bradj Member 7 Member For: 18y 9m 5d Location: Williamstown, Victoria Posted 27/09/06 12:38 PM Author Share Posted 27/09/06 12:38 PM Hey Guys,Colour is Seduce, not many around yet... the only other Ford I've seen on the road in this colour was a new Territory Ghia.Why the ute? 1) I used to drive a corolla... I play bass guitar in a band.. I have 2 massive fender bass cabinets, amplifier head, 2 bass guitars and cramming all that into the corolla was becoming impractical, as well as causing damage to the trim.2) I am an engineer, and quite often I have to cart bulky items around town, and a ute would be themost practical.3) PERFORMANCE... for the $$$, an BF XR6T ute was such good value for money.4) 2 Seats... I'm not ready to settle down yet Finding a dealer in metro Melbourne who had an XR6T manual in stock to take for a test drive was a challenge, since the autos are so popular. Phoned around, and Bayford in Preston had a brand new one on the lot. Took it for a drive, then drove a hard bargain.Buying a car they had on the lot (was brand new, 8km on the clock before I took it for a test) allows for more bargaining, since the dealer was keen to shift it, and delivery on my terms.. had to wait only a couple of days before picking it up.I did the deal early Saturday evening, ending up haggling nearly an hour past closing time, and the sales guy and the manager were getting a bit restless (the sales guy's wife kept calling his mobile asking when he'd be home) So they were deperate to close the deal and go home, I wanted the car, and got it $8,000 less than the price we started off at. Stoked as with the deal, and the car!Brad Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/28664-just-got-my-ride/page/2/#findComment-441756 Share on other sites More sharing options...
