Dam we are way pass this subject bud. Just because it is a hold on post doesn't mean you can't bring up other info or make new conversation lol it's happens on any post . Just because you like ugly cars. even if it did have a Ford badge I wouldn't praise it at all. What type of car do you own

Adults create their own bed time bud.. and yes it also looks like a Mazda also. We call them hold ons as they're just holding together. Makes sense to me as I use too drive pass broken down hold ons on a daily basis in Brisbane from classic to present models.

I drove a Daewoo leganza for 7 years and it had the same motor and gearbox and I traded it in when it was 13 years old with 250k on the dial and it never crapped out. Unless yours was the 2.2, or v6. Mine was the c20.

Nice gift being so dam reliable I sold mine with 200 plus kms . And thrashed it most days doing at least 600 to 700 kms some weeks traveling to work roaming and driving out of town most weekends. Still ran like a charm. I'd buy another one if I seen one going cheap just as a run about

And now if we could just get back, and stay, on topic this thread may last the week out.

Well a pm doesn't hurt anyone if they do mind lol. At the end of the day every person who comments on this forum counts towards some sort of activeness I guess.

Atleast you won't have to close you're eyes and imagine an igsignia. Well that's the not not bacon, compared to bacon then it is what it is (not bacon is the vegan or vego replacement for the thing I can't deal without at 9 oclock in the morning) atleast there are people with kids small enough to fit into the back of a mustang. My son would annoy me having to get into the back of a coupe, but anyways. Atleast ford released a somewhat substitute before they pulled the pin on the go fast and family friendly cars, and had already cemented the mondeo.

AAAAAND Back on topic kids......when I saw the undisguised pics a GODDAMN! fell out of my mouth, that's a good looking sedan and wagon, as said earlier, it kinda looks like a Mazda 6 which I dig too.
My boss just traded his VE11 SS for VF SSV Redline today, he was never going to buy an Insignia no matter what the badge said......

Apparently they have a lifted wagon in the works. Might be OK.
