Xr Wagon, Mmmmmmm Yum

[Goose]

Evening all, on my way to work this morning I drove past what I thought was a Mercury Silver BA falcon wagon, didn't think anything too much of it untill I was about 10 car lenghts in front of him, looked back, and a full XR front end.

I may be completely mistaken, it "may" have been a sedan, but I think as I went past it, it was a wagon.

Can anyone confirm a Merc Silver XR Wagon up here in brissy? Any dealers delivered a wagon with an XR front end anywhere around australia. I've always had a soft spot for wagons, would love to see any pics if anyone has some.

Cheers

Well I certainly hope you did see one,and that it was a genuine BA XR6.

Ford needs another in the XR line and a wagon would do the big families just nice. GMH can see the logic. Why did Ford drop the Xr wagon? :D

The dealer up the road used to fit XR fronts to get rid of the old excess stock from the AU series.Made the wagon look acceptable.I would assume they are probley doing the same thing to the BA.

Ford really need to update there wagon soon as in my opinion they look bl--dy dreadfull.The rear is all out of proportion and sits to high plus still riding on leaf springs.You are right concerning there is a market for a T wagon that is lowered with the front end and 18s.

I think the Wagons days are near an end.

The Territory is what Fords R&D has gone into as a replacement for both the Wagon as well as a new market segment as well

If there was a xr6 T wagon, I would have bought it. Bench front seats, columb shift auto and paint it burnt orange.....
