Default Re: TDCI Focus

I had a spin in a new Focus ST Line with the 1.5L I3T engine, it's not a bad car but it's not that much chop with that engine, though I imagine with some mods it'll liven up.

I think it was 8sp auto.

If you want a manual a Fiesta ST is a good buy on the second hand market, we've got a WZ Fiesta ST and it's given us 115,000km of trouble free motoring, except it's done an engine mount.

Does 6L/100km with the old man driving (6.45L/100km with me), it has the Mountune package bringing it up to 159KW/320NM so it moves along well being 200kg lighter than my Focus.

Only averages 500ml-1L more per 100km than my TDCI Focus but is much faster without the added expense of diesel maintenance.
