Fiesta ST will be the first of Ford’s ‘Sports Technologies’ models to carry a new ST badge, without the use of numbers. The generic branding, inspired by Ford’s classic RS 'racing stripes' badge, will be adopted by all new ST models introduced from now on, using a central red stripe. Future Ford RS models will continue to bear the companion badge retaining blue as its distinguishing stripe, and the current Focus ST170 and Mondeo ST220 models will retain their existing nomenclature. The spirited new Fiesta ST features a responsive, 150bhp, 2.0-litre Duratec ST engine and performance chassis tuning designed to give small-car drivers something to smile about once more. Ford is offering Fiesta ST customers in the UK a unique opportunity to buy performance upgrades for their cars through a choice of two special dealer-fit options. The Mountune Performance Stage 1 package will retail at £1,435 (plus fitting) and consists of a high-flow air induction system, a high performance exhaust system including high flow catalyst and tubular manifold, and re-calibration of Ford’s potent 2.0-litre Duratec ST engine to produce 165PS. The more powerful Mountune Performance Stage 2 package will cost £1,838 (plus fitting) and adds new camshafts and valve springs to the basic package to deliver 185PS. Developed by Ford Team RS in a new association with Roush Technologies Ltd, which owns the Mountune Racing motorsport brand, these packages will only be available at specialist Ford dealers. The upgrades have a minimum of 12 months/12,000 miles dealer warranty up to a maximum of three years/36,000miles. The upgrade kits do not affect the vehicle warranty and will be available from the selected Ford Dealers from March 1st 2008. Company press release, last updated on 01 / 10 / 2008
