Zetec alloys are different, they are the correct alloys
Ford are tight, they have a habit of removing equipment as production goes on, for example early Sierras had MORE equipment than later models, for example a MK1 Ghia had wooden door cappins and a bonnet light, whereas a MK2 woulden't, the footwell lights also mysteriously disappeared, then reappeared.
Incidentally some models also had an alarm which operate the same way as you describe.
It seems the older Fords were better equipped than the later models, which is one of the reasons I am a fan because of the gismos and innovation compared to other brands, for example the lovely heated screen which was a Ford patent design many years ago.
