Drove a 2015 Fiesta ST earlier today at the dealership and all I can say is wow..:love:

This car is so much fun to drive I was grinning from ear to ear. I have a Golf GTI and I don't think the Fiesta is quicker than the GTI but it is much more fun to drive :D

It's a 2015 with 2500km on the clock for R265 000, is this a good deal? What is the maintenance cost on these cars?

I've been looking for the past month and these cars are so rare to find. Ideally I was looking to spend around R240k for a low mileage 2014 model but can't find any.

Should I hold out more for a better a deal?

Also...dat Recaros :love:
 
Just traded my august 2013 Fiesta ST MK7 for an A45 , they gave me 180K that was one fun car , it goes round corners like it is on rails .
I think the car is at Mercedes unhlanga now , 25000 on the clock .

Originally bought the Fiesta ST for 252K out the box , the suspension on the ST is bloody hard and the Recaros are tight for big guys .
missing the ST it is so small and maneuverable .
 
Luckily I'm fairly slim so no worries there.

What was the maintenance costs like?

No problems at all there was a service plan for 3 years , tires and pads lasted 21K because i am a hooligan .
Lovely car all round and it comes fully loaded , mirror dimmer , no filler cap , key-less driving ETC .
 
Yes brand new , night pack ,19" wheels ,sunroof , paint , red painted brembos thats it .
Not had an auto car for 30 years , so this is new to me , the auto box seems to get in a muddle some times . have not tried the sport mode yet but i will as soon as 1500 Km arrives .
The suspension on this car is nowhere near as hard as the ST ,some people have said the A45 suspension is hard , they obviously have not driven a FiST .

Suspension on the FiST is the only negative, other than that is a brilliant little hatch. Loving mine to bits.
