....actually just noticed  100k miles OR 8 years... so would be due if 04 plate

[doz]

S-max is 100k or 10 years. It will be long gone before that needs doing 

[BazaJT]

There were three gearbox options available on the Fusion.A manual box,"ordinary" auto and a tiptronic type[I forget what Ford called it].Petrol or diesel engines and a variety of model options,Fusion,Fusion + and I think Titanium,leather upholstery could be had as could "privacy"glass to the rear doors,rear quarter windows and rear window.

Thanks guys.

All the boxes are advertised as semi-autos.

It appears that they're all coil-per-plug too
