David Morley is one of the best motoring journos. He tells it like it is. He drove a few Tickford test mules in his time.
A fair write up on the 5.6 Tickfords here. https://www.drive.com.au/used-car-re...20100824-13l26

David Morley built a 5.6 as part of a MOTOR story, the car that received the engine went on to be a long term test car for the magazine.

My p will do 10 on the high way. 25 around town. Could go less if I drove it softer but it’s a 5.6l manual Ute that sounds amazing. Small price to pay |
