righttttt........ i have a S1600 134, and am getting the ST when its out which should be for september plate change, however, for the meantime i have been offered a metal...just to keep my trade in price up, i dont like the metal over mine at all, and so am wondering about getting a zetec S and chucking it down to mountune for a MR155 upgrade, so would like to know if anyone has experience with the MR155? what is it like? is it good? bad? ugly? not worth the money? opinions please!!

thanks guys

I don't think adding the kit will boost your trade in price up. Would be a waste of money if your getting a new car, but I don't think anything has been confirmed for the new ST till next year but thats what ford told me anyway

cant see the point buying the MR155 kit for re-sale. some dealers panic when you mention mountune purely beacuse they dont know how to price it - i know have had the exact issue with my Focus -

keep the money in your account and buy the MP kit for the ST when its out.

Give us a flash when/if you see me the plate will give it away it's me

Dal

will do mate, there is only my white S1600 in chelmsford, a few blue ones, but whites better

Also...just curious...if you are doing a MR155 kit on ur metal...why didnt you get a white ZS and MR155 that? as it would be cheaper? or did you get it purely for the leather and other looks? i have spoken to mountune about mine and the cost for the MR155 for both ZS and 134ps engines are the same :/

ive just turned down another mental metal offer from ford...the front grille is standard and not the sport like on the ZS and for some odd reason, i dont like it! might be wrong in the flesh, still rly nice lookin cars tho

cheers mate

I don't really know the difference of the bumpers - spec wise was better then a zs, limited to a 1000, and was cheap LOL

My best mate works at mountune so always get special price


Dal

exactly the reason i went from ZS to S1600 to S1600 lol, i just chop and change too much to warrant mountune upgrades however much i want them! can i ask then how much you got it for? just to compare it to my lil deal? if you dnt wanna say its cool

and lucky mate well defo wanna see it, wont race u tho lol
