Hello from an American in England!

Greetings!

I am an American and move around every couple years for my job. I am currently working in UK, but have ordered a US-Spec Fiesta ST. I am quite excited, but this isn't due to the US port for shipping until 31 March, so it could be April by the time I get it. It is an exciting time reading though and planning modifications. I ordered it in blue with Recaros and painted wheels. No nav, since its unless here, and no sunroof since I had problems with my last sunroof vehicle (2003 VW GTI) and hardly use it anyway.... plus I hear that removing the sunroof lowers the center of gravity for better handling and gives a greater amount of headroom also.

I got a good price and a good warranty and think this is going to be even more fun than my previous hot hatch. I have been doing some lurking, reading many of the posts here, and am a Fiesta ST enthusiast!

Regards,
Dave

Welcome mate. A sunroof in the UK, yea that would be funny.
I see a few every now and then here, but you are right, it is quite uncommon... maybe 1 in 20 cars. I guess its probably because the weather here does not warrant a sunroof.
