Lee Lockwood I think Jamie is fairly good at his videos I do like them .... but I think Lee videos are much better, and not as boring as Jamie’s” personal preference though 😊
I sold an EP3 Type R for one of these and it was the biggest regret of my motoring life, they look good, have a nice interior and handle well. But they are underpowered, extremely expensive/difficult to get more power out of and the engine sounds awful when thrashed. The insurance costs and fuel economy are DIRE for the performance you get, I couldn’t wait to get rid of mine.
Fair comment they're low on power compared to the rest of their class at the time but how are they expensive? Tax is cheaper than an EP3, fuel is fine if you drive it normally (I can easily get 30mpg+ just daily and close to 40 on a longer motorway run), parts are cheap, the cars are cheap to buy in the first place and insurance for me (23 with 5yrs NCB) is the same as an EP3. Yes they're poor to tune and yes they're not the quickest, but a few suspension mods will have you keeping up with EP3s on twisty roads with ease, despite the power difference.
TheH3RB1E I think I worded that poorly, I meant that they’re ridiculously expensive to tune, even compared to other NAs, 250bhp in an EP3 for example isn’t actually that expensive compared to tuning an ST
@@johnmerrick6450 Ah yeah in which case I completely agree mate, like Jamie was saying in the video its such a shame you can't get power out of them very easily. However, there are a couple of companies developing K20 swaps for these cars and you can bet me and a lot of other ST150 owners are very excited for somebody to develop a drive-in-drive-out package for that!
TheH3RB1E in my opinion they should’ve come with at least 185bhp from the factory, the final straw with mine was when my mates Proton Satria GTi (132bhp) was dead level with my ST150 in a straight line race and another mates Suzuki Ignis sport kept up very well, handling is A+ though and I loved the interior.
I Had a 2008 fiesta st with the mr200 kit and militek exhaust etc , problem is costs me so much money to get the extra 50bhp , unless get a turbo bolt on 5k Mark, the fiesta is a solid car and looks great fords have always been under powered compared to renaults and Vauxhall’s, but have better build quality than both .. got dirty diesel 120d now (motorway miles!...) has 184hp 280lb , good video :)
I used to want one of these a few years ago but insurance was daft. They do need grands spent for not alot of gains imo. Nice looking car though, buying one with the engine mods already on is the best route 100%
Nice! Another ST on TH-cam, this is the end goal for my ST 😎 absolutely love it mate looks/sounds so good 😍 would love to get in touch with you and ask a few questions about it! I recently started this channel about my ST150, 6 videos deep so far haha, Im not sure if this is really aloud but it would mean the world if anybody reading this could check out my channel 😅 Jamie, if you don't want me to have this comment on your video, that's absolutely fine mate just let me know and I'll delete it 👍🏻 Thanks for sharing this car Jamie keep up the solid work! I need some new air fresheners soon so will be in touch haha 😉😉😉
If you thinking of getting one and your reading this, the fuel you put in there for the performance you get is not worth it, save up a few more years and buy a focus st or vxr, they look nice but that’s it
A grand and a bit for a Pumasport intake, exhaust and tune kit and it’ll be pushing close to 200hp and a sub 7 sec 0-60. That’s not too bad a price honestly
These cars really shine on tight, curvy mountain roads. If you replace the stock suspension with a lowered one (2cm is enough) it just sticks to the road. It goes where you turn the wheel no matter how tight the turn is.
You should get the GGR cold air induction filter... Mega money back in the day but really makes the difference. I had one back in 07 as my first car and felt like a don... Dream science map, GGR full sports cat system, and GGR cold air induction.
Good looking car in standard form with just a set of lowering springs. I've got a 07 plate from new in silver with just 21,000 miles on the clock, up for sale soon
Is the Mazda 6 or Mazda 3 SP25 with the L5-VE 2.5 not available in the UK? They are as cheap as chook nuts in Oz since Mazda sells so well here. No Fusions/Mondeo's with the 2.5 though, so the Mazda swap needs a Ford Timing Cover, and Ford Crank Pulley to match the belt and timing wheel, and if you are retaining the old Dipstick style, the 2.0 sump and cam cover might need to swap. But otherwise it's close to a direct swap - if you keep in mind the 14mm difference in block deck height between the 1.8/2.0 and the 2.3/2.5. The ST150 even has the intake CAM VCT so can drive the same on the L5-VE.
That young kid who owed the car didn't really say much, he just said, 'Yeah' after every question - he looked shit scared and nervous ? .... Bless his little cotton socks !!
