It’s time for the ‘good oil’ on the engine that is set to replace the venerable ‘Barra’ in-line six-cylinder in Ford’s Falcon and Territory range in 2010. While we lament the eventual departure of the excellent local built 4.0-litre there is plenty to look forward to in its replacement.
It puts things in a weird kind of perspective when you leave the Lamborghini stand with its million dollar black Murcielago and you wander around to the Shannons Auction House display to see a 1970’s Falcon GTHO with an expected selling range of $650-800k…drum brakes and black vinyl interior included.
