Fpv - Ford Thievin` Bastards

[jrfttf]

I tried an FPV dealer in Vic, I forget their name but they got shops in Frankston and all over.. The parts guy was a legend and searched around and found a front bar complete in Rockhampton, I got pretty excited and rang them, no deal it`d been sold and not taken off the listings.. lol guy was pretty freaked out when I said: you got a Tyhoon bar there, sell it too me!!!

that bloke in frankston u spoke to is a good bloke!

I know exactly who ya talking bout!

I'm on my second FPV. Would I buy another, hell yeah.

As annoying as this sht is ( I would be going berserk by now) I have no expectations

from Fraud or FPV once I take delivery. I have learnt this from dealings and being disappointed

by more dealers than this post permits.

As my Mum always told me" expect nothing and you will never be disappointed"

That's unfortunate for the brands of Ford and FPV. Not everyone will accept that

His name was John. Top guy..

Buffy I agree. I`m as sour as a cut snake but in my spare moments at work I was ogling the sneak pics of the GTHO 351 FPV jobbie.

I got FPV merchandise all over the shop here.

Maybe they know I`d skol a gallon of rat piss before I bought another Holden.

I'm with you spin fark the fraking ...isn't it law that they produce parts for a car for up to 3- 5 years of manufacture....whats the bet if I tried to make them before the 3-5 years ford would try and crush me...5 months what a joke.....

Its 10 years AFAIK.

Oh and Ford bars are made locally, pretty sure FPV are too. The 6 people who still work for FPV are farking you around massively. ACCC it up.

Did I mention I actually work for Ford? lol

lol. last time I rang my assessor, it was late in the afternoon and think he was on his third or fourth Chvias Regal, we ended up yacking about Triumphs for 45 mins..

He`s been a big help, but its out of his hands.

After 4 months... Sure I was pissed orf today, but now? Man I`m used to it now. I know better than to count on the ETA that I`ve been given..

Its just the missed call on friday from FPV, over the weekend I thought this could be it! Or, it could be another put off..

It was the latter.

Christ, that's stiff. I had to wait a few weeks for my front bar and panels when I had a prang last year and I thought that was bad. Got told they come from china (plain XR6T) and the next shipment wasn't in yet, and NONE in stock in oz. Nice.

Good luck mate, hope it gets sorted before you go crazy and steal someone elses bar! Seems to be heading that way

isnt there like a joint that sells bars etc just all ford gear. instead of goin thru ford. I know a mate that has a 98 hsv clubby n got a front bar thru Expensive Daewoo within a week.

I know there is holmart for holden /hsv all genuine gear n always got stock.

I'd like to see the reaction of a ford/fpv manager reading this. It's rediculous that they could potentially put off a future sale for something so stupid. You've forked out for an FPV before - you are their target audience and you've proven it with cash, all they need to do to make another sale later is to keep making decent cars and not piss you off. It's pretty simple stuff.

Get straight onto Customer service mate. That should put the cat amongst the pigeons. and I say should because sometimes they can take their diddly time too
