2019 Ford Fiesta ST MK8 *REVIEW*

Finally a Fiesta ST on the channel! Thought i'd start it off with the all new MK8 with the Performance Pack. Proper engaging car, hopefully drive some more fast Fords soon.

the Fiesta ST is Porsche of FWD cars

[@mavicwarrior]

Thr reviews dont lie for this car

[@henryhealy]

I've been looking forward to this one! What I love about your reviews is that you actually properly drive the car. You don't get that with other reviews

[@TRHamza]

Thanks man! Really appreciate it 🙌🏼

[@Gr1mR34p3r85]

You should get more views, your reviews are top class.

[@TRHamza]

Thank you, hopefully with more frequent uploads it should go up.

[@djibby1157]

Been waiting for this one

[@TRHamza]

🙌🏼

[@sparkplug964]

Love the Fiesta ST, one of Fords best cars, and with a Modified turbo bolt on makes for quit a weapon.

[@ibo1137]

Great reviews on these 2 cars. I'm gonna go with the Fiesta ST as well.

[@nathanjp96]

New to your channel- great video of a great car! All the best 👍

[@akhikahn8463]

What do you think of the previous st

[@lifeisastruggle5517]

I had a Renault Clio RS Trophy man that car consumed a lot of fuel. what about the fuel consumption with the Fiesta ST ?

[@haidersohail1649]

Great video brother. Got an Audi TT mk1 to get today as my 2nd car. Cannot wait. It’s the closest thing I can get to your S3 lol at 18. Love your’s and Ricky’s videos always.

[@TRHamza]

Thank you brother. Enjoy! I’m sure you’ll have plenty of fun in the TT.

[@elliott8045]

I’m looking and this Ford ST but not sure whether to get the ST 2 or ST 3 ? Do you think the difference is noticeable and worth that extra money ?

[@JeeSingh21]

Hi mate pretty informative and enjoyabke video. I know this isn't a 'hot' car but can u review the new civic 1.5l sport hatch?

[@alexascs2679]

Thank You Hamzs! Keep up The Good Work and Keep it up and Keep em' Coming Please AF! I'm Proud of Myself now I've already Subbed to You! And You Are Worth Being Supped to Supporting You AF! And I Bid You a Good Night!🌃🏴x

[@alexascs2679]

B479 ST! Lit AF! Simply Lit! Just Subbed To You Pal! Good Afternoon To You Too!🏴x👍

[@Carl-yu6uw]

What's TR stand for pal?

[@Zed_Zone]

Not sure about those wheels, maybe look better in the flesh! Super vid as always

[@yaz258]

Would be good if you add a quick segment on cruising mpg @70 and also fast driving mpg too for these cars you test drive since that is quite an important factor for a lot of people.

[@dylanthedyslexicvillain4294]

Brilliant review thanks for making it

[@TRHamza]

Dylan Bethlehem No problem, glad you liked it!

[@phantom2k10]

hamza if you get the opportunity to review the new swift sport please do.also more videos on the m2

[@tahmedurrahman666]

Definitely agree there. Performance Pack is a must.

[@Matt7R]

1:49 Why would the size of the car dictate whether you need LED headlamps or a panoramic sunroof? I don't think it's the size that dictates that, more the personal preference of the buyer. Plus these options cost a hell of a lot less than if you want to get the same options on an Audi / BMW / Merc alternative.

[@xRM7]

The back looks a lot better in person compared to videos and pictures i think

[@Giorgos.Tsiaras1]

I can confirm this. I just picked up mine last friday st2 . actually i was shocked when i saw it in person loving it.

[@TRHamza]

Yeah I didn’t notice it to be an issue in person either, it’s strange in photos as it does look a bit like a van,

[@leewhite6249]

The back seats are right at the back 😂😂

[@bristolbullterrier.1434]

Just needs a cpe engine mount on it for even better handling, and a revo stage 1 to take it to 250 bhp.

[@gamingmadforever6363]

Great review. Must admit I wish my polo sounded like this. I think thier is something thats lacking in the polo when your cruising and slowly put your foot down. Ram it down it flys.maybe have the st one day But I doo love my polo gti🙂

[@AK-47760]

One of the best hot hatches!!!

[@user-gi4uz5rc6u]

i would like you to test the 370z nismo!

[@cbrady1301]

Looks lovely

[@dehv]

ford make more exciting cars, you nailed it with the urgency and sense of speed. hands down better than the polo equiv.

[@billkhan6333]

Great video👍🏼 whens the m5 video coming?

