All,

I hope someone can help - I'm looking to buy a used Mondeo 2.0 TDCI
130BHP and I've narrowed it down to 2 cars, ones an LX (2003) and ones
a ZETEC (2002) , apart from the obvious model differences, what's the
difference in the engines etc. what does the Zetec give me over the LX?
All websites I've looked at either don't tell me or elude to the Zetec
being sportier??

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Nathan

Are they both TDCI or is the Zetec a TDDI?

Have a look on fordmondeo.org for more info.

Both TDCI.   I've bought the Zetec one now mainly because it looked a
lot nicer, alloys, front fogs and the inside trim was a whole lot
nicer, rather than the bland dull charcoal there's some nice silver
trim and brushed steel effect around the stereo and dials.  I'm
assuming that this is the main difference that you can see,I've also
heard that the suspesion is different on the Zetec?
