    The style is the basic spec with next to nothing extra on them. The connection would have some features but still not that great. Are you buying based on what extras you get or engine size, capacity? The zetec or titanium as it's now called is the top spec and don't buy anything under a 1.6 as they are underpowered.

    I just done some digging on old threads regarding you're query. I'll just quote another poster here:
    Just to add, in late 2008 the Focus Style got equipment upgrades which included alloy wheels, bluetooth and air conditioning making it slightly better equipped than the Zetec.

    If you are looking at a 2007 Focus then I would go for the Zetec Connection which was a special edition before the facelifted model arrived in 2008. On top of standard Zetec equipment the Connection model also got keyless entry, electric windows alround, 17" alloy wheels, voice activated bluetooth, digital climate control, dusk sensing headlights, rain sensing wipers and auto dipping rear view mirror.

    The Style is the basic model that replaced the older LX.

    Connect was an additional pack added at the time. There was a LX Connect and Zetec Connect. The Connect pack added keyless entry (can be troublesome), rear electric windows, alloy wheels and manual air conditioning on the LX Connect. Zetec Connect also added digital climate controlled air conditioning, auto lights and windscreen wipers.

    I know little to nothing about cars but I have an 07 saloon which I think is a style or LX but it has extras such electric windows front and back, alloys, bluetooth and keyless entry and ignition.

    Not sure if this question is allowed here so mod please just delete if it a problem.

    OP just wondering what price range are you looking at the two cars for? I am planning on selling mine and looking for a rough guide
