They did for me wiping about 2 months off the greulling wait.NOT DISAPOINTED :D :D :D Edited 25/06/03 03:55 AM by richdave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Craig Guests Posted 25/06/03 04:32 AM Share Posted 25/06/03 04:32 AM Welcome Mate I didn't test drive until I had ordered either.There's no denying it - after driving the T, XR8, SS, CV8 there is no comparison - The T is faster, stronger and better attuned to the road than all of them (except the T for obvious reasons ).Sure if you don't want a permanent grin spread across your face don't get the T but if you do - then do like us and get the beast - she won't dissapoint you!Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlackMagic Guests Posted 25/06/03 04:58 AM Share Posted 25/06/03 04:58 AM Hi All,I too, have been 'listening in' to this forum for a couple of months and finally I have taken the plunge and taken stock of my XR6T just last week (after 3 months for delivery) so just like timbo I'd also make it official. I have been mainly been into the Jap & Expensive Daewoo cars in the past but am full on spinning out on how fantastic my new XR6T is!! I was a bit skeptical at first and I too bought the car without test driving it (only an XR6 std). But thanks to all your posts and all the other good topics, I've never looked back! So don't worry about it timbo, you won't be disappointed, trust me it is worth the wait.... :D ps. Anyone have any feedback regarding Turbo Timers for the XR6T? Is it needed and if so, does anyone recommend any? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueXR6Turbo The Best Member Donating Members 1,970 Member For: 22y 9d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 25/06/03 12:33 PM Share Posted 25/06/03 12:33 PM I too ordered my XR6T without taking one for a test drive. First time I drove a Turbo was when I drove mine out of the dealership. They didn't even have a N/A XR6 for me to test drive, I only got to test drive an XT. Being a Ford person my whole life and having read all the reviews and seeing all the pictures of the BA's, I just knew that I had to have one. Short of the XT breaking down, falling apart or something similar, I don't think anything could have put me off the Turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
