Are you sure it was "dark blue"? The ST comes in performance blue which is actually quite a light colour.

I think he meant ST, just to clear it up folks, the ST is the new Mk2 Focus sports version, the ST220 is the Mondeo sports version.

dont get your hopes up fellas....
I know why we dont sell them here...puts FOA cars to shame in most areas even if it is FWD. But I would cringe looking at the conversion costs (pound to AU$). Has to be one of the best cars ive driven overall. hmm seat warmers..lol
