Ford marks are ridiculous - on the Focus they changed EVERY body panel in early 2008...yet most of the interior and the floorpan remained the same so they called it the Mk2.5 instead of Mk3....no-one on ebay has a clue what car they're selling parts for! 
That bit was aimed at Chris' mate really. 10s 0-60 is more than adequate for a daily imo! Only time I want more from mine is 65+, but its not 'slow' enough to worry about and I don't feel I'm holding anyone up. Very different to the '6 where I want more at 1500rpm. Gonna take some time getting used to petrol again I think lol.

30-60/70 near enough every day though....which is what matters...
What is the 0-60 on this anyway? Must be quicker than the Focus and that's only just over 10s iirc...How quick do you need for a daily commuter lol?
I don't need a quick daily commuter.
The 306 got a good blast almost every time I drove it though, just couldn't resist it when the road opened up slightly even when commuting.
Now it will only get good blasts, but will be even more pampered!
