I would like to congratulate Ford on such a magnificant effort at the brissy Motor show. I can't believe how much better the Ford Stand was than it's competitors. Was outstanding and had a really good feel to it.
Well done Brendan |

agree 100% with you on that brendan24688..
I kept walking back to the Ford area and really found the Holden section to be quite dull.... (and no, its not me just being biased - well, maybe a little) : |

I know it was addictive. I was shocked usually Holden put on a good show but Ford felt so much better, and very family orientated, but also very encouraging for young enthusiasts.

If you can all wait until tuesday (I know, stupid question), I should have a few. Is there any Aston's there? Dying to see a DB9 Vanquish in the flesh.

Ford's stand was great. Bit cramped though, that was my only gripe.
