  16. Hey PPL As the title states my old man picked up an old Expensive Daewoo HD Sedan.Dark side I know.. All good though he owns two fords as his daily drivers so crisis over. He bought it of a bloke up sydney way who had it given to him off the original owner. The car still has the old log books the news paper write up and all sorts of other crap. It was last registered in 1992 according to the label on the car Now this particular car isnt just a basic HD. Its a HD X2. It came out with a 179 red motor and comes with twin carbys. Its bronze in colour with a white roof. Its got a funny scoop under the front bar as well as a scoop directing air to the brakes it also has a smal extra fuel tank mounted in the boot. Now for the questions..... Who knows more info bout these cars. Were they raced at bathurst Searched the net and not much info there Robbo

    Fpv Terry

    Taken from car point ..............Ps Click here's dont work "Australia's first-ever uber-SUV is just around the corner. Finally! Despite Ford's attempt to hose down expectations (more here), Blue Oval dealers are now talking openly about the long-awaited FPV-fettled Territory. Indeed, the Carsales Network has been told dealers are gearing up for a Sydney Motor Show unveiling and the hi-po all-paw's general release later this year. FPV operator Prodrive is believed to have accelerated the 'Territory Plus' program in case sales of its F6 and V8 models slide prior to the Orion's arrival in March-April 2008. Since Ford's top Territory Turbo Ghia currently retails at $65,490, the new FPV model is expected to be priced higher than $80,000 by the time on road costs are added. This is consistent with the premium that the FPV F6 Typhoon commands over Ford's XR6 Turbo with a similar lift in specification. Likely to exceed the LTD's current $75,525 list price, it is expected to be the most expensive locally-built passenger vehicle Ford has sold Down Under. The rationale is that it will represent an almost $40,000 saving over the BMW X5 4.8i which it will closely shadow in performance. The new X5 4.8i delivers 261kW and 475Nm from its V8 engine. FPV's F6 turbo 4.0-litre six-cylinder generates 270kW and 550Nm (currently!) so expect FPV to deliver an on-paper specification that presents a compelling case for the new top end Territory. Released in July 2006, the Territory Turbo's conservative looks and specification have left plenty of room for an FPV version. Liberating the F6's extra performance in the Territory's packaging is unlikely to present too many problems, especially since the AWD already has an 'engine-top' intercooler location. However, the significant boost in performance may have forced mechanical changes further 'downstream'. The main concern for Prodrive engineers is that an FPV Territory would more likely see heavy towing duties and extended low-speed slogging through soft surfaces (perhaps together), than FPV's sedan or ute range. For the standard Territory Turbo, a special version of the high torque ZF 6HP26 six-speed auto combines XR6 Turbo/F6 internals with the SY Territory's outer casing. This will have required further tweaking for the FPV version. As a new DSC vehicle stability program had to be specifically calibrated for the Territory Turbo's larger 18-inch wheels and all-wheel drive, it is uncertain how far FPV has been able to deviate from this wheel and drivetrain specification. Expect the FPV Territory to also feature major changes to the grille with a deeper and wider intake area, a heavily revised front fascia and a larger, more aggressive bonnet scoop. A new, more radical alloy wheel design will help lift the FPV Territory well clear of the standard models. And because there will be strong family links with FPV's F6 models, expect triangular inserts and grille mesh to make an appearance in the lower fascias front and rear -- as for the F6 Typhoon -- along with a roof spoiler and revised exhaust outlet. Although specific Territory Turbo brakes with a performance caliper design and bigger rotors were added to the Ford version, expect the AWD to feature a variation of the Brembo systems as fitted to other FPV models. The Territory Turbo's suspension was left standard apart from a small upgrade to the front springs to carry the turbocharged engine's slight weight increase. It is in this area that FPV will make the biggest advances with a firmer, more agile damper specification. Given the target market and the already luxurious Territory Ghia Turbo interior, the overall feel of the exterior and cabin will be somewhere between the sporty Typhoon and sports-luxury Force 6.

    Speeding Fines

    Wes yes in order to use lidar(officer out side of car) (lazer) they must have the car on the side of the road with LIGHTS only. They also have to be at approved locations. Assessments are made on the locations by senior officers. An officer can also use the lidar inside the car. He still is alowed to sit in a hidy hole in the car and shoot the lazer through an OPENED window of the police car. They can also use it on an incline/decline but it depends on how steep it is. This is correct however police can issued two types of infringement notices. Radar Infringement Notice (RIN) also can be used with lidar. Traffic Infringement notice(TIN) Police can not issue a RIN if there is another car travelling in the same direction if it is within 200m however Police can do an estimated speed of the car they are looking at and use the radar as a back up and in this case they would issue a TIN
  19. I would have loved to have bought either blood orange or manderin.. Dark tints lowered nice wheels = Hot
  20. Ford surely wouldnt be dumb enough to make another au would they?? I recokn BFMKII looks auish in the front. although the fairmont ghia looks very nice
  21. IB I think youll be rather shocked if you priced them at your friendly ford dealer... It is a spare part after all I know Stealthxr (pete) uses some sort of rubber conditioner on his. I had a look the other day at them and they are really soft.
  22. Dags where do you come up with this. What are you taking... Good time waster.. OTT for me
  23. I dont understand why people would build in a KNOWN TORNADO AREA!!!!!!!!!!
