HOLLY UPTON FIESTA ST200

-

Holly Upton’s stunning Fiesta ST200 created quite a stir, along with receiving plenty of favourable comments and the day’s show-andshine trophy.

Before picking up the ST brand new five years ago, Holly had been driving around in a 1.0 Fiesta, but when Ford called to say there was an ST available in her ideal colour and spec, she couldn’t say no.

Since then, she’s been busy personalis­ing the car visually and mechanical­ly. A Collins CP2E remap, ITG induction kit, Airtec intercoole­r and Scorpion exhaust all add up to a very handy 240bhp, while the handling has been enhanced by BC Racing coilovers.

The striking purple-and-grey theme within the engine bay continues to the exterior with a

Maxton lowline kit, rear diffuser and front splitter adding a touch more aggression. The Delta Styling spoiler with carbon blade and cleaner US-spec front grille suit the look Holly was aiming for perfectly. And let’s not forget the cool Compomotiv­e TH2 rims, which again look right at home and are a little different from the aftermarke­t rims we often see.

Holly hasn’t stopped there either; the already plush ST interior has been improved further with Recaro CS seats in black Napa leather and Alcantara, along with various other neat Alcantara touches.

“I’ll probably aim for a Stage 4 upgrade next,” Holly smiles.

It looks like this saucy ST200 will continue to evolve for some time yet.
