SVT's DO NOT HAVE TRACTION CONTROL!!!
IT WAS NEVER AN OPTION!!!
There has been one instance to date were an SVT had TCS installed from the factory. In order to defeat the TCS a switch had to be installed. The switch DID NOT magically make the TCS work it ALWAYS worked to begin with. (I.E. you can never spin the tires because it "automatically" kicks in)
Maybe I worded things wrong then. What I meant was it may be possible that SVT's with the wiring for the switch could have traction control.
As my post stated, the traction control is disabled using the switch or as you put it "defeated".

BTW - comparing a regular Mondeo ST24/Contour SE to an SVT/ST200 makes no sense... It WAS an option on the standard models.
ALL ST24's have TCS fitted as STANDARD. It was never an option. Maybe you are confusing the ST with the lesser V6 Mondeos (which I beleive also had TCS as standard) .
Do your homework in future before you start flaming..
