Are you making an offer lol?

it's more the fact that you spelt 'forum' incorrectly twice that puts me off it.

Come to think of it, I did make an effort in the other banner thread! Didn't seem to go down too well though... :

what happened to the banner design comp. there were a stack of banners there that could be changed easy to suit a new model.

the one i did could be adapted to new model's, as were all of Big_Pete's entries.



looking at the update with the FG GT, yeah cool, but the dodgy pixelated AU;s are still in it. i love AU's but the pixelation looks real bad.

Yeah, agreed. Also I have to say, probably not the best angle of the FG, sorry to be picky but that just my opinion. (still glad about the update) don't get me wrong.

The current banner isn't bad, it just needs a mild refresh (its looking a bit pixelated). Maybe include the FG race car in the next update?

2 Fg's? I much prefer 2 x T-Series :hihi:

Ok, silly question, but if this is a Ford Forum, why can't we have 3 different cars rather than 3 Falcons. It really doesn't differ at all. Maybe 1 Falcon, 1 Focus and 1 Transit Van. (Ok, not sure about the Transit Van, but definitely something other than 3 Falcons)

FG GT from the front isn't it's best angle IMO. should be on an angle - like the "TEZZA'S" FG XR'S look great dead in front tho : just my opinion...

This subject has been done to death, but why not have a Phase III, a T3 TS50, and an FG F6 310?

They are as good a representation of Falcons as you will find, the two formers are iconic in their era, while the FG F6 is the biggest weapon you can buy at the moment.

I own an AU,BA & BF but I can't see a reason to feature anyone of them. An FG yes -latest (and suppose to be greatest). An XW/Y - Most iconic and symbolic and an XA/B/C Hardtop - Best looking. All purely opinion but still popular opinion.
