Can anyone fill me in on what's so special about the Greenline edition and whether it's any good?

I have one concern as I hear it has privacy glass and our licensing authority is strict on privacy glass so could it be an issue?

The Greenline is more Efficient in part because it has lowerered suspension...not a great idea for a vehicle carrying 4 Punters with Luggage..Speed humps will just love it. :roll:

The Ford Focus econetec (?) had lowered/stiffened suspension, some front/rear spoilers and low resistance nitrogen filled tyres, to hit 70mpg i think
