Well, buying a car isn't cheap, and we have what we pay for. But if we could afford when we were making the choice what would we have bought for more?

I have a Ghia and the dealer asked about 650 pounds for ESP - ESP is optional here -, I wish I could have it.

    You mean, it's the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo some-infinite-number or the front grille and the bumper fitted for a Ford? :P

    I have every 'big' option Ford offered with my Focus, other than cruise control and the very rare dress-up kit. Cruise control would be nice for the numerous motorway miles I do.

    I can tell from your signature that you have almost every option. Cruise control is standard on Titaniums and the previous Ghias here. Believe me, it may sound very nice to have but it makes you sleepy and over-relaxed on open highways and the car just feels a bit out of human control.

    It's standard on the Ghia here, but wasn't on the Titanium at first. The facelift has it though, along with Bluetooth if not mistaken. I've cruise control before on hire cars and loved it :) never generally have sleepy problems when driving!
