An old E-series member who's currently inactive by the name of neb, had an EB wagon that looked really tough, I never like Falcon wagons till I saw his, it was lowered with 17's I think, looked cool was it different.

V8 wagon + lowering and wheels = win.

Ive got an el v8 wagon, and i love it.
great car, its only a flagon, but after all the problems i had with the electrics in the farimont, i really dont care about not having all the fancy crap. Just wondering where the car is...there is a nasty eb fairmont ghia (white one) up in cockatoo that i would stay away from...

well, here is the story, went to change over the xr6 for the wagon. turns out after an inspection of the car and a vic roads check, my current car the ef xr6 has been written off in an accident and then repaired and sold as a writeoff repairable. so the dealer for the eb wagon won't take it as a trade.
so have called the dealer and am discussing returning the xr6 to him which i brought only 4 months ago and getting a refund and then buying the wagon.
dunno really - any advise......??????

might end up taking them to court for selling a written off vehicle and not informing me of this which is apparently illegal, so i should sort this out.

I would get some legal advise on this matter for sure.

Another point ..... be very careful lowering the wagon too far .......... as a LWB they can be a PITA to get anywhere......

Ok, went back to the dealer and explained that he sold me the car illegally which he reluctantly agreed to and paid the money back to me.
so i then went and bought the wagon as detailed in the signature.
will post some pics when I get them.

Just some small ones, need a better location and better camera, these were taken with my phone, obviously the first step is to lower it a little.
