Ultimately, it'll probably come down to how they price it and how it looks. All the extra gadgets I really don't give a futz about. My 2009 F6 is equipped enough for me. Bluetooth, reverse sensors and an iPod jack. Perfect.

I would assume the new Golf R will be out either close to the XR8 or slightly before. If they're around the same price, my dream of owning a supercharged V8 as a young boy probably won't come to fruition. A decision between a quick car that leaves my garage bulging at the seams compared to as quick a car that gives me ~1m of extra space and half the fuel usage..

I'm trying to buy one more Falcon, Ford. Please go out with a bang and you'll have a sale here.

Hey,

I've seen it or one that looks like it, if the current GS is too your liking then it will be all down to the dollars

all that grunt and change(GTS)

I know but they haven't released any info on that vehicle yet especially the diesel side of things, and to be honest it will be going up against the likes of the Toyota Prado and I am a big fan of the Prado so it would want to be as good.
Time is of the essence for me right now though.

[spyman03]

Hey,

Everest is anyone's guest atm the mules with two halves are starting to look good too me atm

since the escort Gamma2 cars have started testing here I think they have switched gears to that,

or they only had the job to do the watts linkage part ;-)

BA to BF?

Yeah the only cosmetic change BA-BF was the front bumper and wheel covers.

All the big changes were under the skin.

EB-ED didn't bring any interior changes either but then again you could probably call the ED an EB Series 3.

EF-EL didn't either apart from the gauge cluster I think and a few minor trim items.

[spyman03]

Touch screen is very likely.

I think I remember reading you post about the centre vents having their own fan power adjustment on the vent itself? Did I mis-read?

hey,

that was my pig English regarding the update audi tt with the temp/fan speed buttons in the vent not on the control panel like our cars.

and as for the white marks my silly humor, I was hiding some info from Ford re this/that car.
