The main attraction at the Ford stand will definitely be the prototype of its all-new vehicle line. "We'll be displaying our large range of vehicles, including four new ones that will be joining our model line-up," says Ford Australia President Geoff Polites. "While we are looking forward to revealing all our vehicles, we are particularly excited about showing a production version of our all-new vehicle line for the first time. "We unveiled a concept version of this vehicle last year and this is the next step in the process towards launching the new line in early 2004." Ford's reveal presentation at the Melbourne Motor Show will take place on stand 21 at 7.44am on Friday, February 28. Additional photographs of all vehicles will be provided to media at that time and uploaded to the www.autonews.net.au website that morning.Source: AutoWeb Edited 28/02/03 12:34 AM by CJF077 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DZ. Guests Posted 28/02/03 12:19 AM Share Posted 28/02/03 12:19 AM There's now a picture at www.goauto.com.auLooks pretty much like the R7 with a few changes to the front. I think the really interesting comment was about an FPV version being made available.... should be interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again I think the wheels are the offending items, but what about the claims about the interiors! Sounds interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DZ. Guests Posted 02/03/03 10:36 PM Share Posted 02/03/03 10:36 PM Yup, the angle of the photo is all wrong. From what I've read, it more closely looks like the Lexus Harrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times do we hear that the first photos are always terrible for Ford?It was the same with the BA Futura and XR6, they showed the worst photos possible. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
