Hi All,
Let me first say a picture says a thousand words and I don't have a pic. But I live in Geelong, and I followed a car from the Norlane pool up to Corio Village from the rear. Looking at it, all the ford badges were covered, and I didn't think too much about it then I thought must be the next Territory. The rear light were the same, then looked in to the cabin and it was being driven on the left hand side. "thought Ford couldn't develop a left hand drive vehicle" I said to myself, so I passed it and looked in the rearview mirror and the front was completely different. Looked more like a Ranger styling at the front. There was no signs on the car to say left hand drive, so I probably assume that it's just a prototype going back to the proving ground.

It's a next gen Ford Everest test mule (Ranger wagon). They're using the Territory rear because they have some design issues to finalise with the legit ones.

It's been spotted by a fair few forum members by now.
It is not a Territory. http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...hlight=Everest
