Dude, dont buy an early one with 4sp or T5 unless you only plan minor mods...the trans are weak as... and I know you'll want 300wkws atleast, like me

heh, nah 250rwkw for me, I have to keep it quiet and with the best possible fuel economy so that means no big injectors or high flow exhausts.
I'd love 6 speed auto but they're out of my price range unfortunately. A 6 speed manual would be nice too, but after sitting in a new ute in the showroom the other day I found the clutch really heavy. I don't think the missus would be able to drive it, which is a requirement (unfortunately )
Sadly I'm hitting the "family car" stage of my life. I reckon it's a pretty good trade off

With my car now sold efforts must be doubled to find a T and spend as little amount of time as possible on the train!
I'm searching all the usual places but if anyone happens to see a mercury silver T in the low 20s in their travels let me know

Not sure if I saw it here or on the turbo site, but someone in the territory is selling a black T....sounded like a good deal too. I would've bought it and not the one I've got if I had the choice again
Edit: heres the link for ya Hyena http://www.fordmods.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=50347 BTW transporting a car isn't very expensive either. Reckon it was about 130 bucks to bring one from Darwin to Adelaide a couple of years ago.

Yeah I'd like a black one, too hard to keep clean though!
Even in phantom my EF was bad enough. I also have to get an auto this time around so the missus can drive it too.It's also about 8k more than I wanna spend, and I reckon it'd cost alot more than $130 to get it shipped from darwin!

I finally found one. I was hoping to get one with leather but I thought I'd be better off with a low k example considering I dont do many ks anyway. (and I can always add leather later if I'm really enthused)
2004 BA XR6 Turbo Mercury silver Premium sound only 52,000ks $22,200 with a full tank of fuel and 4 brand new tyres
I pick it up on Tuesday
