XR6TLuvr Member 20 Member For: 14y 11m 24d Posted 06/05/10 05:28 AM Share Posted 06/05/10 05:28 AM Going to buy a T in about 6 months when I get off my p's and raise enough funds. BF will be out of price range so what is the difference between a Ba series 1 and series 2? Is it worth looking around for a series 2 and paying that little bit extra?Thanks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/67947-ba-mk1-and-mk11-difference/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

XR6TLuvr Member 20 Member For: 14y 11m 24d Posted 06/05/10 06:13 AM Author Share Posted 06/05/10 06:13 AM (edited) Thanks , is there known problems for the ba series 1? just did a search on carsales and one BA close to me to going for 12k I think its a series 1 to. So cheap if you can get them in and around that and 15k then have 5k to spend on mods.
