Inside, the Focus ST Edition’s standard part-leather Recaro sports seats are edged in Ford Performance blue stitching, with the same effect used on the leather ST steering wheel, gear lever gaiter, centre console knee pads and floor mats. The engine start button is also finished with sporty red lettering to complement the ST badges. assist features are supplemental to and do not replace the driver’s attention, judgement and need to control the vehicle

Ford Performance-developed 1.0-litre mild hybrid powertrain blends energised, seamless shifting and 170 PS driving experience with versatile everyday usability March 1999 – Ford promotes the Mondeo ST250 Eco concept at the Geneva show. Closely resembling the ST200, the ST250 (Sports Touring 250bhp) includes a supercharged 3.0-litre Duratec V6 with LPG capability, Prodrive clutchless transmission and 8x18in multi-spoke alloy wheels. Many ST200 owners have by now added upgraded front brakes, which are a bonus when buying. Mk1 Mondeo V6 callipers, ST170 discs with Mk3 callipers, or Focus ST225 callipers with redrilled discs (from five- to four-stud) are all tried-and-tested solutions.

Our new Fiesta ST Edition squeezes even more excitement out of the best-handling compact hot-hatch on the road,” said Stefan Muenzinger, Ford Performance manager for Europe. “The Edition model puts drivers firmly in control with the ability to manually adjust the feel of their car and fine-tune the handling to suit their personal preference.” The Ford Performance team called on all of its experience developing the original Puma ST to deliver ST signature fun-to-drive without losing the practicality of our compact SUV, and our new Powershift derivative is even more versatile. We’re using 48-volt mild hybrid technology not just to improve efficiency but also to enhance peak power and torque,” said Stefan Muenzinger, Ford Performance manager, Europe. “The multi-award-winning 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine is combined with a paddle-shift-operable, seven-speed, dual-clutch Ford Powershift transmission – fusing an energised driving experience and everyday usability.”

Metallic = same application process as above but the paint now has powdered metal mixed into it, which reflects more light to give the car a shinier appearance. Metallic finishes usually cost more than solid paints. Combined with unique software tuning for the turbocharged, direct injected, three-cylinder petrol engine, the result is an almost 10 per cent increase in peak power compared with the 155 PS 1.0-litre EcoBoost Hybrid engine. Delivering up to 170PS at 5,750 rpm and up to 248 Nm of torque at 3,000 rpm, the Puma ST Powershift produces exactly twice the power-per-litre of a 2002 Focus ST170. Fiesta STs including the new Edition model offer a better-connected and more intuitive driving experience than ever. Arguably the most luxurious interior in the Fiesta range, the Vignale gains synthetic leather called Sensico throughout, which has a hexagonal pattern for the facings (hence the ‘Hexagon’ bit of this trim’s name) and a smoother outer for the bolsters which is called Cuir. Jean Diamond/View The problem is ST200s were fitted with bespoke suspension components, including unique front suspension arms; like normal Mk2 Mondeos, they regularly destroy front wishbone bushes, resulting in wandering at speed and clonking over bumps; unlike normal Mondeos, the replacement parts are rare and expensive. The ball joints can be replaced separately, but owners tend to get the main subframe bushes from America by buying Ford Contour components.An estimate of your annual mileage during the finance agreement. This estimate is used to calculate the likely future value of the vehicle at the end of the agreement; it is important to be realistic because Excess Mileage charges may be payable if you exceed your expected mileage. Apply 2-4 coats of mid coat depending on the desire color required. Leave 10-15 minutes between coats. The only Fiesta interior shared by 2 models (the Titanium X and the Active X), Flagstone sees the seat facings take on a neat pattern of squares, while the bolsters are finished in Ebony Sensico ‘faux’ leather, complete with contrasting Metal Grey stitching. Hexagon Sensico/Cuir The Ford Edge ST gained its Ford Performance blue paint option for the 2019 model year. Currently, the Ford Explorer ST can be optioned with a color called Atlas Blue, but it’s just a bit different. That same hue will also be available on the 2022 Edge ST, so at least fans of the color blue will still have one option available.

Moving up to Titanium, the upholstery colour stays dark but the seat pattern (Vibrant) switches to rows of small triangles, with a different design of bolsters called Eton to go with it. Flagstone/SensicoPuma ST 1.5-litre EcoBoost homologated CO 2 emissions 149-155 g/km WLTP, homologated fuel efficiency 6.6-6.8 l/100 km WLTP. There are 11 main paint options for the Fiesta, comprising 2 solid paints and 9 metallic paints. Above the standard colour offered on almost all models in the range, Ford bundles these finishes into 2 overarching categories called Premium and Exclusive. Besides the exterior hues, we also outline the various interior upholsteries that go with these body colours. Paint Types

Here is everything you need to know about the color Ford Performance Blue, including which models are using it and where you can get it. Paint Code A Puma ST Powershift chassis shared with the award-winning Puma ST sharpens responses using a rear suspension twist-beam rated at 2,000 Nm/deg torsional stiffness – an increase of more than 50 per cent compared to the standard Puma – with a 28 mm anti-roll bar integrated into the U‑section and a 24 mm front anti-roll bar.Fuel pump failure is problematic, causing the car not to start; listen for buzzing underneath. OE replacements are costly, but non-genuine pumps are available to save cash. The Powershift automatic also enables Stop & Go functionality for the available Adaptive Cruise Control, 4 which can bring the vehicle to a complete halt in stop-start traffic and automatically pull away if the stopping duration is less than three seconds, or resume after three seconds with the touch of a button or the accelerator. The transmission also enables a Remote Start 5 function via the FordPass app. 6 Acceleration from 0-62 mph takes 5.7 seconds, with standing start performance supported by flat-shift capability that holds the throttle open when the clutch is disengaged during upshifts through the six-speed manual gearbox. The Focus ST Edition can reach a top speed of 155 mph. Look around the fuel filler flap and examine all the doors, paying attention to their frames and the weather strips alongside the windows; when rusty they tend to scratch the glass, so budget for a set of new seals. Some Mk2s have rotted quite severely around the windscreen rubbers too. Ford’s 1.5-litre EcoBoost petrol engine uses turbocharging, high-pressure fuel injection, and Twin-independent Variable Cam Timing to deliver 200PS at 6,000rpm, and 290Nm of torque from 1,600rpm to 4,000rpm, for 0-62mph acceleration in 6.5 seconds and a top speed of 143mph.
