It's even worse than that, I was looking for some info on pricing last week and there's no mention of it at all on the Ford website!

 

It's hard to justify one at £27k when you can pick up a lightly used orange one for £22k, but if there was some dealer support/contribution to bring the figures closer together, I think I'd go for the blue one.

Congrats. What do you currently have, a mk7?

 

Thought about this myself, but figures don't make scene for me

It's on their current price list but little else other than that...
Strange the orange one had the full write up on there??

Autocar review went up today

Great review as expected, the Yaris GR might impact sales but I can’t see these hanging about for long.

[Richyharrison04]

That Yaris GR is something else...people are absolutely raving about it and I know it will be amazing to drive but...."it's a Yaris" - but then again that's the view on the ST from certain quarters, and just like Yaris owners won't care, we don't care - nor should they.

It just brings the question to the table again even more which is why did we never/will we never see a Fiesta RS?

Yes I know the real technicalities and "reasons" will crop up that it's to keep Ford inline with emissions, the move to electric, their financial woes, etc etc, but before we do move to that era it would have be a fantastic car in theory.

Updated suspension which we can buy anyway, Azure paint and a button moving to the steering wheel just doesn't cut it for me.

That said, I did enquire at a dealer about one and put my name down some weeks back, but glad with my decision upon reflection not to pay another 100 quid a month and put £2k in for the above "luxuries".

Great review.
Yes, it is too much for a Fiesta but so is the list price of an ST these days.
