Default Question.

I've had XR falcons, since the EB. Since then I have stuck with Tickfords, til AU111 Tickford, which I still have....Not a fan when they went FPV,...?

I have been toying with the purchase of a AU111 Pursuit Ute, (250) and just wondering...if they are actually worth buying;.....(Not so much as an "investment" as all mine are purchased to enjoy); compared to the later..AU XR8 220kw utes...??

The other path (quandry) is a T50, as opposed to a Late AU111 XR8 220kw.
Any comments would be appreciated.

Cheers; Clea.

you do know that FPV is just rebranded tickford
the BA GT/GT-P were going to be TS and TE models before the rebrand

1 post in 3 years is certainly taking your time. T3 is the one to buy if you're into the Tickfords but it will cost you a mint if you can find a good one. Nothing wrong with a pursuit 250 either in the AUs. I had 4 XR8 AUs in the various guises but wouldn't swap any of them for any of the FPVs i have owned since.. Buy the TS.
