Default Re: The Best Falcon model

Its much easier to consider the worst than to pick a best in my opinion.

I remember getting around in Dads XY and XR back when I was only a wee tacker and loved them, then he bought an XD and I have fond memories of the warm seat fabrics on a cold night driving home after a get together.
I remember the day he brought home a white XE s pack as a demo and begged him to trade the XD on it but unfortunately it never eventuated.
Then one day a family friend rocked up in his brand spankers 88 XF S pack in white and I was hooked, when everyone else growing up in Elizabeth had a love affair with white 5.0 VL Calais I yearned for my own XF S pack or Ghia and owned a few of each over the years and although the Calais was still high on my list, I just never pulled the trigger on one for some reason.

With the exception of XB I've owned every model from XA to BF3 and if I had to pick one to drive interstate tomorrow it'd be an AU hands down, I think they we're the best of everything the Falcon was about, relatively simple in tech but as tough as nails and reliable beyond comparison for a locally made car.
