Default Mondeo ST220 traction control/esp question

Hi all,

I sold my Mondeo ST220 on Tuesday, since then i've had the guy who had it off me calling up asking why it hasn't got a switch to turn the traction control off. I haven't got a clue, so does anyone know if it should of had this or not-was it an optional extra??

Here's the link to my ad, apparantly the switch is mean't to be next to the boot release button but if you look at my pics there is just a blank in there.

I had the car up for £3000 but let him have it for £2450 as I needed a quick sale, along with this button he has also kicked off that it has an oil leak and the power sterring pump is on it's way out-things he only noticed the day after buying it.

He has phoned up ranting saying I have ripped him off and wants his money back, I explained that i was unaware of any of these issues (which is completely true) and that he had all the time in the world to check the car over and I had nothing to hide with the car-all known issue were made clear to him. He also took it on a substantial test drive where i let him drive it as hard as he wanted, So therefore I explained that the car was sold as seen and I won't be giving his money back.

He then went on to say how he has just got out of prison and if I didn't want to refund him he will sort this out his own way. Again I told him there would be no refund and the money had already been spent on fee's for my new house-then he hung up.

Anyone know the answer regarding the switch, or how best to deal with the situation should this guy turn up on my doorstep?

Cheers
