I'm really enjoying driving the manual again and too be honest I'm dragging my feet on putting the ba up for sale as I don't reeeeeeally want to let it go. Everyone has a budget to work to and I think for 10k Jamo's onto a good thing, and like I said on the email I hope to see you out on a cruise sometime. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94828-which-xr6t-to-buy-merged-topic/page/55/#findComment-1475388 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it for a test drive and it drove smoothly with no unwanted sounds, no turning problems or anything really. the interior is in good nick as well, nothing peeling and no stains. the guy selling is a family man and basically everything so far seems pretty good, is $8k a fair price? any opinions on the LPG injection?cheers Edited 31/05/14 11:07 AM by hughmad Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94828-which-xr6t-to-buy-merged-topic/page/55/#findComment-1475461 Share on other sites More sharing options...

eseriesaddict Member 27 Member For: 10y 10m 16d Posted 02/06/14 10:04 AM Share Posted 02/06/14 10:04 AM HAHA the ol' T5's aren't that bad, if you rebuild em right!! But yeah they really enjoy excessive power much that's for sure. Definitely wasn't going for the 4 speed, would have held out for a ZF Box IF I had to go auto, but yea the T56 was always the preferred option ... 24 hours to wait!Jamo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94828-which-xr6t-to-buy-merged-topic/page/55/#findComment-1475837 Share on other sites More sharing options...
