Big vote for a FiST, especially the last few years where you got backup cam and Sync3.
Worth noting of course that it's relatively easy to add both of these to older models. Running the wire for a backup cam from the hatch in to the roof is a pain in the rear end but beyond that both operations are more or less plug and play plus a bit of AsBuilt twiddling with ForScan.

More like CBT amirite.
Not a fair comparison, what kind of a masochistic pervert gets their jollies from a CVT?

Just got finished with the most intense ride in my GTI so far.

For all that nonsense about the FiST not having enough cargo space I say: move the cargo tray down a level. Bam! 5 sq ft more space. Doesn’t solve the seats not folding flat, but that’s due to the ST seats having more bolstering.

Don’t know if this has been mentioned or not and it’s not a solution if you need to use the rear seats for passengers, but in the Euro version at least, if you remove the rear seat base the seat backs fold flat AFAIK

The rear seat bottom on the Focus folds forward, you'd think the Fiesta would have the same provision.

It doesn’t. Other fiesta trims do. It’s stupid.

ACCIDENTAL SHIT POSTER


Since my GTI basically killed itself, I've spent a lot of time and money getting the old mini back to road ready. Was going to sell it back in the day, but I'm blessing my laziness now. New battery, full fluid flush and oil change, tire rotation, and some more poo poo they discovered while doing the maintenance. Out about a g, but the 08 with 87k miles is back in action! Better than the 7k is going to take to get the VW back up and running. With the price of used vehicles these days I'll fix it. Eventually.

Edit: poor mini sat outside for something like two years. Got it washed, but she needs a legit detail at this point.