@@tomsmith2540 I have to disagree but hey that's what makes the world people having different views. I find the mk6 a bit top heavy and not a nice cockpit the mk5 chassis handles far superior its a great wee car to drive . The puma on the same chassis was car of the year in 97

LOL they are slow as shit bruv, i even beat one of these in an old 206 GTI and they are not exactly fast, though i did have the 180bhp version, anyway my advice to youngsters here would be get a proper car like an Evo or Impreza , dont buy cheap as you will end up buying twice
@@Keyboardbeatz Yeah old used to own a Saxo VTS rapid cars they are bruv, but for me I'd buy an old Civic type R , love those cars fast reliable and still look great today
New Fiesta,s are Shitheap,s. i had a Fiesta ST with the standard 2 litre engine , fucking piece of junk, headgaskets are prone to blowing, do you guys know what i did? i broke down at Tesco in Amersham after the head exploded, i walked away and gave the keys ot the security guard and said here bruv take that piece of junk and do something with it, i lost 2 grand on buying it, so wasnt even worth scrapping it, now driving a fecking Clio with a 2litre engine , even thats more reliable LOL
Cosworth inlet is one of the worst things to do on these cars. Cams are a great additon but the Cosworth inlet kills the low and mid range torque, the noise the inlet produces is a massive placebo to how fast the car's actually going.
@@TheeEttles Yes they are really great for boost but it irks me when I see people fit them to N/A engines because apart from willy waving and saying you made 200bhp onthe rollers, they are worse to drive. When are you planning on supercharging yours? I had my mk6 ST for over 5yrs and loved every minute of it but engine troubles meant I stripped it and moved on, still miss it :(
the best modification you can do is port and polish the throttle body and fitting the 1.25 gearbox into the st150 bellhousing. not only will you get better acceleration but your mpg will improve by nearly 10
Love how he's complaing about the 28-30mpg fuel consumption I'd be laughing with that. Got a mk1 mazda mps and the combined average with mainly town driving is 17.8mpg😂😂
I’ve gotta say I think the Zetec S is better for the young driver market. It looks exactly the same as an st just 50 less hp (stock) and better on fuel, tax, insurance stuff like that. I’m a little biased because that’s what i have 😂 By all means if you can afford an ST, go for it!
TDCi even better IMO, mapped it's 120bhp and even when ragged returns amazing MPG plus only £30 year to tax. But then again, I'm biased because I own one lol.
Just to be picky, they’re not ‘exactly’ the same. ST has side skirts, a rear diffuser with exhaust cut out & 17” wheels, as you probably already know 🤷♂️
@@AdxmTS Yes I know, they also have colour-coded bump strips etc as well as different interior door handles, aluminium pedals and a different gear knob and steering wheel. But they are very similar, especially after a few mods etc.
Best car review/blog in best part of a year+ great keep this format up don't go back to your old boring format/content might just come back to the channel after all
If that's it on your profile picture it looks nice 👍. Really love them in white and don't know if I'd like to swap my black zetec s 1.6 diesel to either a white ST or zetec s. If I got a white a white one id paint the front plastics gloss black.
These should of had more than 150bhp from factory, the Williams Clio had 147bhp and that was over 10 years older when the st150 came out. These should of had the st170 vvt engine with a 6 speed box.
Guys what performance increase would I see from a stock st150? Say 0-100mph? I have an st500 and I don’t think I’ll ever sell it. Could anyone tell me performance increases for say £1000, £2000, £3000, £4000, £5000? I would be prepared to put a stupid amount of money into it just for the lols.
Tried emailing you but it doesn’t seem to exist. Got a 302bhp 2016 John Cooper Works Mini for you to review here if you’re interested. Could pm with more details + pics?
Ya'll can complain what you like, but there will never be a fiesta with a 2.0 n/a anymore... This is one of the last true oldschool hot hatches... Have mine for 1.5 years now and it makes me smile everyday! It's a tonic blue one with mountune mp165 kit, and it now feels like the car it should have been! 15bhp more and it's a second quicker to 100kmh, and people do turn heads when you slightly Rev in second gear and it pops in a small street! A mk2 focus st maybe more grown up, but the fezz is now just 0.2 sec behind a stock one to 100, so can't be bothered as they use more fuel (can't beat the sound though) and are more expensive in road tax as well. My cousin just got a clio 172 (stock) and we have yet to find out who is quicker, but it feels like it's not a noticeable difference!
