New Car

well...I sold me rolla.....and got a VL.....lol...

but I am still a ford man....but I think you have to try the competition to see what there like, I was looking for a EB but I found a VL that was in really good nik and only had 170000k's on it with 12 months rego for $2600....

So far it’s been good, I just drove it to Newcastle and had no probs.....but while I have been here the blinker stalk has come out of the column some how so I have to get that fixed....

But my next car will be a Ford for sure....probably an EL

Cheers



Sipheren

Re: New Car



JJ, drive what ya want, sometimes this whole 'Ford vs. Holden' thing gets a little outta hand. If it's a good pickup, you've done well.

Just dont put f**king chromies and gauges and stickers all over it for cryin out loud!

Re: New Car

Well I'm Sipheren07's best mate and I bought an EBII a few weeks before he got that - and the funny thing is that I'm a diehard Holden man - but I am loving every minute of it....

Exactly, I've owned just about every make as I've always bought what suited me at the time.

Just happens that the last three cars have been Falcons but if you can get a bargin take it.
