Nice to hear you finally get a V98 (or sort of) mate.............
We've got a BF MkII XT (parents), VS Ute (dads work hack) and my XR8, so I guess you could say we are a Ford mob.

My three year old daughter insists on being dropped off to pre-school in "mum's" xr6t (Not "dad's 4wd). If you ask her to go pick something out to wear shopping etc - its her Craig Lowndes shirt.
Yes, blue blood all through my family too. zephyrs, falcons and escorts. My ol' man drives a Mitsu challenger, fully equiped with a mark2 zephyr badge on the tailgate. Only he would know why...
