physh Member 248 Member For: 22y 3m 7d Location: Canberra Posted 01/10/05 09:51 PM Share Posted 01/10/05 09:51 PM Only $500? You should try a 200,000km service on a diesel Landcruiser...About $1300... :/On topic though, With my BA, I found it much cheaper to take it to an independent (non-Ford-dealer) place that can deal with warranty jobs etc - cheaper, REAL service, and knowing that 1st year apprentices aren't pulling my $50,000 car apart badly... lol.

AFAIK the cheapest FPV product is the F6 which retails for $58K (starting price, add leather, Brembos and onroads etc). You might be lucky enough to pick up a runout F6 for a bit less but that is the retail on them. GTs and GT-Ps are of course dearer again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both cars are base retail price and he did say 'territory' meaning 'ballpark' ~3k with no wheeling or dealing.. zoom zoom, ahh nope.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the brocuhres in the mail, l reckon its a nice classy looking car with a lot of fruit for $54k. Xenons, glass sunroof, leather, Bose stereo etc.By far my best car ownershp experience was a Mazda MX-6, it was a lovely car, great quality, satisfying to drive and to top it off the dealership service matched the car.Will try and get some pics for those interested.
