Default Re: I drove a VFII SS-V Redline

Bil bought one of the last LS3 SS wagons a few months ago, it goes pretty good, although I didn't like the rear end handling that much.
He flew up to Cairns and was picked up by the dealer, driven to Athaton to collect the car.
He drove it down to Emerald, the Longreach, Barcaldine, Charleville, then in on the Warrego to Dalby and up to Yarraman.
The big surprise for him was the fuel economy. It went really well, at cruise. He doesn't lay the boot in very hard, so I haven't had it at wot yet.
Every couple of weeks he blows the spiders off it and has a drive.

While the basic Ford Six was code named Barra, the Turbo version clearly deserved its very own moniker – again enter Gordon Barfield.
We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about.
“Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”.
