Although it is just a piece of metal I am sad to lose my beloved M7 Zetec in ocean with x-pack 17" alloys.

Thankfully I took gap insurance out so when all is settled I will have 11.5k (give or take a few hundred) to spend on a "nearly" new car, and that car will be a MK7 I think.

Looks like it maybe a Z-S as 1.6 would be nice, Idf love the 17" alloys again if possible.

does the ZS come with a/c as standard? I aneed to look for a model with 3 doors, bluetooth, heated front screen, USB port would be nice!

    It sounds like you want a 1.6 Titanium with 17" alloys and dress up kit.
