Sports... Power, and lots of storage room (that's under cover). Ideal for people who have to cart a lot of stuff around.. from golf clubs to DJing equipment to computers.My ex wanted a V8 wagon. He was trying to find something sporty, and manual. but the only option ford gave him was the luxo barge auto fairmont. I gave him my old T5 when I put a T56 in my car, he was going to do the conversion... but I dont think he realised how badly I killed the T5 (bent input shaft, and chewed out gears). So .... he is still stuck with an auto at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falchoon I see red Member 5,758 Member For: 22y 1m 4d Location: nowhere in particular Posted 19/05/03 12:34 AM Share Posted 19/05/03 12:34 AM I think Ford should have an XR wagon. OK the engineering costs for such a low volume seller might be prohibitive to do XR6T and XR8 (GT-P wagon anyone?!) but what about a n/a XR6 wagon. There'd be SFA "engineering" to be done except for maybe tooling up a different rear skirt. Expensive Daewoo have a much larger potential target market as you would all know because they export.

Superoo Member 340 Member For: 22y 2m 20d Gender: Male Posted 19/05/03 01:12 AM Share Posted 19/05/03 01:12 AM Since Ford announced the wagon line-up for the BA, Expensive Daewoo knew they had an advantage as far as what they could offer at the upper end so it's no surprise they are trying to push that advantage further.I'm surprised by the lack of colours in the range and not sure how people in general will take to the image of an SS in wagon form. My guess is that resale on these things may not stack up against the sedan. 50K+ is an expensive wagon so they'll need those family types who just have to have a V8 and make use of wagons to be cashed up. Personally, I still feel the back end of the VY wagon, dated as it may be now, is still the better looking when compared to the BA wagon. Hope for Holden's sake, and those rear tyres, that the control link suspension "fix" for the rear camber problem is well and sorted. My VT wagon got 80K out of a set of tyres. Then, on the new set, had it loaded up for a trip to Canberra and Sydney. Let's just say that after 2000 odd kays, I'm glad I didn't have to fork out the money for the next set (lease finished).
