Hi guys,

Many thanks..

yeah, I was referring to the facelift version, the 2.5, the standard zetec has the Sport suspension.

given the choice id go for the sport, or youll get the standard one and spend the rest of your cars life either trying to make it a sport or admiring it on other peoples cars.

I'm not sure about the mk3. some early Mk2.5 or late mk2 had a bastardized look of the two styles, looks a bit daft imo but I guess ford had left overs it needed to shift

Sorry, bit late to the party.

As long as it's the Mark 3 Focus Zetec S you're talking about then the basic differences are -

Sports suspension

Sports seats

Side skirts

Front spoiler and splitter

Rear skirt

Large rear spoiler with white high level brake light

LED tail lights

Centre arm rest

Z hand brake

Stop/start

Keyless start

Blue dash lights

17" alloys

Park an S next to a standrad Zetec and you'll see the difference

I was going so say there is no such thing as a "Zetec Sport"

theres a SPORT and theres a ZETEC, and then there is the ZETEC S

not sure on the Mark 3 though, I haven't looked at those

A 62 plate will be a Mark 3. There were Sport versions of the Mark 2 but I think the Zetec was better specified.

There isn't a Mark 3 Sport, there's Studio, Style, Econetic, Zetec, Zetec S, Titanium, Titanium X, ST1,2 and 3, and soon the RS range

well, in my own opinion, the sport is the ST

Zetec S could mean "style" as they dropped the "style" name :D

Shiwarrior, you aren't going to win many friends by suggesting style :-) Style was a basic model.

S dedinitely means sports. Notice that's sports with a small s.

Although I agree with WES180, special is a good description as well

I just thought as it added "cosmetics" and no "Engine" modifications, its Stylish! lol

When Vicky on Fifth Gear reviewed the first Focus ST(170),

She said 'ST' stood for 'Sports Technologies', the font/style of Zetec 'S' and ST are the same,

so I would imagine it is Zetec Sports.

Sports - Styling

Technologies - Power/Handling

My 'S' stands for 'Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious'

Just waiting for Halfords to get the 'X' back in stock, then I can badge it up............ :P

Zetec S looks better, so the Zetec S if you prefer the sportier look ?
