Welcome Daniel. Enjoy your Ford, keep safe and have fun. Ford Forums here is very good too.
Don't forget to complete your signature ASAP that will go with everyone of your posts. You can say what you like. As mine shows, below my post here, I put in details of my present ride. Have a poke around and you will see what others do. All the best from Newcastle. Peter

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I will be sorting out my profile tomorrow. I'm from western Sydney and yes I will be posting a pic of my XR8 very soon. I'm very happy with my purchase. Been waiting for this car for a long time.
My old car was an Alfa Romeo 156. It was like a nimble little terrier. This car is like a big angry daft dog. But who doesn't want a big angry daft fog?
