Nice forum you have going here. plenty of good info.Im looking at selling my 5th Expensive Daewoo and moving to my first Ford. (almost hurts saying that).Im selling my SS as I need something that will tow my boat better, and the only car that fits in my power/towing/price range is the TT.Looking at a 2007 Territory Turbo Ghia AWD, I have done a fair bit of reading on them and have heard mixed reports which makes me hesitant a bit. I realise with a car that is produced in soo many numbers there is always going to be problems, But I've had a few mechanics tell me to steer clear of them after 100K?Just thought id go straight to the source and your opinions on that year model Territory? The areas of concern ive heard about have been front diff/ the diff bushes/ suspension/ ball joints/ turbos.Dont wanna make the move from Expensive Daewoo to Ford and get bitten the ass .Any help appreciated, Bring on the first turbo Phil

Anything heavy and on petrol is not good for the wallet. Well so I have found. You can get LPi kits for 2400(bolt on). Plus fitting if needed.
