I've had a 1.8 and have a 2.0 in Zetec trim.

The 2.0 has a little more grunt than the 1.8, but I found the 1.8 more driveable and much better on fuel.

The 2.0 had rear discs as standard, but they were available on the 1.8 as an option along with traction control, as mine did.

I'd would have had another 1.8 if I could find one with rear discs.

This.


If you're looking at one, make sure everything is tight and there are no worn bushings in the back. The bolts rust and sieze up and it makes changing anything a nightmare.

One with an RS badge, although I don't think it's what your looking, can't comment on any others

I would also recommend the 1.8 Zetec. I have one and they are a very good car to drive.
