Good observation, sridharps. I have pointed out these deficiencies too in another post. Ford ought not to have pruned these features in the 1.6 S.

One good improvement by Ford is the introduction of an MP3 compatible player. But I still feel they should have retained the 2-din 6-cd changer and made that MP3 compatible.

BTW, has anybody compared the output of the new cd player with the old Fiesta 1.6 sxi's? Is there any variation in sound quality? How is the sound when you connect an aux-in? Maruti SX4 owners have reported that an Ipod connected to the stock ICE in the SX4 sounds better than a cd played in the same player. Is the scenario the same in the Fiesta?
