G'day everyone.
Some of you know I'm now in the market for a AUII/III Fairlane sedan as my first car. Being in WA, I have no powerplant restrictions on P plates. Since many AU Fairlanes came with the V8, I asked in another thread of mine whether I should be limiting my options to the I6 for reliability and economy reasons. Those who posted in my thread rated the V8 as not much different in either respect to the I6. The majority of my driving is on rural/country/tourist roads, cruising at between 60 and 110, many of these roads have only small hills or none at all. Town is just 10 minutes away, with very little stop start driving. From what I can tell from the responses I got before, I should be just fine with either engine. But still, I'd like to know as much as I can about the V8 vs I6 and just about the Windsor 5.0 itself. Give me your opinions! Cheers Chris |
