Ford Fiesta ST Mk7 review (2013-2017) – design
The ST was evo’s favourite junior hot hatch, hopefully the new one will be just as fun
The Mk7 Fiesta shape has always been attractively proportioned. The 2011 facelift added a larger front grille and more predatory headlight treatment, which work very well alongside the ST’s deeper bumpers, rear spoiler and 17-inch alloy wheels.
To our eyes it’s one of the best-looking small hot hatches currently on sale. Blue bodywork is traditional for fast Fords, but the optional Spirit Blue metallic paintwork was a £495extra.
The £275 ST Style Pack adds red brake calipers, illuminated door sills and smoked alloy wheels for a more purposeful appearance. Tinted windows cost an extra £200.
