Only 7 days till the lowdown event at whittlebury hall. If you’re about get involved. There ain’t no money in it for me, I just wanna meet some of you lot. Hopefully see some of you there 👍 www.lowdown-uk.com/product-page/calvin-s-car-diary-convoy-package
Calvin's Car Diary take my Hyundai i30N out for a while il give you the key, were in the same location, I think you’d be surprised at a standard car, get back to me if you’re interested
Damn? Yall are hard on lil hot hatches lol i have a 2019 fiesta SE sedan Lightning blue, so it literally looks like a bright blueberry, so that’s what everybody called it where I work🤷🏻♂️
This had me loling throughout brilliant delivery! The best thing about Calvin's vids (not just this one) is the human aspects. Funny asides, mistakes, flys walking on the trim during the closeups, wheelchairs in the road. Brilliant!
Fiestas are pretty reliable, plenty of people running well over 300+ on standard internals. I see yours is on a 13 plate Calvin, there was a recall on that year due to coolant leaking into the engine block.
@@DimoS... it was a common fault across all the early mk7.5s the coolant pipes would corrode and leak and since the MK7 has no temperature gauge you would unknowingly cook the head gasket. On the ecoboost the head itself would even crack in some cases
Yeah your right mate these cars are such fun even standard. Ours never got tuned because the head gasket went after 2months which also cracked the head got that fixed then 2months later it started using water again so got sent back but it was mental little car
yeah i agree, i think a light smoke on a lot of cars’ lights looks good. But these proper blacked out ones are the gayest chaviest thing ever, it’s just screams that the car gets redlined from cold start to halfords and back
Does sound great and shifts along strong too....at the start couldnt help but think the drivers door had a sort of browny tinge to it. Wrapped previously and the glues been left behind? Id return the rear lights to standard if it was mine and ditch all the splitters. You didnt give your opinion on how it compares to its main rival the Corsa which would have been interesting stock for stock.
Looks like a fun motor but dont understand how it can get anywhere close to its tuned power to the tarmac. Went to buy a Mazda 3 mps years ago, think they were about 250ho, and that just spun up everywhere, even in 3rd. Took it back to the dealers with melted rubber half way up the rear doors. Used to have a 250 brake saab carlsson, same deal, would melt tyres if you nailed that in 3rd. Would have thought anything over say 170hp in a fwd motor goes up in smoke?
ST1, basic stereo, cloth seats ST2, leather seats and Sony radio ST3, sat nav and cruise control and keyless entry, digital climate control and electric rear view mirror Difference in trim levels but some cars come with extras and some without. Probably more differences, I only know what my ST3 has vs an ST2 as that’s what I was looking for when buying. For example, my ST3 has parking sensors, but I know others do not. Some have a reverse camera etc.
If u drove a stage 1 or 2 st you will know how qucik these are coming from a 7.5 r owner, there’s a stage 3 owner on Facebook running 350 runs against golf rs c63 s3 and beats them all
Hello mate I enjoyed this vlog very much being a ford guy , I’ve just bought the Fiesta ST-Line 140 bhp I love it it’s bonkers. I look forward to seeing your RS 👍
About 15 years ago I got pulled on the M25 for tinting my rear lights... The cop wouldn't let me go until I scrapped all the paint off the lights... With a stone!
Dan Wright..A lot of these ST's are damaged and repaired unrecorded. My mate brought one from a car dealer, didn't realised it had filler and respray on the back panel. They are good cars, a stage 1 tune is more than enough.
Finally! I've got a Stage 2 Fiesta ST :P I'm a Vauxhall Guy too, Fords dont really do it for me but you just can't beat a Fiesta ST, so OP, they're very reliable too
@JOE FS no engine issues? Do some research mate, there plagued with issues with cylinder walls cracking, manifolds cracking, pistons cracking just like most other cars
Great honest review. Missed out the theft factor and right about the pops and bangs, as you get older you still wish you could get away with it but you gain more respect for the general public or should, sorry to say but not giving a shit is for teenagers. 😂
Mr330d it’s the same as the obd port mate the computer they use they basically plug it in it sends some stupid signal (again) to the ecu which turns the ignition on and there away of course if you hide your car keys away they would need to smash a window so hopefully you’d hear that but if your keys are by your front door they can scan them and also nick the car through the obd it’s a new tool it’s just the same as an iPhone plug in thing but they click a few buttons and it’s away it’s quicker aswell takes about 4-5 seconds to re program it to a new key aswell hence why I tell people to put car steering locks on and hide the keys far away make it hard as possible ... if needs be just take a wheel off at night lol bastards 👍
Why does a manual car just look way more fun on video? All these DSG/auto cars look boring under acceleration on video, but manual just adds such a sensation of speed :)
The bloke that sold it to you must be regretting it now, you’ve literally just picked his pride and joy to pieces, but to be fair people that do this to cars are spanners
Not useful, though, unless you’ve updated brakes, suspension, clutch etc. Like having a footlong dick. Might look ok on paper, but what are you going to do with it?
Ford never made a fiesta st mk2, Ford made a fiesta st150 which is the mk6 and the fiesta st mk7/mk7.5 then the fiesta st mk8 that’s the only fiesta st’s Ford created

