Hi,

19"?! The actual S-Max comes with rims with similar 5 spoke design but is 17", where can I find those? 19" will surely affect the ride comfort.

Here's the price sheet mondeo.jpg
Weird that the extra 40 ps and 40nm can only make a 1 sec improvement to the 0-100.

Is the new ecu mapping only for "show"?

A little disappointed that so much of the Titanium X bits are left out.
No screen (means no gps and no rear cam), no spoiler, only 17" rims, no tyre pressure sensor, no headlight washer, no rice bowl, no kitchen sink tongue.gif

I have to add this, the 9 speaker sony setup seem to sound tinnier than the "old" 8 speaker system.
I'm not sure if this is truly an upgrade.

Full leather seats are good and the old problem with low steering wheel positioning still remains.

The 0-100 km/h figure may be a typo. In the UK website stated as 7.3s.

I thought the headlight washer was standard even in the 2011 model.

Noticed in the spec sheet it says 6 speed with sports mode. dont think the 2011 model has the sports mode option.

Body kit looks nice.

The discount they are giving for the 2011 model not attractive enough.


let it out then let it in

I think 7.3 is for the manual shifter.
But still 0.1 sec difference feels too tiny for 40ps and 40nm.
Perhaps 0.3 or 0.4 sounds right.

There is a small button on the gearbox even for 2011 models, it is sports mode.
I tried it myself, feels much more responsive and aggressive shift pattern from gearbox.

Yes, I think the 2011 could do okay with 10K discount.

some sites quote the time as 0.5s faster than the 200ps one. however, one thing bout power is the understanding of peak power vs power through the rev range. if it's 40ps/40nm over a small rev range then it's quite useless. better to have a car that makes torque consistently across the rev range than one that has high hp but in actual fact only close to redline.
