Iconic Bionic My engine bay is Bionic Donating Members 3,726 Member For: 18y 11m 6d Gender: Male Location: Freeways Posted 27/11/06 10:36 AM Share Posted 27/11/06 10:36 AM The Ford website has been changed and updated with the BFII but there are no XR's on the website. They were there 2 days ago when I last looked. What genius decied to leave the sports performance cars off. I think more ppl look for the XR's than the XT's.I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the fact that the BFII XR's dont get the new front end. The base XT and other models do. I spose it would look stupid that there sports cars dont get the new designed European look. After all whats the difference between BFI and BFII XR's? well its nothing to do with the shape, or wheels or engine or transmission, all BFII gets is a grey background dash and of course the MKII badge.Ford have outdone themselves. I got a BFI and I may as well stick a MKII badge on it. Its not as if anyone wil notice.My winge for this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 27/11/06 11:12 AM Share Posted 27/11/06 11:12 AM Oh - the BF2 is a truly beautiful thing.... LOL. I bought one because of the hugely refreshed um er gosh um ah.... let me think........ different colour.1/ The ford site - yep, the T is gone from the highlights area, but it's still there - buried deep under about 5 menu levels... go figure.2/ Have had my BF2 for about 6 weeks, and received an automated mail today from Ford telling me about wonderful deals on the new BF2. (I might buy another one) (novel that they don't marry up databases for purchasers and email recipients on the automated system.... shows how much I'm worth as a customer)3/ Now the novel bit - even though no-one from the dealership has let me know yet, apparently the BF2 comes with free scheduled servicing - as per the Ford email - up to and including the 60,000K service. Wow - nice deal. Glad they sent me the mail to let me know.... as I've now forwarded it to the dealer for confirmation. I'll bet they'll be thrilled. "There’s another common thread to our range. For any new or demonstrator BF Falcon MkII purchased before 31, January 2007, we’re offering 3 years/60,000km free Scheduled Servicing plus a 2 year/100,000km Extended New Vehicle Warranty. Redemption code 2066021. "More soon..... I'm considering the ramifications of the Ford Servicing thing again..... eek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why pay through the nose to get an apprentice to practice on your car, when you can go to someone you know and trust for half the money.I have even gone one step further, getting my mechanic to identify what needs to be fixed under warranty. It means less stuffing around with the Ford monkeys trying to avoid... er... I mean find the problem to fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
