I knew from the first moment they announced the BA XR6T it would gain a cult following, and would be the ideal car for me...BIG 6 Turbo with heaps of power and even more potential. I was content to keep updating, and riding the evolutionary wave of new models...because the cars basic characteristics really appealed to me. It really suited the way I drive...that effortless torque and acceleration... I really see no replacement or substitute for the T...which is very sad indeed Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85030-the-end-of-ford-aus/page/14/#findComment-1392969 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was informed that they might sell Ford Mustangs in Aust for around $38.000 prob the basic model to keep us rear wheel dive people in the market.

tab Sucker Moderating Team 32,303 Member For: 20y 11m 23d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 28/05/13 10:16 AM Author Share Posted 28/05/13 10:16 AM No wonder it's turned to sh*t, the enterprise agreement that Ford employees work under is out of this world. I really do feel sorry for anyone that will lose their job because they will find it very hard to adjust to reality. The redundancy payment is four weeks, plus four weeks for each year of service up to a maximum of 90, plus an additional weeks pay for each year of service if it's because of factory closure that is uncapped, plus unused long service and annual leave (which is normal), plus unused sick leave. So as bad as this news is, everyone has still got a job for over 3 years and a lot will be walking away with over two years pay on top as well. That is just fckn amazing. Thanks unions - you're awesome. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85030-the-end-of-ford-aus/page/14/#findComment-1393413 Share on other sites More sharing options...
