hi there every1. i just wanted to confirm another thing thats put me off this XR... now dad treats this thing like s**t to be nice. while still in reverse and moving backwards he hammers it into D and starts accelerating while the car is still going backwards. and visa versa.. also moving into the P position when the cars still rolling foward. its a zf 6 speed and i cant help but feel this is damaging or going to damage the gear box..

ive tried... he doesnt care. im over the whole car. got my eye on a BF 1 Ghia at the moment 44 000km dark blue $22 000, 6 speed ZF premium sound leather and dual zone
at the end of the day id much rather loose the premium sound and dual zone in his xr and end up buying a non thrashed xr with a/c and monochrome screen.. not like the speakers are any better on the premium sound |

Company cars can do amazing things..... pity that you were due to get the car at the end. Personally, I wouldn't want that car as the box will be in a sad state after that abuse!

You could buy a nice V8 EL Ghia for the price of a new ZF....
Why does he treat it like that? Company car? Mike
