Hey guys,
Noticed there's no a huge amount of Australian activity on here so I thought I'd kick it off a bit!
What sort of vehicle are you trading in or selling to get into your new Fiesta ST and what was also on your list to look at? What clinched the deal for you? For me I'm coming out a 2012 Hyundai Veloster Turbo which unfortunately was sloppy and thirsty in comparison to the Fiesta ST.
I was initially looking at the new Focus ST but with the reviews on the Fiesta, the much cheaper entry point with heaps of gear and with the invoked memory in the back of my mind about my old quick shoebox (1995 Suzuki Swift GTi), everything just stacked up and put in an order immediately after I tried it - actually just out of curiosity as I didn't think there'd be such a huge difference between two 1.6L Turbo hatches. But the Fiesta just sings, has more outright punch, handles incredibly with super-direct steering and is an amazing looking vehicle. No regrets! Just now need to wait out the factory order as I need to sort out a few little bits here and there before I get it. Gives me time to flick the Veloster and straighten everything out financially.
Excited!!
