Is it just me or does there seem to be more performance places in w.a that seem to specialise in Expensive Daewoo rather than ford? There seems to be so many places around now that specialise in Expensive Daewoo and do a little ford work then ever before, I used to feel ford drivers get ripped but after a few good friends of mine have been treated badly by local and over east performance ford places, 2 of them have sold their fords and another is thinking of selling his. With fords copping a bashing all over the place and what seems to be Holden’s getting more and more exposure why is it we are crapping on each other. My mate has waited over 12 weeks to get some performance parts sent from a place ex east from a member on this site thinking they would be ok, the other waited months to get his car worked on and fixed and both shops were ment to be good reliable ford specialists. My friends have had their Holden’s fixed up and worked in weeks and at very little cost due to there being so many places around while the so called ford specialists seem only interested in ripping fellow ford people off and making them wait months for their cars to be done. I personally own a f6 typhoon and it is one of the best cars I have ever owned and will soon be taking the risks of doing performance mods and will say that if I get treated the way my friends have been treated I too will sell my ford and go to another brand. I know the f6 and xr6t are great cars and are a great performance car but if you are a car nut and love doing up your car you want to be able to do it and enjoy it, not be stuffed around and treated badly or told it can only be done for silly pricing let alone waiting months to get done or have your parts supplied. Is this common for ford performance places to do this, has anyone else been treated this way by ford people, has anyone else considered selling their cars due to this kind of treatment? Why is it that these places take your money only to make you wait months for your gear and treat you badly, word of mouth and future work is what will keep them in business, so how do they become good shops if this is how they treat people or is it that ford people have no other option but to have to put up with this due to the lack of performance shops available.
