| What do you like the least about your car? I've thought pretty hard and I can only criticize the positioning of the brake and accelerator. It is really hard to heel and toe.
Other than that I think it's perfect? (Apart from a minor rattle as the passenger door closes!)

| Re: What do you like the least about your car? for quite a while i hated the ecu light and everytime the same fault (pressure drop between turbo and throttle valve (check d.v.!)) checked the pipes and dv numerous times never found a leak but ever since fitting the forge tip no more light so im a happy bloke again
and the other thing i dislike is the interior door handles i have no idea what they are coated in but i can peel it away with my nail and it looks terrible

| Re: What do you like the least about your car? No one really has any major gripes then. I guess if you were that dissapointed you'd sell the car and get a new one.

| Re: What do you like the least about your car? Im not a big fan of the phase 1 fiesta zetec-s wheel that I own.
I much prefer the phase 2 wheels.
Also, I hate how the sterring wheel fades in colour - looks terrible!
