If I could, I'd like to get my hands back on my old XAGT RPO coupe. In fact my grubby hands on any of the coupes I have owned. Hell, any XA,XB,XC coupe would do me!!!

Always wanted an XE ESP 351 manual in red/black.
I'd also be very happy with an FGII XR6 turbo with 6sp manual.

always had a thing for GT`s all models, but wanted an XY GT since i was 15 (33) years, a HO would be nice , but i`d be wrapped to have a plain XY GT, always had something else that required money though :(.
These days the dream would be to come into funds and have an XY GT and FG335 GT in the garage . |

My ford dream is to be able to stop working on my wife's so I can start working on my chev again lol
All jokes aside there are some very realistic dreams above with the tag of I'll probably never get one Why? Look at what you doing and work out what your needs n wants are and make it happen If you go to an event most of the guys with the coolest cars have gone with out to get the car they want, things like taking a packed lunch to work can save you a packet, toss the foxtell, and things like XB coupes start to become possible As in my actual dream ford Would be a 40coupe black steeliness and red leather trim

My dream Ford has always been a 1963 Thunderbird Roadster:
But the ultimate dream is to have a shed-load of my favourites. |

This is why I have gone for better breathing and stopping power. I have this idea that I am better than some and not as good as others at driving quickly. This is why I chose the AU over the B / F series. It gives me a couple of hundred kilos less weight to lug around just for starters. Power / Weight ratio In November 2013 I will be able to access my Super and could then do what I want to the AU or buy a T3 TE / TS 50 manual ..... if I am still alive!

I'm surprised at how many have said Escort/Sierras. I love em a Sapphire Cossie/RS500 would be next after an EsCos, with a big boost YB.

This is easy for me - I've always wanted a Ford Landau. I love Falcon coupes, but also love the styling and interiors of the lwb models. A Landau ticks all the boxes!
A manual XB GT sedan in factory black & white paint would be my runner up, have always had a thing for them too. |
