Ive got a facelift mk6 zs, so obviously i cant comment on the engine side of things. Build quality wise they arent fantastic, but the interior is nicely laid out. Handling should be fine as standard, but as mentioned by others, rear axle spacers are definately worth doing.
Interesting people mention power steering known to be troublesome, mines been in to Ford a couple of times now for being so noisy, and resonating through the steering wheel sometimes. Both times ive been told nothings wrong. Would be interesting to know if its a fault just with the ST's,or mk6's in general?

i think the ST150's are VERY over rated, good once they have a few breathing mods and suspension, but i'd rather buy a clio 172/182 far better package out the tin!

I do agree I think the 172's are faster for the money but the Fiesta is alot more reliable and won't need fixing like a Renault. My mates 172 is always broken, fixes one thing and another goes wrong, this time it's the coilpack
