My question is, what happens if you find something not to your liking? Do you get them to fix it before taking delivery or ensure they record it to be dealt with at the first service. Not sure I'd be able to tell them to fix it first, the temptation to let it slide just to get the keys would...

FYI, strike action has ended but there maybe delays due to backlog: 17/1/25 Australian freight forwarder International Cargo Express (ICE) has warned of backlogs at Australian ports affected by strikes against terminal operator Qube. The union campaign against Qube – ongoing for months at...

Anyone on Parsifal? It's left Freo and is on its way to Melb then Pt Kembla. Due in Melb tomorrow night then Pt Kembla on 26th Jan. With the Qube industrial action called off hopefully there's no further delays. Got a Vista update last week, ETA to the dealer is still 5th Feb

Kinda hoping mine does the same to avoid Port Kembla. However it's got to get through Melb first Melb looks to be worst hit with complete stoppage of Qube stevedoring services from 0700 13th Jan to 0700 27th Jan (2 weeks). Bris will be stopped from 8th-14th Jan Port Kembla will be stopped...

I like the side by side camera work/editing on this,

Parsifal took the same route and spent 4 days hovering off the coast of Sth Africa waiting for a berth. It's now not due into Pt Kembla until 5th Feb as a result (supposed to be 29th Jan). I suspect my dealer will send me a new ETA in due course.

Looking at your signature makes me feel a lot better about my own waiting period, props to you for your patience. You're right, Parsifal doesn't seem to be the last MY24.5 shipment.

I suspect it's literally the last shipment of MY 24.5 Mustangs going to market, a bit of of an odds and sods basket - like the singles table at a wedding :)

Jealous that you guys have cars in Aus waters. Mine's somewhere in the Indian Ocean, but at least its not affected by the recall and ETA to the dealer is still 4/2/25

I've been thinking about one but don't have a car yet. Will keep this in mind, thanks for the link

Given the delays those who now have theirs, or have theirs on a boat have experienced I am confident the actual ETA for your 25 build will be May or June, not April. Read my signature below for an example of ETA changes. If I wanted to compromise I'd jump on something available now, but I'm so...

Parsifal has been meandering off the coast of Sth Africa for about 4 days now. Supposed to be in Pt Kembla on 29/1 but that is looking unlikely now.

But it is a manual

I don't know where the relay is but perhaps the fuse location below might help you trace it to the relay. Note this is from the Australian manual but I suspect it'll be the same worldwide for fuel related stuff...

I read in one of the review websites (linked in a post somewhere on 7G) that Ford were going to bump the base price by about 3k and the auto was going going to be a no cost option (effectively making the manual a 3k option). Seems that's not the case, I'll try and dig out the article. Edit...

On the MY25's its the other way round 🙄

Very close second!

Nothing beats a clutch pedal :D

I'm Jealous. Parsifal has just rounded the Cape of Good Hope on its way to Durban. ETA to Pt Kembla is still late Jan so that's good news, hopefully its not carrying any spiders :D

I've always like the inline 5's like the Focus and the RS3, they really do have that mini V10 sound.
