I know i shouldnt have but i went and had a look at the dark side's :hiwelcome: web site.. and saw the amount of merchandise that is available and the price of it is far better value then Ford's.Speaking to the Discovery Centre some new stuff is on its way though including XR6 Turbo hat's and a few other things. I just hope that Ford gets their act together and releases some good quality stuff for their fans..

Guest HOTXR6 Guests Posted 12/01/03 09:37 PM Posted 12/01/03 09:37 PM What you get with Ford in terms of merchandise if very poor. As you say, the Dark side have a far better range. I think a lot can be attributed to the Holden, oh did I say that word! dominance over the last few years. Things are a changing and I can see Ford getting their act together.HOTXR6

At the Motorshow I bought all the FPV stuff and I love it. All the Gibson Motorsport, and 00 Motorsport stuff is really nice too.
