Default Win The Ultimate Ford Experience
To celebrate the 50th birthday of Australia's much-loved Ford Falcon, Ford is offering Australians a once-in-a-lifetime, money-can't-buy opportunity to win the Ultimate Ford Experience.

50 lucky winners will have the chance for the ultimate behind the scenes experience at one of Australia's longest-running vehicle manufacturer and car nameplate.

The 50 successful entrants of the Ultimate Ford Experience will become part of Ford’s history by being granted exclusive VIP access to:

  • A never-seen-before tour of the Ford Design Studio, plus a guided tour of the Broadmeadows assembly plant
  • Private lunch with Ford racing legends Dick Johnson and Allan Moffatt, along with Ford Australia President, Marin Burela
  • A tour of Ford Australia’s highly secret Proving Ground in the You Yangs, Lara - including a whizz around the track with Ford's test drivers
  • A tour of the Ford plant in Geelong, the first permanent Ford factory in Australia
How can Falcon fanatics win this experience? It’s simple- to enter, Ford Australia is calling on Aussies to share their best Falcon memory by heading to Facebook and ’liking’ the ‘Falcon turns 50’ fan page www.facebook.com/FalconTurns50. We want to hear your best Falcon memory by submitting:

  • Answers to five questions on the history of Australia's favourite car, the Ford Falcon
  • A photo of your best Ford Falcon memory
  • A caption in 50-100 words describing your best Ford Falcon memory
Ford is looking for Australia’s great Falcon stories. From exciting restoration jobs to ultimate road trips, everyone has a great Falcon story and Ford wants to hear them all!

Ford Falcon fanatics can also view other entries on the ‘Falcon Turns 50’ Facebook fan page and invite their mates to become a fan of the page too.

The competition opens on June 9, 2010 and closes on July 9, 2010 at 4pm.

The lucky winners will be announced on the ‘Falcon Turns 50’ Facebook page on July 14, 2010.

I think I would do anything to win this. The closest I've ever got to the proving grounds is when the GPS told us to drive through it :p

Of course i might be a little disappointed and upset.
