Description
ST180 ST-2 in spirit blue.
Please note: this is a converted mk7 Fiesta. The body shell is 2008 Edge 1.25l and was converted fully to an ST around 2021. Everything is ST, from the suspension and running gear, to full interior from a 2014 car (verified by FORScan). Very cheap to insure, currently paying under 300 fully comprehensive.
I bought this from a dealer 2 and a half years with zero history and just a few photographs of the conversion process.
Thankful to report that it was a gamble that paid off, the car has been absolutely flawless in my ownership.
Services in my ownership (with invoices):
91,500 oil service
99,051 oil service and OEM Ford front pads
104,398 oil service, sparks and Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres all round
108,535 oil service, coolant, gearbox oil change and Brembo rear pads
113,039 oil service
It is a totally standard car save for a set of Eibach pro-kit -20mm lowering springs (Ford sold these as aftermarket springs from factory) and a bee sting radio arial.
2 MOTs with me and its gone through with clear sheet both times, will do the same at the next one. Happy to report no corrosion issues whatsoever.
Brake discs have plenty of life left as do the tyres, clutch is perfect, gearbox is very slick, no suspension play or knocks.
Heated recaros in great shape, there is a small amount of wear on the drivers bolster as seen in the photos but for 100k its pretty minimal.
Usual ST-2 bits including DAB radio and part leather. Comes with the Style Pack which includes factory tinted windows and darker alloy wheels.
Car has been very well cared for in my ownership, always allowed to warm up and cool down, best tyres, OEM parts only, air-con regassed for buyer. Turbo has absolutely zero play. Still returns over 40mpg on a run.
Front heated windscreen works intermittently, believed to be a relay.
Fantastic little hot hatch, unspoilt by mods, in the best colour with no issues whatsoever. Will be sad to see it go.