@@JoshuaRGraves well.... It's not slow, but their owners are allways to confident in it being faster! But I bet the diff between my mp165 or his clio172 is so small it is barely noticeable! Stock they are a bit faster indeed, but they should have come standard with around 170 horses, the fiesta ST!
Theo Sanders Clios weigh less and have a bit more bhp standard so yeah they can be a bit quicker but I’ve seen Mk6 ST’s beat one in a straight line. Bhp isn’t everything though. I know of ST’s running 190 lb-ft torque without even touching 200bhp and they annoy Type R’s.
@@JoshuaRGraves yeah indeed, every one can drive fast in a straight line, but when you can annoy cars like a 540d with double the horses in the tight corners with a fiesta, you know it's a winner!
Why would anyone review one of them scrappers? And why would a 49 year old man be asking about one? They’re shit cars that kids used to drive. Now kids don’t even like them.
These are basically uninsurable for new drivers. No one wants to insure you if you haven't been driving atleast a year and if they do it's 10k. Even after you been driving a year they aint great on insurance.
@@breno9860 what company? I've currently got one, 0ncb and 21 and got quoted 10k and couldn't find anyone else that would insure me.. This was on compare the market
@@nickpinder2549 Phone companies up mate comparison sites are bollocks. Bought a new Mk8 ST after seeing I could insure it for cheap, once the car was built I checked on compare the market and the insurance quotes doubled in price haha. Phoned up my current insurer and it's actually 20 quid a month cheaper to insure. So I literally paid nothing. I'm 19 with 1 1/2 yr no claims if that means anything to you!
@@KyTaundry Yeah definitely think calling up is the way to go, I just done a quote on aviva and got quoted £4,800 which is alot less than my last quote but still really expensive.
Nick Pinder go skippy, i used go compare, just need to keep checking prices, having a named driver brought mine down about 400 and if u put the start date a few days from the day u look it drops a bit, Sunday night was usually cheaper not sure why also depends a lot on where u live, job and where it’s kept etc
I have an 06 st150 with a kn induction kit. Had it for 9 months looking to part ex possibly tomorrow it has 80k miles It is terrible on fuel.i reset the mpg readout and drove around town for the week tops of 30mph and got a solid 19 mpg lol. On a12 doing 60 I can get around 40mpg I think at 70mph it was around 36. It very small inside,no good stash trays for keeping some coins etc also one shit cup holder. Really needs a 6th gear I traded a ep2 with buddy club exhaust cat back and 17in team dynamics motorsport wheels for the st and to this day regret it.
Ps can u find some st220 🤔 rly want to hear ur opinion about them. Cant decide what to do...keep my focus mk1 ...get bmw e38. Save money more 3 years to get st220.
The thing I miss about my younger days.. is not getting 1 of these.. I've had 50+ cars now am in a Saab and am 25.. lol.. Kids But It's 265bhp Saab twin turbo diesel 😂 2008 9-3 aero with enough torque to pull a train lol
Hey guys I have a question: my boyfriend of 3 years has a Ford Fiesta ST MK6 2008 I think. I really want to buy him some tuning stuff as a present. We always talk about cars and he is also a car mechanic, but I don’t really know what I could buy for him to tune his car 😂 Have some of you a few suggestions ? 🙈

I sold an EP3 Type R for one of these and it was the biggest regret of my motoring life, they look good, have a nice interior and handle well. But they are underpowered, extremely expensive/difficult to get more power out of and the engine sounds awful when thrashed.

Just to be picky, they’re not ‘exactly’ the same. ST has side skirts, a rear diffuser with exhaust cut out & 17” wheels, as you probably already know 🤷♂️
@@AdxmTS Yes I know, they also have colour-coded bump strips etc as well as different interior door handles, aluminium pedals and a different gear knob and steering wheel. But they are very similar, especially after a few mods etc.
Jonathan Bennigsen didn’t know about the handles or the gear knob that’s pretty cool, but you also missed out the seats lol
I sold my MK6 two days ago :(
BRAD LYON 😔😔😔
ST hard to mod'fy.... Get a 1.25 piece of piss. Just as fast 28 p/gall
Thanks. I've got one of these and want more power. Time to start saving
Best car review/blog in best part of a year+ great keep this format up don't go back to your old boring format/content might just come back to the channel after all
Split the headlight and paint black or get devil eyes and this car would look so sick
Ash Visuals that’s in the works
I want to see some mk4 golfs you should find a pd150 or 130 to review, some rolling coal 😂
Best comment I've read on TH-cam yet! 😂😂😂
I need the deets of place you got that spoiler from mate
Love This 🤙
Love my st150... when it works, brilliant first car
If that's it on your profile picture it looks nice 👍. Really love them in white and don't know if I'd like to swap my black zetec s 1.6 diesel to either a white ST or zetec s. If I got a white a white one id paint the front plastics gloss black.
