Just been down to my local dealership. they were useless. Not a sole in there. Just a load of sales people at the door waiting to pounce.

The told me the dress up kit isn't an option on the Titanium X, which we knew anyway, and "why don't you just get the titanium then?".

I asked if someone could find out if it's in any way possible to get the kit on the titanium X, whether as an option or accessories. "probably won't be able to find out" was the response.

He said he would try, but he was busy. Might be busy Until Thursday.

So with that I left and let them all carry on with their conversation that rudely interrupted.

Sounds like my dealer, just interested in selling. They tried offering me a fully dressed titanium, but I like the half leather heated seats and keyless entry amongst other things. Will find out soon what I end up with.

They can put them on in the dealer as a part of a retail sale, but whether they will or not is another matter. Seems these days people don't want to sell cars.

My dealer is like that, has 1 guy there who's pretty amazing when it comes to finding stuff out and trying to sort things out, the rest couldn't care less.

I'm pretty loyal to Ford, but after the way I was treated today I'm leaning to the new Clio. You can have pretty much whatever you like in that thing. The online build your own thing is excellent.

I asked New Car Discount if the dress up kit could be added in the factory or at a dealership bodyshop. Their response:

" the kit cant be added to other models at the factory or by the dealer so if its not an option on a titanium x spec you have to build this spec up with any options available ."

Now I'm even more confused!

I agree that makes no sense, I have noticed on the e-brochure it says the kit is available as individual pieces.

i had the same problem. The dealership put a request into ford for me to have a dress up kit added to a titanium x which they rejected. In the end i went for a titanium with keyless entry,drivers assist,17" alloys,full leather,full dress up kit, frozen white £15280

Hi chilks.
I think I'm gonna go down the same route as you.

How do you find the 17" wheels? Do you feel every bump with the skinny tyres?
