[@assortedpov]

Got mine mid-August. I'm a biker and not really excited by cars but sometimes wanna be able to take my pedal bike places further than I can be bothered to cycle, or go walking in the countryside without having to be burdened by motorcycle gear and worrying whether the bike will still be where I left it when I get back. Or go on holiday elsewhere in the UK with clothes/shoes for unpredictable British weather and a pedal bike and perhaps inflatable kayak. Chose the ST because I didn't want to be bored numb and sure enough, now I genuinely enjoy driving. It'll never touch riding a bike, but it's undeniably fun.

[@NobbyOnCars]

Better grip in the wet at least anyway!

[@thecommentator6694]

Great review, great car! Got myself a 2 year old one on Saturday, and in just 6 days I've done over 1000 miles... Suffice to say, I'm loving every second of it! It's my first 'proper' car and it's a completely new driving experience. Truly amazing how much you get for the money, especially when it's second hand. Mine has five doors, Ford Performance Blue paintwork, B&O sound system, full LED headlights (sunroof too!) and everything else, all for under £20k! Yes an Audi or Golf is nice, but you'll never beat this car on value :)

[@donachryan1]

Great review Mark. Car looks like a hoot to drive. I bought a MK7 ST new in 2016 and kept it for nearly 3 years. Best fun I ever had in a car. In the end the 3 door body shape just wasn't practical so I traded it for a diesel Golf (albeit a GTD) as I was getting married and needed something a bit more "grown up" and practical. I kept that for just a year and then traded up for a Golf R which I have and will have for a long time. I had inquired with my local dealer about the MK8 ST in 2018 a few times and they just didn't seem interested, pity as I could have bought and lived with the 5 door shape much more easily. I think anyone that buys one won't be disappointed.

[@NobbyOnCars]

You’re not the first to say there wasn’t much interest in selling them. Odd. Can’t beat an R though.

[@gryfandjane]

Excellent review! I’ve owned my 2015 Fiesta ST since new, here in the USA where Ford has dropped the Fiesta, Focus, Fusion (Mondeo), etc. in favor of trucks and SUVs. And yes, the Mustang is still around. So I’m envious of you getting to drive the new generation, because we’ll never see them here, alas. I’ll be keeping mine for the long haul.

[@NobbyOnCars]

If it's any consolation, I'm driving a Ranger Raptor this week with a 2.0 engine - you wouldn't get something that small in the US but in Ireland, our crazy taxes and car prices force it.

Id really love to have one of these in the US. The CEO of Ford just tweeted that he wants the Puma ST to make it stateside but I hope the Fiesta ST will return. I think they'd be successful in bringing it over if they just gave us the ST models. That's what Volkswagen is doing. They're only giving us the GTI and the Golf R.

If the comments on this vid from the US are anything to go by, there's huge interest in it.

If we all contact them, maybe they'll realize it's a profitable business decision to bring the new Fiesta ST 6 spd manual transmission to the US/North American market.

Bought a 68 plate ST 2 last week. It's a stunning little car. I fully agree on terms of pure fun factor it's a gem👍 I know some would ask why I went ST 2 instead of ST 3? I know I've missed out on a few gadgets but the ST 2 was roughly £1200-£1500 cheaper than at most Ford dealerships I visited. I bought the ST 2 and I've had the Revo stage one software installed (almost makes it into a new car for just over £550 with SPS switch). I am booked in to get a Miltek valved exhaust fitted in 9 days. So I am basically getting the exhaust and brilliant software upgrade for that extra £1500 I'd have spent on an ST3. I know i it effects warranty and not everyone's taste. The software upgrade is stunning and I've seen/heard nothing but good things about the Miltek exhaust system (although not sure neighbours will like it😂).

[@MrShadowhearth]

I was wondering when you going to do this one. It was one of my options to upgrade to from Seat Ibiza cupra 171. Unfortunately my local Ford dealer was not interested in selling me one. A salesman did not even knew there is actual ST fiesta, not just ST-line... They had issue with finding performance pack too, as I asked for it when I tried to spec it. They could not find that option and could not tell me if it comes as standard on irish cars. Led lights is an extra 1k eu too. So its not really 29k car, because with delivery charges, led lights, performance packs ( it was 1.5k eu before in configurator) it becomes 33k ish car. Unfortunately the alternative in this segment is only Polo gti, which is 35k paddy spec and with manual Aircon from 99 caddy van...

