Thanx for all the comments guys, it sure gives me a start. I won't be trading for the exact reasons you mentioned. These replies give me a good basis for price hunting. That link from Flukey looks good, and cooltint I will give Southside Ford a call. I did try Ocean Ford at Noosa but they were talking $61k mark and there was only $500 difference for a demo. They do have a nice Force 6 demo though for low $50ks. Does the Typhoon come standard with Premium sound or is that an extra as it was with the XR6T?

I am looking to upgrade from my XR6T to a Typhoon. As I have only just started I am looking for advice on how much I should be paying. What's the best offer around at the moment, if any? What did you guys manage to get one for. Can be a demo or new. Late 2006 or 2007, 6 Speed Auto. Other than that as it comes. as it has pretty much everything, any extras would be a bonus. Any info would be appreciated before I tackle the dealers. Thanks in advance

This was the article about the motor home park on the V8 site motor homes It basically sends you back to where I sent you before so not much more help

I know it isn't the biggest help but this is all I could find. Camping Good luck and if you find anything else out be sure to post it here

Me too!! shazzy <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mine plays CDRWs however sometimes it jumps around a bit, probably the way it was burnt (when you are in a hurry) when it is done properly I have no worries playing them.

I am also looking at bringing one over.....but I want to do mine as a project car......about A$10k for a 1966 Fastback ready to be retored. The new 2006 model is not a bad looking replica

I was lucky enough to jag the trifecta......paid out a nice $7416

On the local news last night they referred to Courtney being from the Sunny Coast, anyone know if this is true, Chris Vermulen has done alright for a Coast boy, be good to see another up and coming talent from this area.

Doesn't look too bad, thought they might have used different wheels though something like 888 are trying to set it apart from all the others. From the side it looks a little like the Westpoint Falcons apart from the colour of the wheels.

Goldie, that's spot on I spoke to 888 and it is basically their fan day

I answered my own question by looking in the latest V8x magazine, it is at QLD Raceway but the date is 4th December not 6th November as mentioned in the first post unless that is some other event.

Where is the All Ford day, I was told it was at Qld Raceway, but the first post mentions Kedron. Can anyone confirm the location

looks like when they tried to tow it out they ripped the back end off it

My XR6T lost a bolt a couple of weeks back, made it sound like an old XF falcon exhaust. Ford replaced it and tightened the others. Service manager made the point of telling me they can't just buy the spare bolts, he had to requisition an entire new turbo and remove a bolt to replace the one lost by my car

I have had my XR6T up to 99L/100 but figured that it only had the room for double digits so haven't tried any more.

what were the symptoms of your problem, mine is currently lacking in the power department after the last reflash but dealer assures me all is fine, wondering if perhaps my cat needs replacing.

They are bloody hard to get out, save yourself the trouble and get your dealer to do it. The cost of replacing bulbs is covered in the warranty up to 100,000km.

I am also looking at the CAPA edit and after reading up on it everyone talks about the potential power gains, noone has mentioned anything about fuel economy. CAPA mention in their ads that it is possible to gain some fuel efficiency, has anyone noticed their fuel consumption change, either up or down since having the edit? Thanks in advance

Any updates on the streaming for this weekends race meet?
