Default Melbourne Motor Show Photos

Here are my collection of photos I took from the Melbourne Motor Show. I mainly went to check out the Ford stand and it didn't disappoint! Was a shame that I couldn't catch up with the NSW guys, but oh well always next time!





*I absolutely loved the XR4, Mondeo, Focus Cabriolet and the Typhoon!*

No, the turbo diesel Focus wasnt there. Maybe they'll be in the Sydney Motor Show 2007.
