They aren't basic by any stretch of the imagination, but I wouldn't expect to see auto-dimming interior or exterior mirrors, Alcantara, rear heated seats, rear electric headrests, rear electric lumbar support, ski-hatch, heated windscreen, passenger memory seats, solar sunroof, extended leather in platinum, Servotronic, audio controls on the steering wheel, heated steering wheel, fridge and other "Exclusive" options.
I can't say for certain that all FE's didn't have the above but I'd use the above to manage my expectations if looking for one in the future.

FE’s didn’t have platinum leather; it was silver grey, even though it says platinum on the build sticker. I made the mistake when I first ordered a Woolies leather restoration kit. But you’re right about all the other stuff, I think.
