Just after reading the outshine thing. I am wondering if anyone will debate the history of why! certain model falcon's were better than holden's ect, with both in 6 cyl & V8. "in there day". pro and con. whether it be ute, fairmont vs premier. and maybe a bit of history as to why the company did so and so.
Starting from the 1960's XK as i recon that any holden with a gray motor in it was rubbish and is not worth talking about. and as every one knows all ford before 1960 were better than holdens anyway. : The XK was a very advanced car in it's day. and ford Australia were on the right track introducing it. a modern car with a big powerful 144 ci motor and a year after a monster 170 ci motor. The XL wins hands down vs holden. The XM has to contend with the holden red motor, but ford have a 200 ci motor now to. but falcon has a hardtop beat that. The XP gets a 3 speed auto in 1965 poor old holden don't get a 3 speed auto until 1970. The XR a 289 V8 what was holden's answer : from 1968 on thing get :evil3: |
