Hi mate you used to have a blue one a couple years back if I remember correctly.
I've only test drove a st3 so far and that was very comfortable so I'll definitely take your advice on that mate.

An ST1 doesnt have traction control or xenon headlights (east spot as no washer jets in front bumper).

I'd definitely have another. Would even need to think about it.

Bloody loved my ST, only thing to be aware of is when they break they are usually very expensive to fix! Common items are driveshaft CV joints, clutches, air flow meter and the oil filter housing.


If I was to have another I would definitely uprate all the weak parts first before upping the power.

I had a good go in a 3 MPS before I bought my ST, it felt really cheap and flimsy, doors were about an inch thick and sounded like someone's dropped a biscuit tin when you slammed them. Not sure they are as easy to get more power out of like the ST either.
