Thinking about trading in my Fiesta for an Escort or something in the summer, and was looking around on AT. Can someone tell me how it works, like what is the order of

Chincane
Cabaret
Flight
Encore
Ghia
Finesse
Zetec
.
.
.

etc

I had a google fest but can only find adverts and stuff, anyone know the whole line up and the order (lowest to best spec?) or got a link for me? I know that the Ghia is the best, and the Zetec is up there too, but where do the rest fall in?

Cheers

No not sure, just wondering what I'm looking at when see certain models advertised, like if I see a 1.6 LX and a 1.6 Saphire, how do I know what the difference is. I'm not buying a cossie because I have about £1800 to spend and I'm 20 with 0 NCB. :p

mk1/2 mondeo spec (need fox here really) off the top of my head is:

special models- aspen etc
lx
glx
zetec
ghia
ghia x

you want zetec or higher really, its usually not much of a price difference between one with poverty spec in a crap colour than one in a 'right' colour with a few toys.

I just looked up a few Astra's, and did a quote on a 3dr 1.6 Envoy through Admiral, £500 less than for a 1.8 mondeo! That 1.6 Astra Envoy even had a spoiler on it, score. :)

Cool, but get the 1.4 16V over the 1.6 8V

Same insurance group (group 4) but more power (89 vs 74bhp), quicker, more economical (40 vs 34mpg) and a much nicer engine :)

Ahh good to know, I made that mistake with my fiesta, I got a 1.3 over the 1.25, only to discover the 1.25 has more power and is more economical. :( Don't want to do that again.
