it goes even further than that. Where your house is in the street will impact the premium. e.g. on a corner. It’s all about the algorithms used to calculate risk.

The only thing I’d say is think about whether you want to miss out on Magnaride. That cannot be added and in experience with my car it’s brilliant.

Has the original car you ordered been built?

No you're not the only one. I have an iPhone 16 Pro Max in a Magsafe case and it charges fine without getting hot.

I love my Grabber Blue - had it on my previous 2017 FM. The blue is slightly different being metallic but I’m very happy with it. I was lucky to get the black pack. I’m Norwood on the bronze pack but haven’t seen it - I’m just having t difficulty visualising how it will work with the various...

Easier said than done it’s a legal notice that if not responded to results in a fine and possibly further legal action

The problem by not having taken title to the vehicle you haven’t suffered depreciation. Ford hold title to the vehicle and they have the risk of depreciation if they don’t sell it. Take a look at your purchase contract and see whether you have any grounds for compensation. In absence of a...

This is really disappointing and I’m sad for all of you waiting for your cars. I really don’t think there’s any grounds for compensation, unless you’ve amended your purchase contracts. You’ve paid a deposit, and if you cancel under its terms you get your money back. Ford Australia know they...

I did consider this but read of some examples where the lock mechanism failed and the vehicle was stranded.

Update - grabbed one of these - solid, easy to fit and remove and well reviewed. A good old school deterrent Will think about remote immobiliser later but for now this will do

That’s interesting - mines been trouble free without exception. I wonder what’s changed? Just thinking out loud maybe there’s been some component changes that have upset the system balance? Foot for thought if thinking about mods. This thing is way more complex than the last gen.

I’ve had my GT for a couple of months and as expected all clear on the recall. For those impacted I wouldn’t be concerned, it will just be a firmware update as part of delivery I cannot see how this will delay delivery - it’s software FFS

Very true - tried and tested!

Thank you XRS Yes I’m familiar with Ford Pass. I know it provides GPS tracking that you and Police etc can use. I’ve doubled down with another hidden GPS tracker from my last car (Solid GPS) Ford Pass though is passive in that it provides no ability for immediate action I’d like to be able...

Apologies if I’m doubling up with another thread Keen to get any thoughts the forum has about anti-theft solutions I understand that there are solutions out there that provide the following features, but not necessarily all in one - remote engine immobilise from smart phone - OBD port kill...

.....and just got an email from the EPA confirming receipt of the CoC and that it has been processed for the Testing Notice issued, and no further action is required. Hallelujah!

Further to my post above, this is the test method that the EPA Vic refers to Stationary test method The stationary test method is set out in the National Stationary Exhaust Noise Test Procedures for InService Motor Vehicles, which is amended from time to time, and is published by the National...

Testing is pretty basic They had me open the hood. One guy leans into the car from a squatted position and starts the car, and then revs the engine using his hand. The other guy is behind the vehicle with the db Meter. I didn't look at the distance closely but I'd say about a meter. (edit: I...

Had the exhaust tested and no surprise it was compliant. Testing cost me $120. If this happens again I will fight it, having demonstrated my willingness to get it tested despite knowing it would be compliant. Still pissed off at the time and money wasted on this, but time to leave it behind me...

Correction: I'm unsure whether they are fitted when they come off the boat. My front bumper is drilled with two small holes. I suspect the dealer did that. They stuffed up putting the wrong plates on the car, so suspect they may have drilled which pissed me off. I use a Craig's bracket
