Just wondering if someone could clarify something for me.
I'm currently looking at buying an AU3 XR6. It's got the optional 17" XR8 rims and Ford Racing/Rebel Bodykit. Only thing is, it hasn't got an option plate. I was under the impression that all cars that received some sort of 'Tickford treatment' also received an option plate? Is this correct and perhaps this car didn't get those things from factory, or am I way off? Cheers, Anthony

Being a series III I think all of those things were standard. Maybe someone can clarify.

On the XR6 the Ford Racing (Rebel) Bodykit is an optional extra, NOT standard.
All the XR8's I looked at all had the Tickford Option Plate fitted to them on the drivers side in the engine bay next to the radiator header tank bolts. Mine has the Momo Wheel and Shifter listed.

Thanks everyone
 It's a VCT so does that mean it should have an option plate listing the rebel kit?

Is it an XR6 VCT ST?
 If so it had the Ford Racing (Rebel)body kit, Leather, momo gear, Azzuros, etc fitted asd standard. These end of model limited edition cars did not get a Tickford plate. Cheers James Last edited by Jimmyd; 03-03-2011 at 11:58 PM. |

Thanks for the replies. Turns out that one isn't as good as it seems.
I'm going to look at an '02 XR6 tomorrow. It's got the Momo wheel and shifter (and has an option plate) so hopefully it's good
