Welcome Allan,

This week has seen an influx of EB XR8 owners! Where abouts are you from? There's a couple of cruises coming up shortly in VIC & SA.

Throw up some pics/details of the EB and/or your previous Fords :D

Cheers

-Dave-

I live at Murrumba Downs (Nth Bris). Have had mine for about 12 months and like your's motor is stock as far as I know. Bought it off a young guy on another site, just needed some TLC and maintance. Will have to catch up and compare cars!!!
Mine is manual and your's is auto so they are not exactly the same LOL.

No I didn't know her, just a reply to an inquiry made about the car when it was for sale. Like i said ,we might catch up some time. Would look good to have both cars side by side, could turn a few heads!!!
