  1. My mum's partner had his XR6 ute wheels pinched the week before xmas. Fair warning guys and gals to get a set of lock nuts.
  2. Whats the car that comes up the rear and the boom gate droops??
  3. Check your coolant. I had to put 4lt in my car the other day when the fan on longer and noiser than usual. Ford checked it and diagnosed a cracked/leaky readiator. Replaced it and all OK now
  4. it's easy... All you need is compressed CO2 and a way to capture it. Pathology labs do it all the time to store/transport sensitive samples. They do it using a small wooden box about 100x100x150mm with about 6 x 10mm holes in each side and a suitable connector in one end to connect the CO2 line up. Then they drop the sample in and turn on the gas. Hey presto a block of dry ice with the sample snap frozen inside. Not sure of the science but I know it works 'cause I have seen the blocks in the sink and added water for instant fog..... I DONOT recommend you do it, but if you then use extreme caution 'cause it makes lots of noise (ear muffs required) and CO2 burns can be severe.

  8. Well all I can say is that the local Plods now have 4 BLUEPRINT XR8's on the road dressed in the stardard livery and they look SWANK! And I thought they had no taste...I was WRONG!!
  9. For what it's worth, this is what the pic should have looked like.

  19. Why bother! You found the best so forget the rest :lol: BTW - Welcome aboard
  20. It seems that there are many XR6T's for sale that are less than 12 months old and are being offered at seemingly low prices on the private market. What long term effect will this have on the value of our cars? Should we be worried by this?
