My trade in is on the net

lightninGStrike FPV · 14-12-2009, 10:59 AM

Five years warranty? I wonder if they will warrant the gearbox/drive train with over 300rwks or if they detuned it. lol. If they will, it would be a good buy, I spent bucket loads on that car.

: Always wondered where it ended up after trading it in at Ford.

How much did they pay you for the trade vs the sale price?

Looks like they've de-tuned it, or there just leaving the new owner to a hell of a surprise!

Trade was around $18,000 by the time the change over was worked out with a few extras on my GS so $22,000 is not much of a mark up with 5 years warranty. Well thats what Ford gave me, who knows how much the wholesaler picked it up for?
And yes it will be a real suprise when someone test drives it, anything under 80kms on a dry road it would spin the rears when you give it some.

Did alright to get 18 for it!!

Its only worth about 15 wholesale...

BBF seem to give good trade ins!

Why wouldn't they mention any mods????LOL
I hope the warranty comes with a free towtruck for when the gearbox lets go!

They probably have photos from forums of it on Moran Park, Lakeside, QR and Willowbank when the buyer comes to get a repair: oh sorry mate this car has been raced so warranty is void. lol.

Haunt me nah it was one of the best looking Blueprint XR's in the club I thought you sold the 19" on here I will let her know - Do you want me to give them your mobile no or email address so they can talk turkey on the CAPA unit with you.
I got a shock when I seen it in their driveway on Friday night when I was walking the dog - there is only 1 blueprint XR I know of with that bonnet scoop on it
And Paul they went from a diesel Landcruiser to the XR - a bit of a change and I have a buffer of 2 yards 4 fences and a few garden beds if it gets out of hand

May not be enough AL. Maybe you should consider some inflatable products of some sort, to absorb the imanant impact.....
