But why I dont reckon they will put a 5 or 6 speed auto in the series 2 is because they have only just brought out the sss auto. Yeah it is logical to change the manual, but not sure about the sss.

I agree. I don't think we will see the six speed auto (jaguar??) untill the next model change. Ford must have spent a few dollars on upgrading the current auto to keep up with the power of the XR8 etc and also add SSS. They probably did this to remain competitive against the VZ dunnydore which I think is supposed to be getting a 5 speed auto with similar style SSS.

Itsn't the SSS auto just the old box with new shift programing? Oh and the shifter has changed.

Info please? Has the box changed that much from the one used in AU3?

After speaking with the salesman who sold me my car back in Oct 02, he told me there won't be a series 2...just minor changes until the all new Falcon comes out. They want to keep resale value up. Expensive Daewoo owners have been burn badly with the amount of times they change their cars. The salesman also told me Expensive Daewoo are bringing out the VZ in April.

About the 5 speed auto....not true....it's a 6 speed because I have seen it and been in a XR6T test car with it.

Cheers,

You have seen the 6pd auto!

Any specs / details? When is it due?

Does anyone think the Territory will have BA2 running gear??

There will be a series 2, and that's when FPV

will release there Xr6T.

THere could be 50-100kgs of weight

loss, that's about all the car could drop.

The new gearbox ( 6 speed auto ) is a BIG possibility

as it was designed for Ford Global use!

So that's where weight savings can and will be

made.

Ford are Still behind in sales to the dunnydore

so they still need to upgrade and develope

the Ba series.

Im still waiting to buy as Im still reading about problems

the 6T is still having.

Then I'll weigh up whether a

FPV 6T of an Sti or Evo 8 will be in my Garage!