Got any BMW alpina d3 2007-2009 models.I've currently got the BMW alpina b3 2002 model but after the d3
I missed you at the Beds modified show @ the sharnbrook hotel.. hopefully I can catch you at the LDUK show 🤟🏼
Calvin get a reliant Robin and do road test that would be so funny 👍 👍 👍
“I’m not here to sell this car” he says stood in his car lot full of cars for sale
🤣😂
I prefer the shape of these ST's than the newer shape.. definitely looks more sporty..
Them rear lights are hideous! That's a real Essex's boys car.
Damn? Yall are hard on lil hot hatches lol i have a 2019 fiesta SE sedan Lightning blue, so it literally looks like a bright blueberry, so that’s what everybody called it where I work🤷🏻♂️
@@GoodBoiStuff I've got a 2017 Fiesta ST and people call it a Jelly Bean.
Crashed into Halfords 😂😂
That was hilarious
Was u there ? 🤣😂
Fiestas are crazy for tuning! Only thing is the stereo system is really old school. Fantastic engines ( well the ecoboosts are )
Tinted lights look like shite 9 times out of 10 and cheapen the look of the car. If you're going to tint the lights it has to be subtle and light.
This had me loling throughout brilliant delivery! The best thing about Calvin's vids (not just this one) is the human aspects. Funny asides, mistakes, flys walking on the trim during the closeups, wheelchairs in the road. Brilliant!
dunstablem2 😂😂
Yes change the rear lights to stock look, then it will look top notch. 😁👌
Back taillights Chavy af.
The Drivers door is a different colour??
Loved the bit about not complaining “ooh, he’s raggin’ it”.
Good, honest vid, nice work.
Mk2 Focus RS ... one word yes !! 👍
I think bringing & tuning a Focus Rs to the channel with be a good move as the scene is massive
I have an st-3 and your bang on mate them lights are shocking and I like the clean look with a few suttle mods
Fiestas are pretty reliable, plenty of people running well over 300+ on standard internals. I see yours is on a 13 plate Calvin, there was a recall on that year due to coolant leaking into the engine block.
St is very reliable but what's wrong with some models and burn the headgasket mate?
@@DimoS... it was a common fault across all the early mk7.5s the coolant pipes would corrode and leak and since the MK7 has no temperature gauge you would unknowingly cook the head gasket. On the ecoboost the head itself would even crack in some cases
@@StanceSantos thanks mate 👍
Yeah your right mate these cars are such fun even standard. Ours never got tuned because the head gasket went after 2months which also cracked the head got that fixed then 2months later it started using water again so got sent back but it was mental little car
I think the lightly smoked LED rear light clusters would look a lot better than those fully black ones.
yeah i agree, i think a light smoke on a lot of cars’ lights looks good. But these proper blacked out ones are the gayest chaviest thing ever, it’s just screams that the car gets redlined from cold start to halfords and back

Great watching your videos when I'm looking for a new car

Awesome video as usual! Would love to see you get into Astra GTC vxr, mega fun car to drive think you would enjoy it
I have one and yeah it's an animal he should definitely have a go in one 276 b.hp standard

They are a terrible mate
Is it me or is the driver side door a different shade of white?
IMO the sweet spot seems stage 1 at around 215 bhp I dont own one but have driven a stage 1 & 2
“Im guessing it crashed into Halfords” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣. Previous owner wrapped his lights in a pair of tights! Great video 👍🏻
Couldn't ever drive a corsa because the reputation lmao looking at one of these to upgrade from my swift sport
If u drove a stage 1 or 2 st you will know how qucik these are coming from a 7.5 r owner, there’s a stage 3 owner on Facebook running 350 runs against golf rs c63 s3 and beats them all
Until you tune the others then it’s game over
OLewis the others are at least twice the price... that’s the point.
Hello mate I enjoyed this vlog very much being a ford guy , I’ve just bought the Fiesta ST-Line 140 bhp I love it it’s bonkers. I look forward to seeing your RS 👍

