Even paying full price, in the windsor, the iridium plugs work out great in the end... Other cheap upgrade is a good aircleaner... and a decent air intake. (although my EB1 was a severe case of the air intake requirement)

The guy said its so people turn up on that day to the yard. There are a bloody lot of car yards in Wangara where I went.
Heaps of Falcons everywhere.
I think its awesome value at full price considering the condition of it. No rust and paint is very good. Few stone chips nothing major.

Was a country car. 1 owner. Old couple. I guess they liked cruising around in luzury.

I picked it up today. Its awesome. Its Argon Silver in colour,

Only thing I've found wrong with it is the ariel wont go down all the way.

I need a degree to work all the buttons. But the luxury is something to behold.

Car is in excellent condition. I love it. Cant do back to a six now.

Thanks for the welcome aboard to the V8 team.

Gaz I hope that car is awesome for you man. If you love it half as much as I love mine you'll be in a joyous state for ages.

Long live FORD and long live WINDSORS.

yeh, i saw a 2nd one today (see my other thread advice)

was missing the v8 badging. someone suggesting looking for signs of a collision..

do they have to legally disclose to you if they have had a collision if you ask?


like if it had, u ask and they say no, you buy the car and then find out it was in a smash, can u use that against them,?
