I think the main problem with that test was the fact that John Cadogan is a professional fuel economist, so their test was run at under 90km/h the whole way with gaps taped up and mirrors folded, whereas this CarAdvice test was run in real world driving conditions.

Whole kit and caboodle here gents - http://www.caradvice.com.au/30255/ford-fal...-final-verdict/

CarAdvice has stuck the FG XR8 against the SS Late model camira with active fuel management on the dyno...interesting results!

Hi Guys, Just wondering what peoples thoughts are on the following article?

I went to the Motor Show as media with the other photographer on Thursday morning. All the photo's we took are here: http://www.kickshood.com/mshow And I couldn't resist but get a happy snap with the Mitsubishi girls :-). Paul

If veloctiy is red, I have attached a couple. Paul

I uploaded all the videos I did, sorry about the size: http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/thegarage The bigger ones are usually the decent burnout ones. Cheers Paul

For now I uploaded my my photos into a folder on my site, tommorow I will get them going into a gallery style thing... click here Most of the photos I took in 3-shot burst's, so that is why there are multiples. Paul

This was a pretty decent effort from an EF falcon, stock I believe.

I got a heap of photos and video, I will post the photos up now but video will be tommorow night. Attached is the picture of the 309kw EL XR6. Paul

I was down there with my brother today. I saw PASHEN and Geea's car's, looking great boys! Of course, plenty of tyre smoking, got a bit of it on video and plenty of photos. I will post them on my site as soon as possible. Paul

Sorry, what was that?

Is it that new that it's not even up yet? Joke ahead, but it's similiar to the page I'm gettin: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> that's what I got too <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What is the exact error? I can get to the site via anonymizer.com and my browser. Paul

, that's what happens when you take it offroad. I was surprised how many 4WD's we saw in Sydney that had never gone off-road in their lives. Paul

Is it that new that it's not even up yet? Joke ahead, but it's similiar to the page I'm gettin: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Seems to be working fine for me, give it another shot... Paul

Hey Guys, I recently joined a team to start a new Australian automotive website called TheGarage.com.au , it is a non-profit Australian Automotive Review & Inormation Website, so check it out when you get a chance. Anyway, we recently did a 3000km test drive in the new Ford Territory TS AWD and I must say, it's an incredibly impressive vehicle, it had a few niggly little problems (mentioned in review), but apart from that it was good fun to drive and an excellent car to take the family for a long trip. You can check out the review here. (Click) Cheers Paul

I made a small guide on how to get to the Sat Nav plug with high quality pictures, just incase people get stuck or whatever. http://www.thegarage.com.au/forum/index.php?showtopic=8

I don't think it's possible as every ICC is setup to run on an individual car... Paul

They may have simply disabled the interior lights because the doors were open for a while. Try holding the 'Dome Light' button in the car for 5 seconds and see if they come back on again when you lock/unlock the car. Paul

Try again, I just edited it in.

I couldn't help but have a chuckle at this poor salesman, check out this 'testdrive' video. http://media.ebaumsworld.com/testdrive.wmv Paul

That's not it. The XR speedo goes up to 260. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's from a Territory but it's the same crap apart from the speedo.

Here you go boys, this is what it looks like.

Hre you go guys, here are a few photo's that may help you out. Paul Ok, first you remove the gearbox surrounding which is easy, just put your fingers underneat the front end, it pops open, then open it from the back end. Then you will see the two screws in the bottom left and corner and bottom right hand corner, remove those (they hold the side skirting). Then you will see the 2 screws facing vertically, undo them and then you will be able to remove the tissue box holder.
