YOOT

I thin I just hear don the radio they were kicked out, but I can't find any evidence to back it up. I'll have to wait till 8am for the next bulletin and see.

Most likely on the beach trying to get the same 1/4 mile time as the XR6!

I'll still be around! Just not in a Blue Oval (exept my work car!). If I need the go fast bug I'll buy a FOrester XT instead of an OUtback, but we'll see!

Signed the forms, and accepted the cheque and watched my baby of 2.5 years drive down the road at the hands of its new owner. I had a great time in that car, it treated me well. I had no mechanical problems, and it copped a hiding with me at the helm, and loved avery minute of it. I managed to get away with only 30% brake wear, still has the original tyres, and only traveled some 35,000km in that time. It was a joy to own, and it looked after me in the resale department, costing me less than $10K in in 2.5years, that's a damn good return. Especially on a Ford! I am moving on (or back to) a Subaru in the not too distant future, but between now and then I will enjoy the financial freedom and save up some hard earned cash. So from here I bid you farewell as an active member of this forum. I will still browse this site regularly to keep up to date with this model. But my membership in this exclusive club has come to an end. Thank you to all who I met, and those that I cruised with, great times, all the best!

not bad at all considering its a T5 ← Was the 'only driven on weekends' vehicle though....literally How many k’s Al? How's that xt power going? ← 34,000 in 2.5 years The XT is going very free thanks, its amazing how enjoyable a car is to own when it cost three parts of fark-all.

Just sold mine for $29,000 - There's always the right buyer to take it at the right price.

No but show were it makes sense to through more than you have to down the drain for the sake of what? Driving slowly through a populated cafe region with your windows down?

I have mine for sale for $30K and have had a few people interested. Get the feeling they will pay around $28-$29K though....

Interesting to see they complain about there being no lockable glove box, but the failed to mention the lockable storage tray under the front seat. It makes me wonder, if they missed that little detail and made part of the cars package look bad, what else are they overlooking...

So if Ford release a Fairmont Ghia with FPV engines, then they will be releasing the fastest depreciating car in Australia with the fastest Aussie engine. Sounds like a very good reason to stray well clear if you ask me. Maybe as a second handy in 3 years time when they have droped 50% of their value. I'll stick to the utes thanks.

That would explain why my ute weighs over 1900kgs with passengers.
