there were fewer built and most Bs are hitting the time where expensive repairs happen. A gearbox fails and the cost is the majority value of the car, easier to scrap and buy another. We're gonna hit a balance point where newer Mustangs become more common on the road than FGX Falcon |

It's getting a bit harder to find "good bits" at the wreckers for BA/BF now, too (I reckon)... Of the cars that do end up there, it seems to be more of the base model/low series cars, and they seem to be more of the old/worn out variety (rather than the crashed, previosly well looked after cars).
On the flip side... plenty of the better/higher series BA/BFs might have moved into the "keeper" category... so could be locked away in sheds.. so perhaps unregistered, but still viable !?? 12 - 18yrs old now... so getting up there... D

As for the BA and BF, there was a point where well over 90% of taxis in Victoria were BA/BF Falcons. And there were about 5,000 taxis in Victoria in those days (more now). As there was a 6.5 year limit at the time, that means that about 700 Falcon taxis were scrapped and replaced each year, and that's just VIC... |

how many years will you give it till ea-ed have dissapeared, you often wonder how many are parked in sheds and used for shows.
guessing the ea-ed will be the new xy-xc where most are parked and only used for car shows and taken out on weekends and the ef-au are the new ea-ed where you can still get a good cheap car and the ba-fg are the new au-ba where you can get a really nice sheap car. would that sound about right. most of the xw-xf narly every car show have seen never ending amounts and wondered wether ea-ed and na-nc will end up the same as the xw-xf where most if not all are parked and only used for car shows |

Crazy how rare the FGX is already, yet alone will be, it's on the shopping list for sure!

You can add another AU to the list of old Falcons no longer registered.
Has been a trusty family wagon for 14 years, made a visit to the Geelong factory on its last roadtrip, will be missed. |

![]() Case in point that you need to design and release something shortly after a car hits the showroom rather than when you start receiving demand. Lost sales is a lag measure, if you act on lost sales you end up missing the opportunity and carrying excess stock. |

I was working my way through the Territory numbers. Feeling somewhat despondent at the dwindling numbers of this amazing vehicle. Most of the ones I see on the road these days are delegated the role of family hack. I suspect that most are not getting the basic maintenance they deserve. I also checked out a few on carsales. Somewhat surprised how well the price is holding up in the current market. Anyway, I kept reading down the list and saw the F250. I am amazed there are this many still kicking around. I hardly see any these days. Prices seems through the roof. Unless one absolutely needed to tow something really big, I would have though the money would have gone to a newer tow rig. Quote:
Anyway, thanks for going to the effort of digging it out. |

Great work of plotting the numbers into the graph, thanks Ford17.
It shows that in just over 2 years, there has been about 35.000 Falcon BA lost, and almost 40.000 of the older AU model gone. Anyway a few of these cars may possibly have been stowed away for future barn finds, who knows. Franco, you should convert your product to fit the new Ranger ;-) Cheers, |

Price has held up as it's cheapish and a really good 'starting a family' wagon? There's demand, babies and toddlers everywhere round these parts.
