Love the look, it's almost Brawn GP colours.
The side skirts are standard on the 3 door Zetec, just not the 5 door.

Yep I’m pretty much sold on that. Interesting to read that its covered under ford warranty. Good to see they took a page out of Mini's book.

I've seen the Mountune stuff before for the WQ ST/XR4. It'd be great to see someone like a FPV or Herrod dealer pick this package up, it'd almost tempt me into a WS.

If herrod picked it up i woudnt buy it. It would cost more than the car itself.
Lets just settle for a group buy and bring it in privately. Everyone is a winner.

tempted to send them an email and find how much the power pack would cost to ship and then find out if ford aus would let u keep the new car warranty if you get the power pack put on
Edit: Hmm just saw it cost 1300 pounds without install over there. |

Hmm.. I wonder whether this adds some extra torque at lower RPMs or just uniformly pushes the torque curve up...
