I reckon we would also do a 5 door ST but if that doesn't arrive next time wont be a Ford not because of the cars, just the dealers

Yep: should be able to, but been thru heaps if
ECU "updates" to no real effect. (why the updates? I believe one was for cold starting problems on Aussie Fezs - a problem I didn't have... The others? Who knows really? They wouldn't release updates if there was nothing wrong, surely?)
And I agree about the cars/dealers comment. Every manufacturer has it's issues, most Fezs are fine - indeed the Fez is superior to the Mazda 2 but is being outsold 2 to 1, but the Ford dealer network (rip Dale Ford, for example) and Ford customer care line are simply horrendous. Hopefully those who never have an issue with their Ford will never have to know how bad things are when the word "warranty" gets mentioned....
