Update
Insurance hopeful of positive outcome with Ford over this
It could mean though big f!!! off sign ending up on the dashboards of all new St's and cars with similar setups though LOL
I think having a copper witness it makes a big difference when it comes to a court case if needed

Also the assessor that came out said on the balance of reason, would the average person or little old lady know that the car had rear disks and thus a different procedure to apply the hand brake and physical strength regardless of what is in the hand book


Top gear didn't mention the handbrake though on last nights review which was very good
rest assured the whole world will know if it isn't resolved according to him who is LOL as he has a Citroen hairdressers courtesy car at present
