Default New Car

G'day all,

I know since moving to Sydney and joining the Club I have made it to bugger all but now things have settled down I intend to become a lot more regular at Club events. I also have an added incentive to get out and about because I picked up a new car yesterday. A change from the Typhoon but the value for money couldn't get me to go past the Super Pursuit.

Ken







The old and the new

Ok here's the answers,

The Typhoon was a BA so there is a bit of difference between it and the FG, not to mention the two more cylinders and one less turbo. I will say it does have some pickup though. It wouldn't be as quick as the Phoon up top (it was modified) but off the mark it would be the ute I reckon.

Yep I just worked out my Schedule this week and I will be at the AFD with bells on. Gotta show of the new car after all.

Yes Paul I am sure Ben will be lamenting the loss of a 6 from the brotherhood but you can't please all of the people all of the time, as you being El Presidente`would be well aware of.

Thanks for the comments and I will see you all soon.

Ken

Ken, congrats on the purchase, you must be stoked.

You got two out of the three key criteria!
Correct door count
Correct suspension set up (cos IRS is for girls)

Enjoy it and hope to catch up soon. yes it stings to lose another 6, just means one less 6 up the front on a run... :

Cheers

PS - Those R8's are tempting.....

You have hit the nail on the head there. We all love our cars and as far as I am concerned we are all equal no matter what model or condition our cars are in because we are car lovers and that's what matters.

Once at Crown On MacCreedie, just look for folks in Ford Shirts etc, tehn you should be okay.
We meet in the function room which is past the pokies, turn right and go through the back bar and the function room is on the left.
