Hi GAF, Well done good choice, solar silver ST is what I have On order. Wasn't sure by your comments if you already have the car or waiting on delivery as I haven't seen any facelift Puma ST's immediately available in UK dealerships yet.
If you do have it home it would be nice to see some pics please.

Cheers AliMac

At low speed on crappy roads the ST can be unsettled. But at 40 plus the ST wipes the floor with the pretend ST’s. And has considerable more grip in all conditions and much better brakes.

Didn’t know they still did Silver, don’t see many of those these days.

Those who don't like it compared to what they have WILL see it as a downgrade. There is no upgrade to power, handling or overall looks. Ford have removed the very popular Grey Matter and replaced It with Cactus Grey that has a hint of green. We all know a Cactus is not grey so perhaps they have someone who is coloured blind naming their colours. It seems they have taken the original dash and just added a pod to mount the tablet in. They had to flatten the top of the steering wheel so it didn't obstruct the instrument cluster. I don't mind the square steering wheel or the overgrown tablet but when I sat in one I thought they had a chance to improve the dash and give it better appeal and the front part of the centre console looks a bit weird to me. They could have improved upon the road noise of the car which I am guessing they haven't. That would be my main reason for not buying another along with the lack of support in the seat base. Thinner padding I guess compared to my Kuga which is extremely comfortable.

We now know why Ford have removed the indicator stalk which has been an industry standard for as long as I have been driving, BUT WHY remove it.

Unfortunately some of the competition are doing a better job of the interior styling which is a shame as there is nothing within the same price range which matches the performance offered by the 1 litre engine.
