Posted 09/11/05 05:31 AM Share Posted 09/11/05 05:31 AM how many k's how old? arent the required by law to warant 2nd hand cars anyway?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>My option of 2nd hand car warrenties are that's they are not worth the paper their written on...Brought an old Subi under 2nd hand car warrenty a few years back covered under a 2nd hand warrenty, and almost everything broke on it (clutch \ brakes \ suspension), and they dealers had put exception clauses right throughout the warrent... Basically for them to have honored the warrenty the engine would need to have fallen out from under the car and be smashed into little pieces, and even then they would have looked for a way to not warrent it...As for buying the T, just do it... It sounds like it hasn't had to much of a hard life... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway a clause in the contract meant he didn;t have to fix the dual fuel gas sytem which cost a fortune. But the newer falcs are much better built quality and you shouldn't have much trouble, hopefully... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle!

The gearbox blew apart at 140km/h just near the shell. Cost of repairs $6500, diamond care coverage... $2500. Luckly it turned out they had not put oil in the gearbox on my last service. My dealer sorted it out well with me. The factory warranty can still be blacklisted unless you remove all the mods and return it to stock. Ford will try to get out of any warranty claims they can, if you have visable mods it is like a get out of jail free card for ford, and will come down to how nice your dealer is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
