Wonder why this was not snapped up ?? no bids and yet looked okay to me. Focus st3 persuade me do not buy one - pros / cons please ??!!

Probably because it's Orange with Gay White strips all over it.

Also probably because at over £1.30 a litre, not many people are looking to but a thirsty car right now. If he was selling a Focus TDI, it'd go straight away.

Orange is in your face enough without the added white stripes and white wheels!!!
If it were black or blue it would probably sell.

Okay cheers just caught my eye and thought it sounding one off the nicer ones for sale, I personally like the orange in the st, white stripes also but white wheel would no doubt be changed back to original.

a lot off car for the money thou, any idea what sort off power it will be running / insurance / road tax ?? what is the differnce bewteen the st2 / st3 etc ?? are they really that bad fuel wise ??

can be mapped to 300bhp for £400 and get about 25 mpg

Hi
I sold a ST-3 to get my STi
Overall a very good car, comfortable, easy to drive day to day.
I remapped it, + a turbo back exhaust & was approx 290bhp
Mine was red, i debadged it, and sprayed all the grey grills/fog surrounds gloss black and it looked great. But that one is orange with white stripes and wheels Each to their own !!
I drove sensibly with the family and gave it some beans without them and averaged 26mpg
Servicing was about £200 a go.
Great forum if your interested :

I would say that one is a bit overpriced unless you want to play a premium for what he has done to it, I was looking at them around 6 months ago but bought a Diesel Leon instead, couldn't face the fuel costs for round trip of 52 miles per day

I have a friend selling a silver one with lower mileage for about 2 grand cheaper than that.

The ST-3 is going to my next car hopefully. Not much of an upgrade from my ST220 but I quite fancy 270-290bhp.

No offence, but that orange one looks $hit.

I have to agree I'm afraid.

Blue or White FTW. Reliability would be my big concern. Mate of mine had plenty of electrical issues with his ST2. Lovely sound from the Volvo 5 pot tho.

Remove the white stripes, paint the wheels black and I'd happily drive it.

Yeah, once you've forked out for a new intercooler, exhaust system and cold air induction kit.
Even then I think it would be unlikely that you could get 300bhp on the standard turbo and injectors.

Yea, a remap is good for 260/270bhp tops. I've had an ST and wouldnt have another.
My VXR Nurburgring and current GB270 are better cars IMO.

This I would be fine with, the one in the OP - no....
