1985 Ford Falcon XF review from Australia and New Zealand
"Excellent, reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ignition coil failed.
Fuel pump needed replacing.
Starter motor needed replacing.
Door handles need replacing often.
Suspension was lowered when purchased making the ride hard - had it raised back to normal.
Rust in various panels.
General comments?
Good, reliable vehicle that just keeps on going. Can handle an enormous amount of cargo (this is the wagon, not sedan)
