The voice control is part of the Bluetooth package.
Depending on equiptment levels you can say CD 4 Track seven or Climate Control 24 degrees etc and you get it.
Also when you've set the phone up properly you can say "Phone home" or "phone Ford customer support centre" (only joking) and things like that!!

1. Voice control comes with the Bluetooth option, and it's brilliant.
As Dave said it will control the radio/cd, phone & EATC.

2. Seems OK to me.

Bish mate, I did tell you it was the best option to get when you were looking it is an excellent bit of kit.
Good news is it can be retro fitted as it's just a nokia kit that fits behind the glovebox, only snag being you'll probably have to pay full price for it now.

1) I love the bluetooth it works well with my phone as well its the best handsfree I have had and a gr8 gimick to show passangers when you give them a lift

2) Not noticed the bonnet but dont you think the face lift grill is more plastic and cheep looking than the pre-facelift?

Not sure how much it would be but you're better off asking you local ICE dealer than ford, as it's only a Nokia kit that's fitted behind the glove box. Also, you don't need to have EATC.

Looks neat, but it doen't appear to connect to the radio so won't automatically mute. I hear that Parrot make decent bluetooth kits, like THIS ONE.

no point getting the cheapest one if its crap, would be worth spending the extra money to get one thats half decent

I totaly agree with you.
Personally I dont think you'll get better than the Ford option.
I was lucky as I got mine free in the deal.
