Today Tonight - Tues 14th, "Buying a Lemon" - Ford Forums - Mustang Forum, Ford Trucks, Ford Focus and Ford Cars

FPRXR-6 · 01-13-2003, 07:44

On TT they will be talking about buying lemon cars.

There's one guy that has a GTS VT/VX i think which has had 3 engine rebuilds and a guy with a XR6/8 ute but didn't say what probs it had.

If i bought a $95,000 GTS car and had 3 engine builds i would cry and sue Holden in the process.

It'll be interesting to watch....

I'm working tonight so I won't see it and no one is at home to record it do you think you could tell me what goes on? TT is normally a load of crap but if they bag the holdens I want to know about it.
Obviously if they bag the Fords I want to know about it as well so I can cry about how much the media beat on Fords.
Cheers!

F.Y.I, the Falcon ute was an AU with the Gas engine, it had the green rocker cover...
Major complaint was regarding the LPG system cutting out halfway through intersections....

Bloke with the HSV had MANY more problems.....

Uh oh, just what holden didnt want to get onto the news, if only it was brought out just how common the problem is. Oh well, what a shame, not.
