My new car!

[wheelsup_cavu]

Sweet ride!

The pictures are .bmp files which create havoc for me too.
It started after the forum switch a few months ago and I've never solved the problem.

If you click on the links below you should be able to see the pictures.
It will ask you to open or save them before it shows them though.

Thanks for all the kind words guys! I converted the pics to a JPEG format, hopefully that sorts out the problem. The last photo has the alumina refinery in the background, a very pretty sight at nightime.

Cheers.

stearing wheel is defo in the right place love the seat covers but it is a ford over here in the UK Ford is an acronym for "fix or repair daily " hope Ford OZ is a lot better than ours

Aw come on! Fords (and MOPARS) are the only way to go! I had another Falcon before this one and gave our family 11 years of faithful service, shes probably been sold off for scrap now. In Aus, ford stands for First On Race Day!

 

[109ROAMING]

Sweet! can see the shots now 8) Good buy mate , looks pretty tidy

 

[Lucky13]

My eyes! My eyes! My eyes!






Nice.......set of......wheels though!

 

[Wayne Little]

I thought it meant Fix Or Repair Daily...

Can see the pics now....Oh..it's a Ford....

...just yankin' your chain man....

 

[109ROAMING]

I thought it meant Fix Or Repair Daily...

Nah mate , Ford stands for F**ked On Race Day!

...just yankin' your chain man....

Doing this also

 

[Lucky13]

I've always thought that it meant Found On the Road Dead.....





Just another pull in the chain..

 

[Geedee]

Arse Cooler/Drinks Cooler? I don't know, I still can't see the bl**dy pics!!!!

Chill dude...its a small white car with a small engine... and a carpeted dashboard !

Oh, and the steering wheel IS on the correct side !

Nice ride mate. Must be quite a lazy car to drive with that motor and being an auto ?

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Nice car. I have never been a Ford fan though. My wife swears by them, but she is not the one paying for the shop work every 3 weeks.

 

[Screaming Eagle]

Everybody may as well get a shot in before this thread gets too old! Gary, the carpet on the dash is there to protect it from damage. Yea it can be a bit lazy to drive, but I am taking it for its first real drive on Friday, so I'll see how responsive it is. Plus, I'm going to add the lazy factor up a notch and test out the cruise control as well!

 

[GrauGeist]

Pretty sure that FORD stands for effed Over Rebuilt Dodge

All kidding aside, that's a clean ride!

...Oh, and the steering wheel IS on the correct side !

Yeah sure...now it is:

 

[Wayne Little]

Just goes to show we're just one big Happy family....with all the Bullsh!t flying here abouts..

Thought you had done the test driving with all that rubber on the road, Jason!

 

[Wildcat]

Gary, the carpet on the dash is there to protect it from damage.

Yup, the sun gets pretty hot down here! I have the pleasure of getting in and out of locked up cars all day, in the Queensland sun it would easily hit 40+ degrees. Sucks to be me

BTW all you guys are wrong, Ford stands for Found On the Rubbish Dump


















Holdens rule... 8)

 

[Screaming Eagle]

Youse can have Lowndes and Whincup!

Yea, the old Queensland sun makes it hard to get into your car after finishing a day of work!

 

[Njaco]

Jeez, you need thigh-high rubber boots to walk around this thread!

I am a spamming whore...

 

[Aussie1001]

Aww c'mon what's all this Ford trashing, so far i've had my car for 6 months and i've only had to replace:

Automatic Trasmission: $ 2. 4 K
Coil Pack: $ 316
Engine maintenance: $ 900
ECU chip: $ 400
Muffler: ( this can be excused because i live on a rocky road and it gets smashed a lot): $ 100

Sigh, paid 2.9 for the car...But meh, she's a head turner and it's got a nice exhaust note


FORD RULES !!!!!!!

 

[CharlesBronson]

Nice car, you Ford falcon looks like an Honda Civic.

We know as ford Falcon something like this, manufactured until 1986.
