Its a sad day for any ford fan.

[Bucster]

And where did all the Ford Australia executives go....
They built a big new factory overseas with a new fat assed board room.

Yep not a fan of the mustang. Looks like I will never have a car built after 2016

[Bucster]

Nobody has commented yet on the falcon plastered all over the papers as being the last one ever to be made on the 7th oct 2016.
You can even see the date on the car on the falcon roof sign and was in all  the news tv and media on the 7th.
Weird how i posted those photos right here on the 5th..... lol

[winton]

That's the media for you

i was spewin. when they stopped building the utes a few months ago i figured now is a good time(the last time) to upgrade my bf. spent the next few hours convincing my missus how we "need" this and how its irresponsible and amatuerish to have an outdated vehicle as a company car, she got a new new car a couple years ago so now its my turn. few hours later of my hardest work convincing and grinding her down i got her from a firm NO to a whatever. by now i'm believing my own bullshit and work myself up so i go to bed excited and unable to roll over cos im barred up.

next morning rolls around and i'm telling my local ford parts rep my intentions for later onthat morning and he tells me they stopped putting v8's in the utes back in 2011. my mood went colder than abbots xmas card message to lord turnball. thats me fucked.

oh well, time to spend some money on my xr8 and make it great again.

Much the same here Norm, saved some pennies to update the wagon a while back only to find they'd stopped making the bodies... now I've got a BA to restore after the mk1 gt's done.
Took the TE50 for a cruise to mark the end of production, cracked a header and limped home, haha the irony of it all made me chuckle

[BigNorm]

hahaha no way.

i had a set of te50 brakes sitting here in my workshop for years. i only gave them away a couple of months ago. dude didnt wanna pay the big pennies to get the rotors sorted so we put standard calipers etc back on. i told him i'd stick his upgraded stuff in the boot but he said he didnt want it.
