daansiderius4283 the Fiesta is to small for me, given I've had 2 Focus' previously I couldn't size down.
Absolutely Love & Rate These Ford Fiesta ST's Great Little Cars my uncle used to own one bout 2/3yrs Ago And I gotta Say That Car Looked & Drove immaculate but from a Passenger it Felt Alot Quicker Than 230bhp but I'd Definitely Love to Own One to Have as a Daily Driver 100% I couldn't Rate These Cara Highly Enough if your Looking In Getting One I'd Go For it 😀❤️💯😊
Great Video Tom What a Cracking Review You Done Mate Keep Up The Wicked Content 👍
Recently purchased a 64 plate ST3 Mountune, one owner low mileage (23k) and it is huge fun just all I could ask for from a second, fun car and, so far, better than 5he Audi S1 and S3’s that I have owned. Have booked to try it on a hill climb circuit in July, can’t wait!
Only Audi i'd prefer ower FieSTa would be A1 with 2.0 TFSi and AWD. Which is rarer that Focus Mk1 RS (4501 units).
Owned mine for a couple of months now and I love it
Brilliant review. Loved watching this.
I have a stage 3 time on mine.....awesome little car
Brilliant cars in the handling department although I’ve never driven one, however I did own a 1.7 puma in the late 90’s and the chassis was sublime 👌
Really good review mate I currently have a basics fiesta but can’t wait to get my hands on a st
i used to hava a ztec s and i got an ST just for over 4 months now man its great to drive so much fun
@@mikegaming3826 I got my ST about a month ago so much fun
@@Rc-xd8ji man i tougt the 1.0 drove good until i did my first drive with the st!😍
@@mikegaming3826 the pick up in 3rd gear is insane for a hatchback
@@Rc-xd8ji i love seccond gear 2.5k rpm till the rev limiter😍
One of the best cars ive owned for sure. Wish i hadnt sold it
Most fun I had in a car!
I recently bought a 2014 Fiesta ST, it has the Recaro seats, sunroof and navigation. It needs some attention but I am looking forward to driving it.
Sunroof?
@@wackojacko123 he’s probably in the US where it was an option.
Nice man, i got myself a 2014 fiesta st aswell. Awesome car got it stage 2 now from pumaspeed and this is so much fun
@@wackojacko123 sunroof exists as I almost bought one with it. (Southern California.)
Certain years they came with them but I have a 2017, no sunroof! Don't want one.
You should try a newer shape one, the 2018 onwards model. I guess the driving experience is similar, but the interior is much more up to date.
Really, what changed in 2018?
The 1.6 4 Cylinder is safe to add boost too. I would avoid adding more boost to the New 1.5L 3 Cylinder Ecoboost though for obvious reasons,
What are the reasons?
Love mine !! Ford got it so right with this one !! perhaps better than even 'they' intended ,well done Ford SVT division :-)
That Vietnam joke at the start had me🤣
Fiesta ST is a superb car not much betters it on uk roads
Great review. Looking to potentially get an st after selling my mk5 gti.
you won't regret it, the fiesta st is still one of my fav cars even after everything i've driven.
@@ParagonCarsLondon
Keep looking at them. The plan was a Meg 250 but could do with saving a few quid. Maybe a 208gti aswell...
Fun car period
Brilliant review 👍
I miss mine so much haha, faster than my focus ST xD
Brilliant drivers car
I might be wrong but I think that car may be standard on REVO's website it says a standard car should do 30 to 70 in 6.02 seconds which is nearly bang on to what you achieved and a stage 1 should do it on 5.09 seconds. Not sure though. Another thing to mention is at @11:17 you did a pull, if you were full throttle then it should be a lot quicker than that and even slightly break traction.
Is there a lot of variation between these cars then?
Nice review, can you do mk8 st, thanks.
hopefully, been wanting to review one for a while.
@@ParagonCarsLondon all right , thanks.
Might want to put some fuel
In
Thank you for adding the twisties section. I find most reviews to be same as yours but without twisties. I dont get how you can review THIS car and not do a good amout of cornering and twisties. It misses the point
haven't watched the whole vid yet but just wanted to say your intro music is way louder than your voice, you should raise one or lower the other, imo. No hate or anything just wanted to give feedback
How is the handling compared to something like the gt86 or gr86?
What's a stage 1? What does it include exactly 🤔
engine map. Adds horsepower and torque to your engine.
Sport mode doesn't mean full traction off on this car. If you hold the ESC button it will turn the traction off completely and then it's a totally different car 😈
I didn't no that . Thanks for the information ill holding the down as soon as I get in next time lol
@@scottr3905 yeah or just go onto menu, vehicle settings, ESC and turn off
Still slow
not round corners, left many a red faced audi and golf gti in the dust.😅
@@LMAO2510but quicker than your Nissan micra
2:15 The TT must be re-mapped surely.
I literally just sold mine and a cupra Leon 🤣
I've been looking at buying one for a weekend B road toy but im always put off by the theft of them. I don't have a garage so don't think it would be outside my house long.
Theft? Really. I mean, thieves drive stick
someone will nick it... trust me
Is there no way to improve security?
@@genomedia44 Nope, my friend had a disclok on his and they still took the car
you sound like chris harris XD
I have one of these with a miltek system , thinking of getting revo stage 1. What are peoples thoughts on the strain on the little 1.6?😅
well worth it. turns it into a little tiger, engine can handel 300 bhp so no problem.
So, I should get this instead of a 2015 Polo 6c?
yes
But why the heck it shows all the time around 18-19 mpg with slowly driving? WTF
Comparing to corsa vxr is they much difference?
Haven't had the chance to drive a corsa VXR yet but i'd like to know.
@@ParagonCarsLondon looking at buying one as they don't seem much different from the fiesta sts for half the price only problem I worry about is the piston 4 problem
@@k9g5 If you haven’t bought it yet, save up for the ST mate wont be disappointed lot more car
Can i buy a fiesta St with 140.000km?
You could. Make sure it’s been well maintained and be sure to have a good amount of money for any repairs. I’d try and get a slightly lower mileage one if you can.
I have one with 200k and it’s ran great. Only split one coolant hose in my ownership. Stay up to date on the service items like timing belt and it’s great
@@ethanreidy4496this is good to hear. I test drove an st200 with 20k km on it, was as good as new. Then a st180 standard with 108k km, it was a bit vibey at idle. Is that normal?
@@genomedia44 people often replace the engine mounts as they are the same as the base model fiesta with almost triple the torque. Probably has stiffer mounts
Fuel light on 😂
valet it and put fuel in before a video wtf
Basically a one and done. Buy the fiesta ST and quit the game
Suspiciously young gf 😂
fiesta st overrated
Nah. Value for money is insane. Ford nailed that part
Why are you commenting if you haven't even driven one?
How so?
4 cylinder engines are are much better on fuel than these 3 cylinder engines.
@@peterdukess9115 Also more reliable 👀
