spooner Member 84 Member For: 16y 9m Posted 10/08/08 01:16 AM Share Posted 10/08/08 01:16 AM (edited) I junked /traded my 05 BA MkII XR8 Ute , for the FG6T ute.I still got my 04 VY SS II as the family car, at least it drives nice, handles well and sounds like a V8 . Sure its a Holden , but at least it wants to Stick to the Road like Glue , unlike my Pig Dog handling XR8. Hopefully the FGT will make up for the Dissapointment of the BA8 , I hope , nearly bought a VE SS , nearly , so close yet couldnt bring myself to do it .I hope I made the right choice . Besides the Mrs and teenage kids are all Expensive Daewoo Boguns, so I had to fly the Ford Flag in our family as a matter of Pride Edited 10/08/08 01:23 AM by spooner Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/363-upgraded-to-xr6t-from/page/14/#findComment-716605 Share on other sites More sharing options...

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 4m 19d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 10/08/08 03:32 PM Share Posted 10/08/08 03:32 PM 87 NA6 XF Fairmont - given to me by my cousin (cheers!).That started to go (radiator leak bigtime on the freeway, not fun) so took the chance to get a smash damaged EAII 3.9 MPFI (much nicer) which I repaired with dad...nicer car by far even though it's only 3 years newer than the old XF! Air-con, hurrah While we were fixing this up I drove a mate's Saab 900, like a 1990 model. OMG I felt like such a tard being seen in that Reallllly wanted an FG but maybe next time - should have an 07 BFMkII in Lightning strike early this week (for half the price!). Stoked! And I've only driven a 6T once - at the test drive last thursday...a ride in a BA 5 or so years ago convinced me I wanted one and finally I've made the leap. See you at the cruises!

Broaders77 Member 73 Member For: 16y 8m 23d Posted 11/08/08 05:32 AM Share Posted 11/08/08 05:32 AM Moved from a 1998 Audi A4 turbo Quattro to a '05 XR6T auto. Loving the extra power but still getting used to the lack of AWD and the extra mass!