[@TRHamza]

Thank you 👊🏼 It will be up during the week

[@JimboJammy]

@@TRHamza can't wait for that one!

[@zaronatic]

Sprry for the brightness "shows the sun"

[@datguy9985]

please try find a standard vxr corsa the new shape and compare it to the polo and fiesta

[@TRHamza]

I will try

[@jaaftmr]

are you recording with a Iphone? or a Pixel? Thank you

[@jaaftmr]

oh, maybe neither xD

[@stephenhitchen1434]

Great review, good to see the comparison between polo and fiesta in a proper review.

[@TRHamza]

Glad you liked it!

[@theguyyep2908]

Sounds like its got pops and bangs map on it

[@johnsaunders8021]

Had a ST focus nothing but trouble in the ford garage more than on the road......

[@Chema7657]

I love the Fiesta ST

[@thomasgammelby9309]

Nice vid, no doubt the ST is the more engaging car in stock form, but went with the Polo, was betting on better potential with the 2.0L. It seems to have paid off. On a JB4 piggyback it makes 265hp and 372Nm. No other mods. 😎 so not even stage 1. When you look at the Dyno graph you can see the Fiesta ST has more top end and that the Polo GTI dies after 5K rpm losing 40hp between 5-6K rpm... So makes sense the Fiesta ST seems more eager. Am pretty jealous of that diff though 😅...

[@harrisonsloan6036]

The pops and bangs are mad!! Wish the polo was that loud. But to me I like how refined the polo gti for daily driving so I would end up getting that. Great video btw. I like the ideology of your channel, relatively cheap performance cars, nothing ridiculous.

[@TRHamza]

Yeah the Polo is great for relaxing everyday driving with the DSG etc. And thank you! Just like focusing on stuff thats more realistic.

[@arnoldcorns8879]

Polo is boring as hell, as usual with those bloody VW

[@ashcosmo3854]

VW are so boring, even the Golf R is dull albeit good. VW like to say "refined" but in the real world it just means boring if you're a petrol head.

[@arnoldcorns8879]

@@ashcosmo3854 yeah, i mean the quality is pretty fair, or even more than that, but you ain't got that big grin as you've got with a Ford RS/ST

[@makavelithedon]

@@ashcosmo3854 VW are understated which some like myself happen to like, if you sit in a VW and then sit in a Ford the difference in quality is there to see, not sure about the mk8 Fiesta but when I sat in the mk7 it was cheapest crapest interior I've ever seen full of cheap squeaky plastics, I'd take understated quality build over cheap exciting plastic any day, each to their own I guess

[@julianra8059]

Test the legendary renault megane RS 275 PLEASEEE

[@TRHamza]

J R I’d love to if one becomes available!

[@blackflagpirate3444]

Yeah like the fiesta ST 🍻 I was touch and ago about a 3 cylinder but some how the Fiesta ST pulls it off 😳

[@TRHamza]

Need for Speed Passion Agreed it does pull it off well 👌🏼

[@Rebelz173]

Got a mk7 st but do want this one. Didn’t like it at first but it’s grown on me

[@TRHamza]

3cyl does sound very cool, not sure on its tuning capabilities though if you're into that sort of thing

[@mattsamuels3607]

Love the look of this new fiesta ST looks better than the Polo GTI, saying that the Polo GTI has a better interior. Fiesta has an LSD though. But the Polo has DSG 🏆

[@Elias_g1]

I would choose the Fiesta :D

[@jonathantatton6907]

please compare this to a jcw

[@quentinrs2507]

🔥

[@TJ45indamix]

That parking tho lol

[@mark-1rc502]

It could have a heavy flywheel

[@aclmotorsport4420]

You do know that this is actually a German car, right?

[@jonathantatton6907]

Is it better than a 2018 jcw ?

[@hamsterclamper]

I did want this car, but now I've heard that annoying exhaust pop, I don't think it's for me. So, thanks for the useful video.

[@totaledbifftv9083]

Only does that in Sport mode in normal just nice exhaust note no pops and bangs

[@JonnyyNI]

Paul B I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking this

[@dp9724]

These are slowly growing on me, wonder if they will have the same issue with poor gearbox. Only time will tell...

[@Chappers.Gaming]

I would bet they do if not something wrong with the engine, probably the 2 cylinder drop issue or something, but who now's fingers crossed nothing major

[@brucekendall52]

Thks.

