Image HERE IS MY NEW CAR, ITS A BF 2 XR6 2007, 4 SPEED AUTO DONE ONLY 79,000 KS , HAS FG XR 19S ,TINTED WINDOWS AND A XR8 COLD AIR SNORKEL AND K&N FILTER IN FACTORY BOX. ALSO IS RUNNING GAS INJECTION WHICH I BELIEVE IS THE BETTER LPG SYSTEM WITH NO LOSS OF POWER AND BETTER ECONOMY.

I was more thinking along the lines of wheels or suspension, not so much go fast bits. Will be a bit better to drive than the old EB. The interior would be heaps nicer than stock EB Fairmont either way. Very nice pick up

paid $14,500 for it without rwc. i could of bought a xr6 turbo for the same money, but im not after power.just want something smooth to drive, economical with gas injection( 4k system), not gonna touch the thing, dont want to mod this one.only done 80,000 ks so it is fairly low ks for its age.the fg wheels were a bonus when i bought the car , and i believe they are original and worth 3k new. cheers Mark.

took it easy on one tank of gas, here are the figures.. 49.4 litres got 322 kms. that makes it 15.34 l per/ 100kms or $8.70 per 100 kms with a 8c discount docket at shell. in easier terms it cost me $28 to fill up full tank of gas. gas was at 64.9 c a litre.

That's decent, goes the car go just as hard on gas as petrol?

I've got a 53L tank (or 50L) with 40~ usable. I had no idea my tank was so small until I compared it with a few others in commodores and falcons. :/

yes mate, goes hard on gas, u cant tell the difference between petrol and gas. its well worth it( 4k) system. it was converted at smithys lpg in bayswater. and has been serviced there as well, il prob bring it back ther too. my system flashes on green light for reserve and wen empty it beeps and i think it changes back to petrol automatically cas the red light comes on for petrol.
