You just need to keep them lubricated with the silica spray I think its called, which your dealer will do for you everytime the car goes in for service if you ask.

Belac Member 5 Member For: 19y 4m 10d Posted 15/12/05 03:09 AM Share Posted 15/12/05 03:09 AM I purchased an '03 Ex Telstra XR6T last month. (Black, sunroof, leather, premium sound, side air bags)Things to note..1) My center console has had a fair chunk cut out of the inside of it for a hands free-kit to be fitted.2) My car (apparently all Telstra Fords) is fitted with auto-on headlights. The headlights are switched on automatically when the ignition is turned to the on position. This is a hard-wired modification that was done specifically for Telstra, and will cost around $80 to have removed.3) I'm in the process of arguing with the dealer, as he told me the car had 12mths rego, but when the new sticker arrived it was only for 3 months. Apparently Telstra has a deal with Vic roads to register vehicles for 3mths at a time, and the re-registered it before they sent it to auctions.Other than that I'm pretty happy with my Ex Telstra T.Caleb.

Don't worry, I guess next time you'll be better prepared. I had to move fast on my first XR6 n/a coz I knew it was a good deal after I had been scanning what was on offer for several weeks.Good luck in your searches!

MercuryT Member 53 Member For: 19y 6m 1d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 17/12/05 12:20 PM Share Posted 17/12/05 12:20 PM I also bought an ex Telstra Car. Mercury Silver with only Side Airbags though. It was very tidy, other than the front bumper scratched badly (underneath) and the drivers mirror has a slight mark. All in all, the car is in good shape. As mentioned, the service history is first class, never missed a service, has had Mobil 1 oil all its life. It had done 60K's when I got it but had already had its big 60K Service. Gotta love fleet cars!I also have the hole inside my centre console. Not really a big deal though.Would not hesitate to buy an ex-Telstra car again. I wonder if they run Phoon's?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
