Hi all,
My names Andrew, im 24 & from South Devon. Heres my car, its a 2007 Focus ST3 3dr in Sea Grey. Bought it off PistonHeads in May '09.
Have modified it a little bit. Have added colour coded washer jets, aerial base, aerial & front and rear fog surrounds. Also tinted rear lights & Grey / chrome gel badges from DMB Graphics.
Did the lights myself with a rattle can, but might replace them with some aftermarket led black ones.
Here are my previous cars aswell.
1st car, '99 Focus 1.6 Zetec. My 18th b'day present. Jan '04 - Jan '07. Modified with 17" Wolfrace alloys, Piper s/s exhaust (needed a new backbox when bought but bought this cat back one), smoked lights, colour coding & lowered 30mm (eibach springs).
2nd car, '00 Focus 1.8 Collection. 21st b'day present to myself. Dec '06 - June '08. Bought as pictured but added Seat Leon Cupra R front splitter, 17" BSA alloys & smoked lights. Was lowered 30mm (eibach springs) & had a small boot build.
3rd car, '06 Mondeo ST TDCi. Wanted a diesel, something newer & bigger. June '08 - May '09. Only added a personal number plate, colour coded washer jets & aerial base.
Sold the Mondeo to my dad (still drive now & then) to buy the Focus ST. Plan to keep it for a few years then see how much a Ultimate Green Focus RS Mk2 2 is.

Top car, a friend took me for a spin in his and was suitably impressed but.....colour coded washer jets!!!! whats that all about!
Nice car
Ford are tight wods and their black plastic that will eventually go grey with polishing. So their now painted Sea Grey to match the car. Top car, a friend took me for a spin in his and was suitably impressed but.....colour coded washer jets!!!! whats that all about!

Yup good to see another Ford fan Love the ST
I was tempted by other brands but the ST was what I wanted. Was after a DC5 Integra Type R in championship white with c pack but the insurance was nearly double (as its an import only car) when I bought the ST.

Believe it or not my first and 2nd car were exactly the same as yours although the green one was an 1800 and my silver one had about 2k worth of "ice"
I then turned 21 and went for the Mk 1 focus RS - love it
think about changing to an st but ill wait for the new rs although i have been very tempted to move away from the fords and try an r32 maybe am just kidding myself on
Cheers
