Yep, here I am (never post in Aufalcon club before), but Iam now back in a Ford and the most unlikely one at that.
I just placed a deposit on an immaculate 2001 Organza AUII Forte Sedan on Dedicated Gas. Never thought id by an AU, as i also thought they were bit to rough and ready and not much better than my old EL and vastly inferior to the BA; alas I wrong. It drove beautifully, got a nice LSD diff , the 4 speeder shifted well, brakes had no warpage and it didnt squeak or rattle at all, even on some rough roads and its only got 72,000 Klms on it (with full Ford service history) I pick it up on Tuesday, im one happy camper now, fuel was killing me with the Avalon as I do 40,000klms a year and the option of driving less was not one i liked and i didnt feel like driving a 4cyl Korean buzzbox so here i am. I quite liked the performance, it felt a bit sluggish down low (just like every other falcon) but around 4 thou it really hustled and it loped along on the highway very nicely. So now ive got to sell the Avalon and get some dough so i can get some mods done to it, as it now in grandpa spc mode, immediate mods include window tint and some silver cop steelies to replace the hubcaps. *No pics yet, ill get some up on Tuesday.
