My hard drive is chocka with photos from Tony C. at Tickford. There's no way Holden/HSV would go to this trouble for one of their customers.

How do you guys like this photo?

What a great shot.

Looks real nice

It is something else to get hold of shots like that, goes a long long way.

Thats mighty purrrrrty... It's a wonder the grass is in such good nick! After a photo shoot like that I'd be all like Big Kev, and probably do a spot of gardening on the lawn

Pharrkk!! That's a brilliant photo ay!! I'd like to see HSV to something like this for their customers.. and it's "only" an XR. Imagine the service you'll get if you buy a T-Series!!!

Tickford Rocks!!!

People make the organisation and Tickford indeed rocks because everyone there is buzzing along. There's some great people at HSV too, but I've never seen a company (Ford included) rejuvenate themselves in such a way. Tony Chesterman at Tickford is responsible for all this - a pressie will be dispatched!

Those pics are great Pete! Post them on ls1.com, and ask 'Would HSV do this for you???'

XR8 pic.

How do you know that is YOUR car and not a happy snap they send to everyone who has one on the production line ?

Just a thought not bagging the effort and applaud it if it is legit Looks ok for a fraud too

It the real deal mate!

There are other threads that show the different stages of build coming down the line. It is something Tickford started with the T series and now continued on to the XRs.

How does Pete know it is the real thing? Well he has spent enought time at Tickford to know if it doesn't smell right

Free BJs for a lifetime. Now, now, don't rush.

To add to what HSE2 has said, the sticker on LHS of windscreen is slightly ripped and it matches exactly the subsequent photos I took of the car.
I have photos of the car throughout Tickford however there is heaps of them and they would almost fill this server

No thanks.. I like mine to sound like a V8, not a vaccum cleaner..
Please read my post in the "How Sad" thread in the pub Fraud I want 1..
