Hi All
Two more of my cars that was taken for a drive the last couple of weeks. The Falcon is a XR6 with the limited edition Tickford wheels that only came with the XR8's (I know of 5 that came in from Aus). It has a performance exhaust and K&N filter otherwise standard. The Escort is a one owner car with 85k on the clock. None of the mehanics have ever been opened and it has never been in an accident. Orriginal enterior, boot carpet and orriginal owners manual and service booklet. Will post pictures of the other cars at a later stage.

Hi All
Just a photo or two of the nwest addition to the FPT clan (my dad's ZD Fairlane) The car is in mint condition, one owner 78k km on. He bought it out of the orriginal owners estate. We fitted the XR6 wheels but the orriginal wheels and wheelcaps are kept in a save place.

Hi All
Will do so Tiaan.
ZAP the XR6 is a great car in my opinion! I've had mine for 5 years now and use it mainly for long trips. Have not had any trouble with it whatsoever. Fuel consuption are arround 11km/l at 120km/h and drop to 9.5 at 160km/h on the road. If you can get a good example you won't make a mistake!

Boxy
It's a Fairmont mirror (actually I took it of a Ranchero but the same thing). It actually works nice on the Escort with the remote still in tact. If it wasn't a daily driver I would import a left one aswell, but that would cost almost as much as what the car cost me! :lol:
