Sedan....so you are safe

Once again.....baaaaaaaaaaa Maybe the driver does not participate on this forum.

the buzzer would be going.....baaaaaaaaaaaa Incorrect. Suburb is neither of these.

You with the Lime Splice Turbo in a NSW Suburb with the initials CH. Beware....there is soon to be an HgAg Turbo coming. Identify yourself :banghead:

Hi alxr6t, Checked the build date while I was there...September. This falls within the 3 month build period as stipulated by the Fleet Company. Honest Gaza

As mentioned on a previous post, I had ordered an HgAg Turbo with Plexis Red Interior for a delivery date of early Nov. This order was placed in August because of the expected delay. I was amazed when the dealer rang me in mid-September and said "Your car is here" I went and viewed the car and found that the interior was Plexis Grey instead of Plexis Red. After many phone calls to the dealer and Fleet Company, the dealer said "No problem, we will re-order in the correct colour". They also assured me that the delivery date of early November was still achievable. I had reason to visit the dealer today to provide a copy of my licence for Rego purposes and I asked about the delivery date. Again they were extremely confident in the early November delivery date. I then asked when is it likely to turn up at the dealership and after a bit of prodding they advised "It is already here". Apparently this one was sourced from Queensland, and brought down to Sydney, NSW. What mystifies me even more is that the original HgAg in Plexis Grey is still sitting in the middle of the sales yard waiting for a buyer. So I ask the question....is there a waiting list or not ??? Anyone who wants an HgAg with Plexis Grey interior and Premium sound package ( without having to wait ), should get their dealer to contact Peter Warren at Warwick Farm, Sydney. It was there last time I looked. Honest Gaza

My Turbo doesn't arrive until November, so when I jumped in my mate's XR6 yesterday ( after reading this post ), I activated the feature while he wasn't looking. You should have seen him crap his pants when the display suddenly went dead. I let him stew for a while before I came clean. A mean trick to play....serves him right for not ordering the Turbo.

I am also confused as to the "waiting period" for the Turbo. Mine was ordered through a well known Fleet management Company ( who are absolutely pissing me off, and all my workmates, with their miserable service ). Although I sourced the "deal" myself, the order must still go through "them". The order was placed mid August for an early November delivery when my current Lease vehicle expires. Imagine my surprise when the dealer rang me last week and said "It's here, can you pick it up ?" I explained to the dealer, that I was unable to take delivery until Novemeber and they said they will hold it for me. ( I had my suspicions at the time that this was not my vehicle, but maybe a cancelled order ). I had to have my current car serviced on Friday, so while I was there, I had a quick squizzy at the TURBO. Wrong trim colour inside....like I said, maybe someone else's cancelled order ??? I explained to the dealer that it was the wrong trim colour and that I would contact "them" ( the well known Fleet Management Company ), and find out where I go from here. It seems that "they" ( the well known Fleet Management Company ), did not pass on my request for the trim colour when they ordered it through the dealer. Just when I though that I was in for one hell of a fight, the dealer rang me and said " No problem, we will re-order your vehicle, in the correct trim colour, and it should still be available for early November" ( More proof that this was maybe a cancelled order ??? Things that make you go hmmmmmm. Honest Gaza

Falchoon....you are the man !!! Firstly, can I say that you guys had me guessing for quite some time with the reference to "HgAg". It's been some time since my last Science class. I'm not as worried now that I have seen your photos Falchoon. If every piece of trim was in plexis red it might be overpowering, but your photos seem to show a sense of restraint from Ford. If the plexis red trim doesn't make the car go faster, I guess I will have to take the Turbo out of the boot and plug it in. Thanks for all of the comments. Honest Gaza

Hi folks, Does anyone have an XR6 Turbo with Plexis Red Trim ???. I have one on order for November delivery and the dealer rang me last week to say it was here. Scared the crap out of me as it was only ordered in August. I suspect it was someone else's car that later cancelled their order. It seemed to be ok except for the fact the the trim was Plexis Grey. I found the grey very boring. The car is Mercury Silver. The delaer is going to reorder in Plexis Red.....they assumed that I would want Plexis Grey as most customers find the red a bit "ghastly". Have I made a mistake ???? Honest Gaza
