HUSTLER Member 663 Member For: 21y 6m 4d Location: Broken Hill Posted 21/05/08 06:58 AM Share Posted 21/05/08 06:58 AM (edited) Dealer recons its gotta be a supply issue, to have a confirmed build date, and now back to DSC Status, has to be a supply issue. Who knows. It very obvious now 3 weeks on from the FG release and still no turbos, there obviously IS an issue!!!

HUSTLER Member 663 Member For: 21y 6m 4d Location: Broken Hill Posted 23/05/08 05:53 AM Share Posted 23/05/08 05:53 AM Dealer just rang me again. He said he just spoke to the "Highest of high" at ford, because they wanted to know what was going on. Quote " I Gaurentee All April and May ordered Turbos will be filled by the End of June, they are still doing vigorous testing to make sure there are absolutely no problems, we dont want a repeat like the BA" Unquote. That said, my new delivery date is 7th July.What have you been told Senna?? no Turbos till july?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YUCK!!!Anyways, there are a few at Alto Service as I mentioned...Asked about getting hooked up with FPV oval badges, at this stage not listed as a spare... and they dont think it will be... We will see about that I guess in time...(mind u he didnt check just said it wasnt)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very noice, but I'm not sure about the racoon eyes (Ego will take car of that though), and I can't beleive they don't come standard with leather after the $5k price hike.
