Hello everybody. My name is Joonas and I live in Finland. Sorry for my bad english
I ordered the new Fiesta Sport Silver Edition, frozen white, 1.6 Duratec Ti-VCT (134 hp), I get it probably in December. I can not wait
In England it is sold, I guess the name Zetec S. I think...
Here is a great information available and very knowledgeable people. It is great that such a forum has been started. nice
I put my pictures when I get a car.
Let's start with this...

Welcome
I think since the one you ordered is the 134bhp edition, it would most likely be the S1600, which is essentially just a bit quicker version of the Zetec S. Will yours come with the over the top blue stripes?

no stripes, they are optional in here and I do not like them.

Good choice on not choosing them then!
Not a big fan of stickers on cars to be honest.

loving the car mate, really nice, over here (UK) its sold as the fiesta 'metal' - the zetec S and S1600 have different front grilles and fog light surrounds. The wheels are different though...i assume you have winter tyres on because of the weather?
by the way....white is HORRIBLE to keep clean!

Yes, these are the winter wheels. Summer wheels are these

But I think, will be less than some other wheels for summer. Then we see it...
Any other changes are coming, the update parts of the brakes, suspension, exhaust system and air filter . The only obstacle is perhaps Ford's warranty I think?
Does anyone here on these matters more? What may change, and what does not.
Should investigate the matter with the Finnish importer of Ford's.

I was told by a ford body shop manager that if the parts are ford approved they won't affect the warranty (eg, springs, eibach pro sport will be ok, spax coilovers will invalidate the warranty) basically ford trying to stop after market bits being used, it doesn't apply to air filters though which i thought was a bit odd :0/
