Hi everyone, Picked up the new bird after 3.5 months of waiting. Well ok its my mums car but I wish it was mine. Dad (plumb_bob) asked me to write this up. In a week we have 1,400km on the clock. We began our run in from day one with medium to hard acceleration from around 60 to 120 in third gear and varied revs and speed a much as possible. First night running-in we had a bit of a scare with the car suddenly jumping into limp mode after overboost. Shut motor down, restart and everything ok. On one run we were only to be away for 15 mins to fill up, this some how turned into 2.5 hour session, dad could not turn the bird around, awesome! Mum was not happy when we got home (its her car!!!!). The Ford guys have done a fantastic job building this car. Quality of finish is first class. Good on you all the Ford workers for such a great performance vehicle. Footwell lights are in....$1.18 from Repco, can any of you beat that price for two bulbs? Option list: SSS, premium sound, leather, boot liner, window tint, xr scuffs, spare alloy. We only had a limited test drive from the dealer but thanks to the xr6turbo.com forum we have been able to buy the car with confidence. Running it on BP PULP 95, seems ok, can tell the car is loosening up day by day. We will try to get along to most cruise days, now that we don't have to chase after all you guys in the Landcrusier. Many thanks also to BLOAN for his updates on the progress of the vehicle during manufacture. Thanks very much Now for the pics
