He also says that it has been lowered, although I do not believe it has as I recently replaced the clutch and saw no aftermarket markings / stickers on the struts when the vehicle was up on stands.
the frst was 25mm lower than a standard fiesta it had alloys standard, and a spoiler standard, even though the spoiler and alloys my not be factory there still listed on the factory spec i think this is wrong who cares if it looks a little different its not like your hiding a full blown zetec turbo
the wheels even say ford just kick up a fuss and they'll pay you out i worked for multipul insurance companies and there all spineless wankers (no offence tony i mean the companies not the individuals)
