Loads of Fordies getting STs on the privilege scheme here!
|
I ordered an ST3, mid Jan and i still havent got a build date, looks like it will be June before i see my car.
Just dont believe how badly ford have messed this one up, the amount of cancelled orders and dealers not taking orders ive heard of is unreal, Ford have shot themselves in the foot. Mark p.s. Privilege is available (on ST2 and ST3) and you get around 20% off depending on spec and options. |
Errm, whats wayne rooney buying a 20k hot hatch for?
A friend of a friend ordered an ST3 a while ago, the last he heard was that people who were promised their cars in feb/mar are now looking at jun/jul for delivery! |
im sorry but this waiting lark is bolx, do they not realise people will buy sommit else?
if i ordered, i'd be bored of the damn thing before it even arrived! |
Edit they have sold all there new stock, but have a 4700 mile demo for sale @ £17495
|

...or a diesel Fabia vRS? |

When he first passed his test he was pictured in a SportKa. I assumed he would only be driving something like this if he was paid to - not having a go at SportKa's, just not what most millionaire 17 year old lads would buy :) |

Think someone's getting their wires crossed here, Ford employees don't get discount on the Focus ST, but do get discount on ST2 & ST3. Apparently the reason being what with our discount it does'nt work out economical for us to go any lower than ST2. That clears that up :D . |
along the same lines, when i went to try and buy one of these, both salesmen said i cant even order a ST-1 coz they aint building any at the moment...

My wife bought me a copy of "Test Drive" magazine yesterday with the hot hatch shootout on the cover.
Towards the back (may be inside back cover) one of their guys rings round a few dealers asking for discount and delivery dates on a ST2. I cant remember it exactly but one says 2 weeks (or something like that) and good discounts, the other says 3 months small discount !! :cuckoo: The best one was broadspeed.co.uk in the end BTW. Worth a read for £1.50 If your in the market for an ST (which also won the shootout) |
i did read that mag, thats what persuaded me to go look...
i'd like to know when the report was written, and how long ago they rang around for the deals? |
Photos for Magazine articles are taken around 3 months in advance I think, so any time after that for the article itself.
Dagenham motors uxbridge was the ford dealer who quoted "next week" for an ST3 in the article. |
