Got to go an Ford XR8, the BA MK2

Had ours for 4 years now, had her from Brand Spanking New, went and Test drove the New XR8, a few weeks ago, well for 38G more, really wasn't worth it, for what we would have been getting, seemed our BA MK2 had more get up and go than the new Model XR8, which is meant to be more KW's, admittedly we did upgrade the exhaust system to a Remus and popped a Bigger Pod filter on it, upped the KW's from 260 to around the 300 mark, new models are 290 KW's.

From what I've heard Ford had alot of Problems with the Turbo's, had a friend that got a Turbo, had to have the Turbo replaced in the first year of owning it, then had more problems, which ended up in having to have the whole motor replaced.

Good Luck in finding something :wink:
