Having recently test driven a 1.6 Zetec S, I was really impressed with the way it went and if the bodywork had been better then it would have been purchased there and then. Finding that Z-S has lead me to the Metal and S1600 that seem to have a few tweaks to liberate a bit more power which is always of interest. I'm not looking at eco-boost ones, just the 1.6.

However having internet searched all of the S1600s / Metals for sale at the moment in the usual places, some have twin pipes out the back but others don't... what did they come out of the factory with? Is it worth holding out for the Metal / S1600 over the standard Zetec S? Anything I need to look for?

  • edit - just found out that early S1600 have 118bhp, later (2011-) have 134, so I've answered one of my own questions...*
