loopism Tractor Driver Member 709 Member For: 19y 2d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 23/03/06 07:03 AM Share Posted 23/03/06 07:03 AM Picked up my new car yesterday .. Mercury Silver (can't stay away from that colour - my old car was similar Falcon XR6 Turbo. 6 speed auto, premium sound and tinted windows Just need to book it in with the dealer again because there were three things wrong with it even before I picked it up, chip in the paint on a door, a big scratch in the base coat on the boot and the glovebox doesn't line up properly. I reckon my 15 year-old Pintara TR-X has a better fit and finish than the new car Oh well ... the performance makes up for the faults ... mostly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they went over these cars with a fine tooth comb BEFORE the customer arrives to pick it up. Hope that's the LAST of the problems you have with it.