[@NobbyOnCars]

Frustrating to hear that, nothing worse when you want to give someone your money. What a car! Fair points on the prices, suppose it's hard not to spec those bits. A two year old Golf R would probably be close in price but for new, this is just great.

[@MrShadowhearth]

@@NobbyOnCars That was my worst dealer experience so far. They never bothered to come back to me with price, trade in value and performance pack details. And that was way before covid lockdown. For hot hatch and a modern car, the performance pack and led lights should be standard. ( *cough* its standard on 24k ibiza cupra ). And I agree with you that those options are a must. Unfortunately when you spec those and 1k eu paint, affordable hot hatch becomes very expensive. And again, I agree, right now, its the best new option you can get, then again, no competition in this segment helps it. No more clio RS, Ibiza cupra, 208 gti, Fabia vrs etc. 34k eu can buy you a demo i30N. Fords pcp apr is very high too, so won't help it. Now, the car it self is very very cool, I agree, I love compact hot hatches, unfortunately we are hit with Irish performance car tax here, which makes it hard to justify.

The Oil pump on all but the earliest version of the 1.5 3 cylinder is driven by a belt in oil, which is a disaster waiting to happen as the car gets older. Ford went to the effort of fitting a proper chain for the timing gear unlike on the 1.0 Ecoboost but then they let themselves down with that silly bit of engineering. The timing chain has to be removed to replace it...

Mate said he seen a few cranks on these give way, & blow out the back of the block? Said the next one he gets he will show me what a mess it makes.

Yaris GR every time for me !!!!

[@NobbyOnCars]

Absolutely but in Ireland, this car is €29,000 and a Yaris is €49,000

[@jordanmorgan1006]

@fordsouthafrica where is it???

[@NobbyOnCars]

Where is what?

[@jordanmorgan1006]

Where is the Ford Fiesta ST because in South Africa we just have the normal Fiesta So that’s why I asked Ford South Africa 🇿🇦 where the Ford Fiesta ST is we need something to give the competition a run for their money 🎉

[@NobbyOnCars]

@@jordanmorgan1006 Ireland. Available in quite a few regions though!

[@jordanmorgan1006]

@fordsouthafrica where is the Ford Fiesta ST????

[@underballbutter]

I need it

[@Andrew-ku8ot]

Rather get 2016 golf R for about same money

[@DualHat]

I have got 60mpg in this car, always get at least 56mpg. 47mpg as quoted is a inaccurate claim.

[@NobbyOnCars]

It's not an inaccurate claim. It is what this car delivered according to my style of driving. If you buy a 200bhp car and you constantly strive for 60mpg (whilst driving down a very big hill), it is completely wasted on you.

[@DualHat]

@@NobbyOnCars My 60mpg run was done on the M25 in the UK. I did 47miles and the road is mostly flat. I did this run to see what I could achieve as a one off. I usually average at 32mpg. I certainly didn't buy this car for mpg. Great review anyway. Just pointing out how great this car is in that area, which most reviews miss out on. If you really try in this car, it can return better mpg than what ford claim. Which as far as I know that is rare.

[@NobbyOnCars]

DualHat that sounds a lot more like it 👍🏻

[@matthewsmith2787]

If you are gentle with the throttle on any car, you probably can achieve good MPG regardless of engine

[@flush_entity]

sadly... this is not coming to the u.s.

[@danielleroux6490]

Let's all do our part - call or write Ford US Customer Relationship Center and tell them what their American customers want. If we all contact them, maybe they'll realize it's a profitable business decision to bring the new Fiesta ST 6 spd manual transmission to the US/North American market. Wouldn't hurt to ask for the Focus ST and/or the Puma ST 6 speed manual as well! Ford Motor Company Customer Relationship Center P.O. Box 6248 Dearborn, MI 48126 Ford U.S. Phone: [phone]
