Default New member saying hello !

Hello,

Just posting an introductory 1st post,

My name is Mike, I'm 42 and from S.A.

I recently bought a secondhand 2005 BA II Fairmont Ghia v8.

I've have a few issues with my Fairmont.

I've started a thread about my issues in the link below.

http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...73#post4801373

Cheers,
Mike71

Welcome to the Forums! Sorry to hear you're having issues with your BA II and hopefully all can be resolved. You might actually find some helpful advice on here.