If he ever sells this, let me know I’ll buy it. I’m not joking btw
He’s never selling it as he’s still got it and doing a build on it
My leon fr stock would beat that js... fezz gay boys
Don't let me get my imaginary sierra cosworth out and rs200 out shall I breath yb breath pinto old school ford man
These should of had more than 150bhp from factory, the Williams Clio had 147bhp and that was over 10 years older when the st150 came out. These should of had the st170 vvt engine with a 6 speed box.
can someone please let me know where u can get a spoiler like that for my mk6
I have a fiesta zetec mk6. Do I get the st150, or focus st225 or Mondeo st or Mini Cooper a r53/56?
I’ve just bought a 2006 complete original yesterday in red. Wasn’t even a mark on the car or the interior looked brand new and was a stock show car
I miss my old mk6 tempted to get Another after seeing this
Good to see another mk6 owner trying to push the power on a 2.0 HE,better cooling and cams next for me.
dave_b_ st150 have fun dude! Few more things for this then I’ll be going all out power
wish it was still 45 brick to fill my fezza
omg literally perfect timing. Looking to buy one soon haha
bought 1 hahah
You still have it?
@@byjames43 nope
@@SkippoSkippo what did you replace it with
@@thomas9434 ST180 :) Best thing ever
My god I do love a mk6 😍
Guys what performance increase would I see from a stock st150? Say 0-100mph? I have an st500 and I don’t think I’ll ever sell it. Could anyone tell me performance increases for say £1000, £2000, £3000, £4000, £5000? I would be prepared to put a stupid amount of money into it just for the lols.
Put this post in one of the mk6 fiesta Facebook groups mate
Tried emailing you but it doesn’t seem to exist. Got a 302bhp 2016 John Cooper Works Mini for you to review here if you’re interested. Could pm with more details + pics?
Ya'll can complain what you like, but there will never be a fiesta with a 2.0 n/a anymore... This is one of the last true oldschool hot hatches... Have mine for 1.5 years now and it makes me smile everyday! It's a tonic blue one with mountune mp165 kit, and it now feels like the car it should have been! 15bhp more and it's a second quicker to 100kmh, and people do turn heads when you slightly Rev in second gear and it pops in a small street! A mk2 focus st maybe more grown up, but the fezz is now just 0.2 sec behind a stock one to 100, so can't be bothered as they use more fuel (can't beat the sound though) and are more expensive in road tax as well. My cousin just got a clio 172 (stock) and we have yet to find out who is quicker, but it feels like it's not a noticeable difference!
Theo Sanders Clio 172/182 aren’t as quick as you might think.
@@JoshuaRGraves well.... It's not slow, but their owners are allways to confident in it being faster! But I bet the diff between my mp165 or his clio172 is so small it is barely noticeable! Stock they are a bit faster indeed, but they should have come standard with around 170 horses, the fiesta ST!
Theo Sanders Clios weigh less and have a bit more bhp standard so yeah they can be a bit quicker but I’ve seen Mk6 ST’s beat one in a straight line.
Bhp isn’t everything though. I know of ST’s running 190 lb-ft torque without even touching 200bhp and they annoy Type R’s.
@@JoshuaRGraves yeah indeed, every one can drive fast in a straight line, but when you can annoy cars like a 540d with double the horses in the tight corners with a fiesta, you know it's a winner!
Theo Sanders “My car is faster in s straight line” I hear that a lot. That’s why all roads and tracks have corners so it gives all cars a chance. Lol
My zetec s only gets 18-24mpg
The standard redline cutout is 7200, was this one forged? ;)
What about review of vauxhall corsa c?....
😄🤣🤣
Why would anyone review one of them scrappers? And why would a 49 year old man be asking about one? They’re shit cars that kids used to drive. Now kids don’t even like them.
@@cwuzii what about a nova?
Where i can buy this wooden intake?
If you want a faster car just buy a faster car
Nc87 or take the time and have a slow car as a project and make it fast 🤣
Where did you get that spoiler from
These are basically uninsurable for new drivers. No one wants to insure you if you haven't been driving atleast a year and if they do it's 10k. Even after you been driving a year they aint great on insurance.
