Hi, all I just pick up My XR6 Turbo about 1 week ago after wanting one for the last 3 years!!! Here she is XR6 turbo MKII (6 Speed Manual) with Prem sound, Sports leather seats Metallic Paint (Lightning Strike) Scuff Plates, XR mats and Pollen Filter!! 5 years warranty. She is a Sept 05 build one of the Last XR6 turbo MKII. I did order a BF over 1 month ago but my dealer keep mucking me about with the price! It ends up going all most 3K more then what we agree on! I pull the Pin and got my $ back and when Shopping! around for the Run outs was not easy as most dealers just muck you about and pull out old stocks like FEB 05 build and still wanted close to late $40's. At last I landed at Smithfield Ford and gave me the Best price with out pushing them!! And they source out a Sept 05 build XR6T MKII and also gave me a Loan car for 1 week as I have sole my SP20 that week. I have to say this is the first ford dealership I been to that have an awesome customer service I have to say Thank you to Karrina and Dean = ratt. They both looked after me. The car is great!! But I have gear rattles at Low RPM in 1st 2nd and 3rd gears!! I have spoke to ford they told this gear box (T56) are noise for the first 2000KM to 5000KM they told me keep and eye on it and they will check it out at the first 3000KM service see how we go! I might get them to change the gear box oil!! Other then that I am loving it!! :sofa::sofa::sofa: I have not open her up yet I have been giving it here and there!! The most RPM I have been is 4000RPM I will wait about 1500km to 2000km b4 I open her up to see what she got to offer!! :sick: Any way here is some Pic's!! Enjoy!! Not the best I will try to get better ones when I have time!!

Thanks

Dal :tease:
