Hi,
purchased last week 07 plate 2.0S not bad spec although not a good as the same age Fiesta it replaces. 28k on the clock in near perfect original condition has spent most winters in a garage.
First mod likely to be ditch the run flats. The dilemma I have is they need to be replaced on the the front but the backs only have 4k on them so almost new

Good morning and welcome.
Looks a tidy motor. Good luck keeping that interior clean though. :wink:

There have been many discussions on here and all tend to agree the non-runflats are a big improvement.
Whilst it is not apparently illegal at all to run them on one end only, I doubt anyone on here would advise it, as it will give a very strange handling sensation.
My recommendation would be to change all four to NRF and advertise your RF rears on Ebay or similar. You'll recoup some of your money anyway.
Only other option is to fit RFs on the front, but then when the rears wear out you'll be back in the same dilemma.

Welcome to the board. Love the colour combo. 8)

Completely agree with enuff_zed on the run flats.

Welcome, another vote the non black interior
Agree with the comments re run flats, that said it really is only on certain surfaces that it feels so unforgiving - perhaps use it for a while and see...
I have a 2.0 s and think they are cracking little cars and not missing the extra two cyclinders, yet. If you do change your tyres do make sure you feedback - be interested to hear how you get on.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

That's a great colour combination too - I've never been a fan of black interiors either!

Welcome to the forum, that looks like Toledo blue

Thanks, I think it is montego blue but not sure to be honest

 

[Mr Tidy]

Your car is definitely not Montego Blue!

To find out the colour beyond doubt have a look at the plate on the driver's side inner wing.
