CBXRT Banned 643 Member For: 14y 18d Gender: Male Posted 25/08/11 11:43 AM Share Posted 25/08/11 11:43 AM (edited) Does the fact the shape is identical and cheapened by the thousands of taxis and rental cars in povo XR6 form count as a fault? If you want something that gets attention on the road do not buy an FG-T - but they are a very good car and there are excellent deals out there Edited 25/08/11 11:48 AM by CBXRT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the fact that there's still thousands of BA/BF taxis getting around make any difference to your myopia?Another thing to add to your list was faulty fuel level senders, rectified early on though.
