Just sold my XR6 wagon - and if it was manual - I would have never EVER sold it!!
This one even has EL front (IMHO looks better)...

2) EL XR6 Sedan

Great Colour, good looking, good on fuel, plenty of go if thats what you want... also its the LAST of the ELs (1998)

3)EB XR8S

Future Collectable? Maybe not - but great car - bulletproof (i've had 2 x EBs, and I'd have another tomorrow if I was shopping with $5000.00)

4)EF Fairmont

Luxo inside, pretty easy on the eye... way better than futura/gli

5) AU Fairmont

Again, nice and comfy... could do worse for $5000.00

There's my tips... all a little bigger than what you are used to...
But - something different...
(hey - what did you expect - this is a Ford Forum!!)

Hmmm I like the EBXR8 Manual too! fair few kms tho how many they good for? The ELXR6 is nice too very clean might have to look at these cars.
