My Son had one of those, his car before last, at the same time the missus had the 180PS ST, I have to say, the little 1.0T EcoBoost was more fun in normal traffic, my thought on the flip side is, only having 1 litre, three cylinders, and a turbo charger, I think they could be a problem with a few miles on the clock.

I think his was the sporty Red Edition.

Re: New car

He swopped for the ST Fiesta, he now has the Red Edition S-Line Focus, same thing on a larger car, 1.5ltr Turbo, 180ps, all very good when new, very efficient, would'nt be the same with 80k on the clock though.

That's a long time to wait. I'm sure it will be worth it though.

Yes my last one took the same, but I guess this is a totally new version so maybe that's why it is going to be so long, but as the salesman said its changing all the time so it might be quicker
