My PCP ended up £100 less than the original ask for a ST-Line X and on a Vignale with everything I wanted. No idea how they work things out, but as long as it's to my advantage...As said, it's a no brainer.

And that's a tentative delivery date to dealer of the 16th of December.

I won't miss the flappy paddles and I'll sort my own sill scuff plates - mats and mud flaps are already here and waiting.

Suppose I'd best return the Fiesta ST back to stock :D

Very much looking forward to getting it

Picked it up today. Superb thing. Right choice, right spec, right colour and the right drive train.

Got all the sync updated and wireless android auto working. S23 Ultra could not be a better fit in the charging tray. Dash cam fitted and USB lead routed.

Want to use it fully from day one. No sense delaying fitting stuff. Will sort mudguards out at the weekend and give it a few coats of sealant to protect the paint till i can give it a proper clean in the spring.

That's that done. Need to order a puck for the jack or just get a new jack with one. I don't care for the flimsy jacking points.

Puma ST line Sports suspension - good feedback. Sharp handling. Reasonable compliance. Doesn't pogo you. Bumps stay in the suspension.

Fiesta ST suspension - sharp handling but lousy compliance. Pogo bouncy choppy ride. You feel bumps right through to your bones.

I was never sure if it was over sprung, over damped or both but it was the one thing I never got on with.

The Puma feels supple but still pleasantly firm - as a compromise, it's a far better balance for 90% of the driving I'll do.

Just sorted a full mat set for megabox, boot and seats plus a set of contoured fitted mud flaps.
Are the contoured mud flap made by Ford.
