Hi all, just got back from the local ford dealer here in the Alice. Had a long chat with the service manager. He said that ford are testing their new large car here at the moment. They are towing their dyno trailers up and down the hwy during the heat of the day. I know the hotel where these guys stay so I wil sluething around their with my trusty camera.
Photo's will be $5.00 each. Just kidding.

You do realise that they now know you are hunting them and will be extra sneaky.

If you get decent pics that would make you the biggest legend in the entire world, you do realise that don't you?

Is this going to end up like that thread about this guy buying the supposed nice X-series for $1000 that had been sitting in a shed that was immaculate ... when for 50 pages and no pics.
Subscribing to thread for amusement value ... :hihi:

Motor yes, wheels maybe not for a Ford.
Low shot I know.

If they really were Orions (and not BF mules) then I highly doubt they'd park them overnight in a Hotel carpark.
Think safe warehouse/garage somewhere. I too doubt they've made it out to the desert yet, I thought they're still crashing the poor things. |

We should all pitch in and send a pallet of boags to outback if he gets the pics.

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if they are out there, but I dont think it will be that easy to get pics, during the day would be your best bet.

outbackjack..you know Craig/Andrew do sometimes tell little porkys..especially since some years back Centralian got broken into by a car mag photo guy who took pics of test platforms and released them.
Ford were not impressed and Centralian had a big security upgrade. And it took sometime if ever to get them back. Hit the Plaza at about 5/6am and you should get pics of them getting ready to hit the road.
