Zetec has alloys factory, different interior colour, sports suspension and more aggressive gearing (WP Zetec manual is 4.25:1 final drive, don't know about WQ). Also fog lights...

Amongst others:

1. The LX comes with 15" wheels with hub caps, the Zetec comes with 16" alloy wheels.

2. The Zetec has Sports suspension.

3. The Zetec comes standard with ABS brakes, whereas ABS is optional on the manual LX.

4. The Zetec has front fog lamps, really cool ones...

5. Ya get a cooler gear knob in the Zetec.

6. The Zetec has steering wheel mounted controls.

7. The Zetec has body coloured side mirrors.

8. The interiors in the LX & Zetec are different too, the Zetec is more sporty.

There's nothing at all wrong with the LX, but the Zetec feel firmer on the road to me. And providing you "run the car in" correctly it'll be a little rocket!

Please explain...

Here was my WP Zetec




Spotted it the other day - was soooooooooo dirty. Poor car... :

As for the shorter gear ratios on the Zetec. To be more specific, this is ONLY on the manual WQ model (Latest model).

Yeah The good leather couch is always covered in plastic to stop it getting dirty hahahaha, bloody wogs.

BTW Donkey lover (Thats a very suspect nickname : ). The side strip stays as is for me. I think the black breaks up the red, and I like it.

It was a prank on my last day working for Amdel, I found it somewhat hilarious. What else do you do with around 400m of glad wrap?

I was collecting bubble wrap at one stage to make a 'space jump suit'. Even had a separate colour for a hood n all but then I got lazy and procrastinated like normal.

Here's my LX.
I doctored the pic of the VW Polo GTI from another thread. I couldn't help myself.


Another shot.




And here I thought it was just us Filipinos who enjoyed the convenience of plastic-covered furniture. I knew a guy who left the plastic wrap on the seats of his new Honda Civic for as long as possible. The static discharge when getting out of the car was unbelievable.
