The T-Series range was introduced by Tickford in 1999. It was the first REAL performance Ford V8 for many a year. It was always called the "T". It's just that the AU had/has so few followers that it has never been as "known" as the "T" for Turbo. However the "true T" in Ford parlance goes back quite a few years. Like mine, it also came in black! What colour is yours? IMO, if it ain't black it ain't a "T". Ivan, I have no plans for the redundant driving lights. They are just siting in the shed as of two days ago collecting dust like all the others in there LOL.Jeff, learnt it from a master mate ... YOU! PS. Oh yeah, the gold wheels - that's another story. Wanna hear it LOL?

If you whiny 6 potters can skip ex are six (6 letters) then so can T3 owners

Isn't it Mr Moderator? ←See, even you have learned something from this site? Well actually I will concede the Typhoon is the best performance car about at the moment, at least as far as the Ford stable is concerned.But I DID say "V8" and so I think that still stands as I have yet to find an unmodified BA or BF V8 that will outperform a T3.
