1988 Ford Falcon XF review from Australia and New Zealand
"Brutal accelerating Ford monster"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Heater died in it, apart from that... nothing.
General comments?
This car is absolutley brutal in acceleration, I loose very few drags.
Handles well, and has a very comfortable ride.
Looks good and sounds sweet, with 12 slotter mags and a large exhaust.
The brakes are very good as it pulls up on a dime.
