Instead of researching in vain I'd thought I'd ask the people in the know.
What are the differences between the LT XR5 Focus and the LV XR5 Focus? I'm talking standard features more than asthetics. I know the NVH were supposedly improved with the LV facelift.

Not much.. The LV comes with the upgraded Sony Head unit with bluetooth. It also comes with the keyless start (press button) and some of the LT's only had front power windows... The rest is all pretty much cosmetic...
With the price of second hand LT's I reckon some of the LV's are better value, and are a better looking machine! |

Thanks DASH GT
I agree with you on the price of the seconhand LTs vs new LVs at the moment. Serious value for money at the runout prices. Unfortunatley they are still a little pricey for my megre budget.

Hey mate,
Theres even a few LV's with 50 kay on them for around the 26 mark floating around, as cheap as 24 kay with 80 kay on the clock... I would perosonally buy an LV because you should still get some warranty, even if its second hand! Cheapest new one I know of is $30,450 Cheers. |

LV's also have some minor engine part upgrades (one of the oil diaphrams used to go on the LTs) and a few also claim that the LVs are a bit quicker stock.
Whole car has changed cosmetically with new front and rear and also scalloped doors. Rims are slightly different, extra colour choice of White in LV, Mondus Grey seat colour not available after LT, short shifter, different dash, cup holders in centre console. Rest has been covered in the above posts ![]()