[@Neil2022]

My missus was so impressed with the new ST she traded her 3 year old m235i in for one. Picks it up on Friday. Great video mate. When you coming to test my M4 CP😄

[@TRHamza]

It is a great car, love the size/how nimble it is! And anytime mate just drop me an email 🙂

[@Neil2022]

Sam MK6 agree but you don’t look at the mantle piece when you’re poking the fire.

[@tomjardine100]

Sam MK6 Newer Fords don’t rust anymore

[@TeacherToolkitDemo]

An M235i? Obviously taking into account running costs and insurance because in terms of performance no costs included the M235i is a complete different animal.

[@Neil2022]

TeacherToolkitDemo yes of course the repayments are significantly cheaper. Neither of us found the car very exciting Since day one TBH.

[@ethansoar3436]

Mate you’ve gotta sort that wind noise out it ruins most of your videos

[@adamperry1403]

Yo hamz , u should go to earlswood bypass in soullihull bout 20 min from brum i got 120 in a mk 5 gti there

[@bls007]

Can drive my Mk7 ST if you want? 300bhp Peron Stage 3 😉 Mk8 looks and sounds good. Keeping mine for now but really need to get an LSD fitted.

[@TRHamza]

Sounds like fun mate 🙂 Drop me an email, in description 👍🏼

[@AwaisK9]

Hello

[@bls007]

@@TRHamza sweet mate will do. It's def fun bit crazy compared to when it was standard tho! Mk8 100 percent handles better. Decat so loud pops n bangs too. I'll send you details mate. Love your vids best car KZbinr in my opinion.

[@yaz258]

apparently the mk7 is more driver focused but the mk8 makes up for it by being more of an all rounder. Would be good to see a direct comparison

[@bls007]

@@yaz258 Yeah looking at all the reviews coming out the MK8 is the better all round package which I expected. Sat in one was hoping to test drive but Ford were taking too long. The driving position I definitely prefer over my MK7. Think I've got a little too much power going through the front wheels now dying to get an LSD. Too much wheel spin but will be awesome if my car can come on the channel 😊

[@Andrew-el8xi]

The shape before was miles better the rear looks like a boring everyday Nissan loved the old side high up rear lights it just looks very boring .nice interior and front

[@mohammedatif9459]

How do i contact you mate?

[@TRHamza]

Email or Instagram, both are in the description 👍🏼

[@mohammedatif9459]

@@TRHamza iv sent you a dm can you get back to me please

[@naeemmuktar335]

You should really try an Hyundai i30N, absolute weapon of a car 👌

[@azamchaudhri]

Yeah the only thing. Would you buy one when hyundai themselves have reported the suspension settings will be revised for 2019 on the i30N, following customer feedback and the Nth Degree days held at Millbrook. The revised suspension will make it more usable.

[@tubejorrit]

I'm waiting for some 2019 reviews before I buy one indeed. There is also a DSG option coming in 2019.

[@TeacherToolkitDemo]

Its a quick car its not an absolute weapon in terms of hot hatches.

[@tubejorrit]

Its not a hyperhatch suchs as a Golf R or AMG45 but a competitor for the Megana RS and the golf GTI. Hyundai has the most balanced package with power, braking, price and it is the most fun and best sounding one in the segment.

[@mohammedbostan9467]

good hot hatch more usable on the road than the German powerhouses.

[@fatwalletboy2]

Another top video 👍 Polo 200ps from 2.0 litres Fiesta 200ps with 0.5 litres less. Polo has to be the more tuneable. Polo weight 1355kg Fiesta weight 1262kg So with nearly 100kg advantage not surprised the ford feels more urgent. Dont like the info screen in fiesta as it looks stuck onto the daah as an afterthought.....id be scared of snapping it off by accident. Windscreens are getting further away from drivers! Also the back of the fiesta doesnt look as squatted down as the mk7 did. Check the wheel to arch gap.....

[@thomasgammelby9309]

fatwalletboy2 The dyno numbers so fare from the polo on a JB4 suggestiv about 231 WHP (about 265 at crank) and 370-420 Nm. The higher torque with better cooling... :)

[@manjbains1977]

Hope the owner upgrades the car security system as Ford's own is sh1t! Great video tho.

[@jawadxxx1836]

Tr hamza do a A35 amg

I'd love to but this car isn't even out yet 😂

[@mikel900]

Sort of

[@kwagga2884]

You really say (sort of) a lot 😂

[@JimboJammy]

It's a tough choice, I think maybe I'd go with the Polo but for me I like both a lot so I could flip a coin and be happy either way.

[@TRHamza]

Yeah both have their own strengths tbh

[@samtheman407]

Try the 208 gti Peugeot people give it shit for being French but it’s a good drive man
