Default New runabout Mk3 diseasel Focus ST

Picking up a new car on Saturday, been needing another run about for a while and fancied something well specc'd yet good on fuel, test drove both petrol and diesel versions and tbh didn't really feel much in it, not like the petrol is that quick anyway.

So anyone got one on here? Noticed you can get mountune kits for them, just wondered what your experiences and opinions were with those and other mods.

Yes, but what is available and where from? I've seen a couple of diesel ones with mega mods like intake, exhaust, intercooler, etc. wouldn't go that far but seems there's a decent bit of kit available for it.

tbh id just get a remap as it makes a massive difference on turbo diesels. nice and cheap mod for the power gains as well.

id imagine any of the known companies remap them no bother

Thanks for the input, I'll look into the above. Handles really well, took it out some windy roads today as I'd only driven on motorways and main roads so I was very impressed with it.
