Makes no difference. I can't see you buying a ZB Commodore no matter what warranty they had on it. Nor a current Ford for that matter

I think Mitsi offer 7 years on Rust - push the dealer for their terms on rust

You are correct. I have all the fords I need and a VF V8

Warranty means very little to me as I heavily modify all my cars within weeks of owning them

But for the average guy a seven year warranty is awesome. By that length of time most people change cars anyrate.

If it's a used car or ex Ford Aust car, it isn't.

I believe the balance of the 5 year warranty will also apply to the dealers loan cars.

Not that I think its a good idea buying a loaner.