Hahahaha he made you look like a right mug.
@@alexb2612 think I was already a mug for painting my rear lights in the same colour as the bodywork! Live n learn huh.
Looking at your phone in the middle of the night when you’ve just woke up 😂😂😂 7:06
TehCito 😂
Personally a fan of the smoked rear lights
Drivers door looks like a different colour Calv. Could be wrong.
D F I agree and there is a big panel gap onto the front wing
Dan Wright..A lot of these ST's are damaged and repaired unrecorded. My mate brought one from a car dealer, didn't realised it had filler and respray on the back panel. They are good cars, a stage 1 tune is more than enough.
I love cars that are bit of a handful it makes them more fun
Wots price Calvin , ???? Why is drivers door a different colour??
Yeh I notice that too. Maybe it’s two cars 😂😂😂
the crackle map on the car was it the cat safe crackle map or was it the full on decat crackle map
Finally! I've got a Stage 2 Fiesta ST :P I'm a Vauxhall Guy too, Fords dont really do it for me but you just can't beat a Fiesta ST, so OP, they're very reliable too
First time watching you, really enjoyed the video! Seem like a proper sound bloke, earned a new subscriber!💪🏻😄
thise taillight on the fiesta are illegal probably very hard to see when it's braking
What do you use for 0-60 timer ?
Calvin do you remember what you bought and sold the car for?
i've done 0-60 in 5.66 sec with a stage2r from pumaspeed. its hard to get it of the line.
U got a lsd ?
@@kd2833 yes quaife lsd
I wish the USA sold the 2 door variant fiesta and focus.
The "got the hang of it now" clip at the end killed me 😂😂😂
Fezzy ST's have there own set of issues like the Corsas. Smiles per miles thats all its about though!
Touch wood my ST3 hasn't had any issues in 18k and 2 years
@JOE FS no engine issues? Do some research mate, there plagued with issues with cylinder walls cracking, manifolds cracking, pistons cracking just like most other cars
Would love to see a 981 Cayman S on your channel doing Draggy!
Mk3 💙 I love mine not a problem it’s perfect
Love to see a focus RS
Those back light are criminal
Drive a fabia vrs 1.9 tdi, with RARB and big turbo etc, proper fun
Hard to find now and there quite aging
A grey one of these with bbs wheels opinion?
Grey ones are ST200's 👍
Great honest review. Missed out the theft factor and right about the pops and bangs, as you get older you still wish you could get away with it but you gain more respect for the general public or should, sorry to say but not giving a shit is for teenagers. 😂
Oh how I wish I could get the 2dr over here.
Love ST Fiesta 👍👍
You could of mentioned how much these things get nicked because of the aux port major put off for buyers when there slapping out 6-7-8 k
Adam Sedgley How do they get nicked via aux port ? Just curious never heard of this I’ve heard of Obd relocation
Mr330d it’s the same as the obd port mate the computer they use they basically plug it in it sends some stupid signal (again) to the ecu which turns the ignition on and there away of course if you hide your car keys away they would need to smash a window so hopefully you’d hear that but if your keys are by your front door they can scan them and also nick the car through the obd it’s a new tool it’s just the same as an iPhone plug in thing but they click a few buttons and it’s away it’s quicker aswell takes about 4-5 seconds to re program it to a new key aswell hence why I tell people to put car steering locks on and hide the keys far away make it hard as possible ... if needs be just take a wheel off at night lol bastards 👍
Adam Sedgley Alright thanks for explaining it nearly as easy to steal as the nova on top gear 😂
Mr330d 😂😂 turn the hazards upside down and bump start nova shit
Why does a manual car just look way more fun on video? All these DSG/auto cars look boring under acceleration on video, but manual just adds such a sensation of speed :)
Is that driver's door a different colour from rest of car
How often do you get tunes cars in for sale
When's the raffle for this
The bloke that sold it to you must be regretting it now, you’ve literally just picked his pride and joy to pieces, but to be fair people that do this to cars are spanners
You want to drive a ‘stage 3’ fiesta st it’s another ball game with 350bhp
Not useful, though, unless you’ve updated brakes, suspension, clutch etc.
Like having a footlong dick. Might look ok on paper, but what are you going to do with it?
@@mrtriple2414 Porn probably
I’ve had 383hp fiesta st and now running at 400hp stage 5
Are those blacked out taillights legal in the UK?
Longs there’s still light shown during the night it’s still legal in the uk
Is that a seamaster professional I spot on the wrist. Daycent!!!
Will this car be on binca? How much I’m looking for a st
DxMxA it’s sold now mate
You're never too old to rally the sh*t out of that car😂 Great video, awesome review, I gotta go test drive one of these now🤙
Aren't the Fiesta, Focus & Transit essentially German engineered??
Thank you!
Your just back from a holiday and your #onit with an upload 👍
Get a 6c gti manual mate, drove both and went for the polo, much nicer place to be and to drive 🤘
Looks stunnin 😍
I own one of these too, and I agree.. Those rear lights are bloody awful, would never put those on mine personally
All these Corsa owners are switching to fiesta st's 😂 great cars but so many are chaved out
That car gives you the RS type feeling . Not only that GLUED to the friggin ground . That fiesta st will make a shit driver look good too hahaha
I've been looking at these all week, how strange
Get a post 14/15 plate one. They have better suspension. A 16/66 on ST3 will give you the the same suspension as the ST200 👍
Alex B definitely good tip mate, also 2016+ come with LED rear lights.
Polo GTI soon?
What year is this model mate?
2014-2017 all fiesta st mk7/mk7.5 models
You are bang on, great cars and really quick, but spoiler lifters and them back lights that look like someones mams old tights are shocking
Calvin u need to drive a clio 182
Would rather a VXR over a ST 🤙🏼
@Never Look back You forgot chocolate pistons
Said no one ever
Man spunked all his UA-cam money on a holiday now he’s put bare adds on his Video Kmt

Great vid calv 👍 rs next bro

I'd luv Fiesta St mk2..
Ford never made a fiesta st mk2, Ford made a fiesta st150 which is the mk6 and the fiesta st mk7/mk7.5 then the fiesta st mk8 that’s the only fiesta st’s Ford created
Cheers calvin
