The 1.6 is known for how excessively rough it can be, any improvement on this or is it just as rough? It's an awesome car and very noticeable upgrade compared to the MK7. Although, by that logic, the Mk5 should have been called the Mk4 facelift lol, Well.. technically, the latest fiesta is a mk6 (according to ford - "the 6th generation"), but yeah, most people consider the mk4 + 5 to be entirely different cars, hence mk7. Hey! I feel like it might be the only time in my life I can justify owning an RS, but on the other hand the Fiesta is good value for money. Page 1 of 6 - Super quick MK7 vs MK8 review - posted in Fiesta ST MK8 Discussion : Just been on a fourty minute test drive with the MK8. I'm sure I'll get the itch eventually, but I could happily drive this car to it's death. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. i dont think there is a mk8 yet, you have european, UK and USA versions, the main difference between EU and US, but i know there is no mk8 as yet, probably a facelift to the mk7 next year with the new ST, the first picture u posted was a mk6 before the facelift. I've got a test drive booked for Friday, but have had my heart set on a Focus RS. Has more torque and it's noticeable (Than a STOCK mk7), Dies off more quickly at higher RPM (example: third gear on the MK7 keeps on going but MK8 is stronger at low-end), It takes longer for the revs to return to idle, It oddly takes much longer to get up to temperature. It's truly one of the best engines I've ever used. by andyessex » Tue Oct 18, 2011 4:25 pm, Post Every Fiesta I've owned has rattled somewhere and the MK8 is still no exception. @djioor It's easy to drive it hard and fling into corners, and yet it's still very engaging. I find the seats way nicer than the MK7 in terms of appearance but they do pinch my big bum a little bit which I notice at first but then quickly forget about. I suppose my question is, has anyone went from the 1.6 to the 1.5? The interior quality is better but still not perfect. Post The 1.5 is miles ahead regarding smoothness and power delivery, boost happens so low in the range that it almost feels like an N/A. And the screen feels like it could be snapped off pretty easily. Thought I'd share my thoughts on the differences between it and my current MK7.

The ride is also far more supple, it takes bumps with considerably more grace - I can imagine it's quite comfortable around town and on the motorway compared to the MK7. The factory tyres really stick and it has the LSD so it handles really nice, plus you get the pops from the exhaust and launch control. The MK8 ST does seem to be very expensive for what it is compared to the relative bargain the MK7 was . It feels (and is) likes a bigger car, almost like a cross between the MK7 Fiesta ST and Focus ST. You could get it to be the same with a tune and lighter flywheel, but there’ll be a lot more vibration. 6. I wonder if the throttle mapping is way more aggressive at lower speeds or something, because at 20-40 mph it feels way more urgent than my Mk7. I like the 1.6 and I think it has more over head.

It's the only car for me right now, and I'm not planning on changing anytime soon. But die-hard old school hot hatch fans may find it a bit 'grown up'. Engine feels smoother and quite a bit faster, the sound is also a lot better! Top speed and acceleration figures become quite irrelevant, it's very engaging to drive. 1.6 vs 1.5 (Mk7.5 vs Mk8) Hey! ^ What he said. 18 Feb 2019 at 17:08 #5. If you let the car get to temperature it drives as smooth as any other car, it is indeed better than the 1.6 in this regard. If so what can you report on your experience comparing the two? I'm sure the Fiesta will do 95% of what the RS does for a lot less money, but I really want to scratch the RS itch. It also takes modifications, tunes and what not extremely well, there are plenty of people who already took it over 300HP. The seats felt better and posher too, the ST3 trim feels a lot nicer than the hard-wearing ST2 trim. I've just explained this to a friend asking me about new motor. I used to own the 1.6 and own a 1.5 now. However mostly on ebay and some site i'm finding that they're marked as mk7. by Seans_Fes_Mk7 » Wed Oct 19, 2011 2:59 pm, Post by purple97 » Mon Oct 24, 2011 1:25 pm, Powered by phpBB® Forum Software © phpBB Limited, General car related chat, questions, advice and important information about FiestaMk7.com. MK8 has a lot of extra toys though - Having Sync3 w/Android Auto and the B&O speakers are the biggest interior upgrades for me over the MK7! I suppose my question is, has anyone went from the 1.6 to the 1.5? by DGZS » Wed Oct 19, 2011 9:38 am, Post Please re-enable javascript to access full functionality. The stereo controls on the MK8 are also woeful; they feel like a toy. As andyessex said there is no mk8 and the new ST will just be a mk7 facelift. Posted by 1 day ago.
