Next Falcon update October 2005.

What will change:

- Most likely minimal cosmetic changes, new bumpers almost across the range, new colours, new interior fabrics and colours

- 6 speed Auto will appear (Ghia, XR, FPV, LWB)

- Premium brakes standard on T, XR8

- Slight equipment level changes

- Basic six will make 190Kw, XR6T will make ~245kw through VCT reprogramming and also to meet new emission targets

- ESP will appear on the six cylinder on some cars

Fairly minor upgrade.. 6 Speed auto is what we have all been waiting for, more ratios, smoother, stronger, lighter, quieter.

Colours a phased in and out almost continously these days. As colours are a easy and dramatic way to spice up a car.

I'm not 100% sure Velocity has already gone, however I wouldn't be suprised if it got phased out fairly soon. Icon is arriving in April, and is in a simular colour family as Velcoity. My guess is they might chop off a colour when Icon arrives. However Icon is not avalible on XR's so while Velocity is.

Its stability control or to be specific Electronic Stability Program, Ford call it DSC, dynamic stability control, but they are all basically the same thing.