Nick Pinder I’ve got one as a first car 20 0ncb 2k without box
@@breno9860 what company? I've currently got one, 0ncb and 21 and got quoted 10k and couldn't find anyone else that would insure me.. This was on compare the market
@@nickpinder2549 Phone companies up mate comparison sites are bollocks. Bought a new Mk8 ST after seeing I could insure it for cheap, once the car was built I checked on compare the market and the insurance quotes doubled in price haha. Phoned up my current insurer and it's actually 20 quid a month cheaper to insure. So I literally paid nothing. I'm 19 with 1 1/2 yr no claims if that means anything to you!
@@KyTaundry Yeah definitely think calling up is the way to go, I just done a quote on aviva and got quoted £4,800 which is alot less than my last quote but still really expensive.
Nick Pinder go skippy, i used go compare, just need to keep checking prices, having a named driver brought mine down about 400 and if u put the start date a few days from the day u look it drops a bit, Sunday night was usually cheaper not sure why also depends a lot on where u live, job and where it’s kept etc
What spoiler is it! I love IT
I have an 06 st150 with a kn induction kit.
Had it for 9 months looking to part ex possibly tomorrow it has 80k miles
It is terrible on fuel.i reset the mpg readout and drove around town for the week tops of 30mph and got a solid 19 mpg lol.
On a12 doing 60 I can get around 40mpg I think at 70mph it was around 36.
It very small inside,no good stash trays for keeping some coins etc also one shit cup holder.
Really needs a 6th gear
I traded a ep2 with buddy club exhaust cat back and 17in team dynamics motorsport wheels for the st and to this day regret it.
Where is the spoiler from anyone ????
Ps can u find some st220 🤔 rly want to hear ur opinion about them. Cant decide what to do...keep my focus mk1 ...get bmw e38. Save money more 3 years to get st220.
Sounds mental!
Jack T Hayes thanks dude
Sure you've reviewed like 2 or 3 of these already 🤔
Hi where did you get the spoiler fam looks good 👍🏼
Someone's got to have a k10 or 11 micra they look sick done up ill have to get a 1l swap it for 1.3 I'm not a driver so is it up to a 1.6 or something
23 held my licence for 6 months.
to insure one of these will cost £1300 a year without a black box, same as the zetec s funny enough..
This guy can properly see the moon up close with those glasses
Naaaaaaaaaaaaaa its alright
How’d you get the dash to light up blue? I can’t find anywhere online a guide or a lot for the ST150
Sacred was done by a guy I know £45
The thing I miss about my younger days.. is not getting 1 of these..
I've had 50+ cars now am in a Saab and am 25.. lol..
Kids
But
It's 265bhp Saab twin turbo diesel 😂 2008 9-3 aero with enough torque to pull a train lol
What rear spoiler is it???? Anybody know???
Miss my mk6.5 so much wish I'd kept it superb car. I have a mk8 st now but God i loved that car.
ooof that makes me moist
Take a shot every time he says "naturally aspirated".
Did the owner state where he got the spoiler from?
Zain K dm me on insta @ettlesa
@@TheeEttles hey man, don't know if I'll get it but I'll add you. I have a mk6.5 zetec s but don't know if I can keep it for more than a year
The reason these are cheaper than a zetec s is because theyre insurable, and by the time you can get them, you can drive much better ones.
I’m looking to get a 1.2 liter one of these for me first car in Ireland but pretty sure the insurance is gonna be fucking mental
Go for a 1.6 zetec s mate
The C2 VTS was just as quick from factory back in the early 00s.
The c2 was 0.4 seconds slower to 60, fiesta was more reliable
@@dhd7327 0.4 seconds is alot 😂😂
Hey guys I have a question: my boyfriend of 3 years has a Ford Fiesta ST MK6 2008 I think. I really want to buy him some tuning stuff as a present. We always talk about cars and he is also a car mechanic, but I don’t really know what I could buy for him to tune his car 😂 Have some of you a few suggestions ? 🙈
Exhaust
Intake
60mm throttle body
Sports cat or decat
Lowering springs or coilovers
Exterior bulbs
Interior bulbs
Alloys
The list could go on but it’s xmas this Friday
@@boostedchris6120 Hey thank you for all your suggestions! Btw: it was planned as a birthday present, not Christmas gift :) So I still have time :))
@@serak6302 Honestly no problem at all pal, fair enough then longs you’ll be happy with it that’s the main thing tbh and yeah don’t rush into it just take you’re time! Have a great day
I'm getting one in a year or 2 still need to pass my test coz of ronaaaa
