1986 Ford Falcon XF S-Pack review from Australia and New Zealand
"An amazing machine that combines comfort with extreme power!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far the only thing that has gone wrong with this car is the door handles. I have broken 2 but, these are cheap and easy to fix.
General comments?
This car has the power to go anywhere on the road and sometimes off road too.
However, I find that for a first car, it drinks the fuel like a Camel.
But this is nothing considering the amounts of torque the 4.1L engine packs.
The car is pretty much standard and is the s-pack model, I just haven't got the money at the moment to do anything to it, just the small cosmetic things like seat cover and chrome floor mats. It is looking pretty sweet inside now though.
