He works at Leightons on Windsor Rd .... my fiancee works there ... it's always in the carpark ... he has an XR8 as well with HOON plates ... they guy is in his 40's ... top bloke as well.

He traded in his blue ST170 for the XR5T. I think he had custom plates on the ST170 as well.

Red XR5 Turbo on Mulgoa Road, Penrith. Coming out of Sinclair Ford. I think it was going for a test drive because it wasn't hanging around.

Yeah Eddie, I think that's Sinclair Ford's demonstrator XR5 because I've seen it there each time i've visited the dealership recently. I noticed the "5" is missing from the XR5 badge on the passenger rear door as well.

On the weekend I went out with the Classic Ford Club and there were 3 Ford Cosworth's, a Cortina with a Cosworth Engine and Seano bought his new XR5 Turbo. They're all seriously quick cars.

Abraxas, I wonder if they'll give a discount when it comes to the time of selling it?
