Electronic Stability Program as far as Im aware.

Different manufacturers call it different things, I believe Fords have ISP (Intelligent System Protection).

The answer is it depends.

Up until the face lift (I think), the 2.2 had ESP, cruise control and hydractive 3+ suspension, the 2.0 hdi (90 and 110) didn't.

From the face lift the 2.0 hdi is a different engine so it all changes.

ESP is Electronic Stability Programme and Traction control.

The ESP works quite well. Mine has cut in a couple of times and it can straighten you up if you corner a little out of shape. The Traction Control also eliminates wheel spin when you accelerate hard.

I think these two are great to have.

The cruise control is a nice feature too.

cheers,
