escort_jim

nice cars, tha colour is so nice

andy_st200

ive got one too.. personally id recommend putting the original airbox back on as your have 2 cold air feeds built into.. open cones are waste of time on the v6's they get way to much heat soak from the engine bay.. i lost about 10bhp from having a viper so ripped it off and binned it

ryanst200

omg serious!!

but i like the noise! lol

Pauleds

Hi folks, just joined the site so i hope you don't mind a few pics of my ST 200 Estate.
Paul.

ryanst200

Pauleds

Thanks bud, it goes ok too.

PPSSSHH

very nice motors fellas iv nit really studied them untill now as iv been a hard core s2 owner since i was 18 i know theres no turbo but these just seem to offer that little bit more like a touch o luxury with power

ryanst200

i tell u what m8 i'd love to see a turbo on one can u imagine 2.5 v6 turbo but i dont know where it would go cos theres not much space under the bonnet lol

Pauleds

I've had all sorts of quick cars over the years, Impreza turbos, BMW 325's, Vectra GSI's etc.

I am Police Ex-Traffic. I fully expect flaming for that, BUT i have had the opportunity over the years to thrash some good cars. The reason i bought the Mondeo ST200 is because it's quick, has an excellent chassis and gearbox and is one of the best handling big front wheel drive cars available.
I was out for a quick drive the other day in East Yorkshire on some cracking roads and i put the wind up a bloke in a 911. He couldn't shake me off, he pulled over and bottled it in the end.lol.(OK i was thrashing the ST but by god i was impressed with the sheer speed and smoothness of the thing). Excellent.

ryanst200

as it comes from the factory it is set up brilliantly theres nothing needed to be done to it, handles like a dream! well inpressed by it!

JamieMS

Pah you 200 drivers Get a proper ST..

ryanst200

nice m8 for a st24


no serious looking really good any future plans?

JamieMS

It's going back to standard as it's the wife's car. The TSW Pace 17' alloys are for sale and I will be taking off the K&N at some point soon. If I could be arsed I would also remove the Koni's but I like the way it sits on the standard alloys (40mm drop) so will properly leave them on.

Not sure what to do with it TBH, toying with the idea of selling it before she really drops in price as it's a mint W-reg with 46k FFSH etc etc. I could just drive it about till the V6 dies (which should be quite a while as I've replaced the waterpump for the metal jobbie).

Possibly gonna go for another Cossie, 2wd this time though.

bignud

can anyone help i have a st200 and i have been told that the diff has died ,does anyone know if they have a limited slip or standard,and what is the difference between the st200 and the st24. I will post some pics when she's off the 2 poster. also some pics of my other toys ,a mk1 cossie powered escort (which is soon to be painted)and a silver harrier.thanks bignud

EssexBoyRacer

Lovely cars fellas

I've got a V reg Mk2 V6 Ghia X (saloon) as a run around. Superb value for money motors (Got mine for Ł1750!)! Am in the process of collecting the RSAP kit.

Pauleds

Does anyone have a contact for a new exhaust for my 200 Estate?
It hasn't gone yet but they seem to be fearsomely expensive.

Ideally i'd like a stainless one which would accentuate the V6 rumble but i have been quoted over Ł500.

Cheers

Paul.

EssexBoyRacer

Have you tried the likes of mongoose, magnex, scorpion etc..

JamieMS

ebay's the place for s/s zorst. around Ł350!! Blue Flame.

Pauleds

Thanks guys i'll have a look on Ebay. Mongoose etc is even more than Ł500.

ryanst200

have u had any luck with the zorst m8?

Jamie200

ST24-poor mans St200

Exhaust- try Mongoose (blue flame), think estate should be the same as hatch/saloon. Supersprint do list the estate but it's expensive!!

ryanst200

rofl m8! i tell u what tho i cant stand it when someone calls my st200 a st24 it goes right thru me!

Jamie200

Yep you tell them you've got an ST200 and they say "oh an ST24" as if correcting you and you say "no it's an ST200" and they look at you as if you've just landed from Mars!

I also had the fortune of having to explain the Ltd Saloon bit. I got fed up and just said to people "I've got a Mondeo" as I watched their look of dissappointment, I smiled to myself.

ryanst200

lol! oh by the way m8 i seen ur st200 has a new owner! someone off mondeo sport!

Jamie200

Yep, glad it went to an enthusiast who'll look after it. I bought it from a guy from another Mondeo forum too, it wierd how the car has stayed with enthusiasts.

Lucylou

Hi Ryan! My thoughts exactly! Maybe you should take a look at www.stownersclub.co.uk

Hopefully we can get a few more people interested in mondy's on here and we can have our own bit of the forum!

JamieMS

Unfortunatly it's all about the RS on here at the moment Lucy, give it a few years and the ST brand will take over dragging the Mondeo with it.

And the ST24 being the poor mans ST200,,,, shame on you.

ryanst200

thanks i'l have a look!

Lucylou

I've NEVER said THAT! Read the post again!

I own a Panther Black ST24 and he is my baby, ask anyone. I am obsessed with my car.
Personally speaking i prefer the 24 to the 200. BHP isn't everything and at a recent STOC Rolling Road there was a 200 there that had a bhp of 153 at the wheels. Only 5 more than my car.
