2000 Ford Falcon au 11 xr6 review from South Africa
"A cheap performance saloon; nice for drifting"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I experienced was the air con pump pulley's bearing has seized, thus making the car unstartable due to it having only one belt running across all the pulleys crank, alternator, water pump etc.
General comments?
Driver seat shows a bit of wear on the bolster, but hey after almost 29000km, that's normal getting in and out a million times.
The brakes are a bit on the poor side at the moment. She is pushing our 189kw and 400nm.
