Member 706 Member For: 19y 2m 14d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 11/07/07 10:47 AM Posted 11/07/07 10:47 AM (edited) Hi Andy,I was actuallly going through the same thought process all but 3 weeks ago... luckily the missus released the extra funds and the T come up at perfect timing.I have 2 young kids so I was about to pick the Futura, benefits are rear power windows, rear lights, rear cup holders and centre pulldown armrest, alloys and some have rear parking sensors. BAII also has side airbags. Hope this helpsOzzie Edited 11/07/07 10:48 AM by mytxr6
HugeRambo Member 8 Member For: 19y 5m 24d Location: Darwin Posted 13/07/07 07:40 AM Author Posted 13/07/07 07:40 AM ok I have agreed to buy the XT after another drive of it and more looking around.on thing though is I cannot pick up the car until the rear seat is repaired as it has separated along the seam between the left side rear seat and the middle part of the rear on the bottom (ass side )is this a common occurrence? I have seen this on 3 other BA falcons I have looked at. its getting repaired at the car dealer's expense, but just wondering how prone it is to happening again.
