Motorsportnerd's 2003 Ford Fairmont BA

[motorsportnerd]

Bought an '03 Ford Fairmont BA, in blue. Named Henry Jnr (the red EL was Henry). Same colour as Slick's brother's car.
This car was A$16,000 with 69,000km on the clock. Whereas an '03 Ford Falcon XR6 that I was considering was A$22,500 with 58,000km on clock. Decided to save the money, go with luxury/saftey (dual zone air cond, velour seats, side airbags) over the sports suspension/body kit of the XR6. Especially as they share the same engine.
Am actually surprised how firm the suspension is - was expecting a soft luxury ride. Its still impressive, but seems a lot more taut than I expected.
I've still got my older '98 Ford Falcon EL - at least until someone buys it off me. It can be spotted in the background in a couple of the pictures.

I'm so shocked mate that you said it's go a harder ride then you thought.. My brothers even lowered is soft as hell, Maybe it does have some type of suspension modification to it??.. My brothers car can float over bumps but it can wonder on the highways a touch.. But congrats on the buy it's great It does look like a cloan of my brothers car Good low km's to..psssh fog lights ford cornering lamp kit.
