M-Sport
Edition Ford Fiesta ST
Small
hot hatches are "the bomb" and this particular example makes no
exception. It was signed by M-Sport's partners at Permashine and it brings a
host of styling enhancements, mirroring the Fiesta RS WRC.
Each
car has 2015 M-Sport World Rally Team livery-inspired graphics, a unique gloss
black rear spoiler and individual carbon fiber build numbers on the tailgate.
In the cabin there is a custom steering wheel wrapped in leather and Alcantara,
while the M-Sport logo is found on the custom embroidered seats, floor mats,
gear lever and on the rev counter.
The
1.6-liter EcoBoost direct-injection engine received a Mountune MP215 upgrade,
which nudges output from 200 PS and 274 Nm, to 215 PS at 6,000 rpm, and 320 Nm. Power is sent to the OZ Superturismo
LM 7x17-inch ET42 light alloy wheels through the Ford IB6 gearbox, which
features a Quaife ATB limited slip differential. The extra oomph doesn’t
interfere with the factory warranty of the car.
Those
interested in more options can get the "Handling Pack" with Eibach
Pro springs and Bilstein inverted mono tube struts, along with Alcon calipers,
332 mm discs and Goodridge braided brake hoses. The M-Sport cold air induction system
with Pipercross high-flow foam filter was added to the package too, with the
modified exhaust system with a custom-made rear silencer completes the upgrades
list.
The
Ford Fiesta M-Sport Edition costs £ 21,600 (US$ 32,511) OTR, in the UK.
