ok. I went last night to a servo in Mandurah (WA), but they didnt have them and hadn't heard of them, but when I went this morning they said (as mentioned above) that the promo starts tomorrow and lots of stations havent received their stock yet. This IS Australia wide. As for the error on the XW plate, dont complain... errors have a way of becoming very valuable in the future
 1 point i found interesting, when i went last night and asked about the Ford plates, not only hadn't they heard about them, but they said "Ford??? they never do Ford. It's always Holden" could this be an indication that Ford are finally seeing the light re- marketing? I have also noticed a few more Ford ads than normal on tv lately.

I was in the servo shop when I spotted these plates with various Ford muscle cars pictured on them. They are the size of a standard number plate, picture of car on one side and specs printed on the back.
The models featured are XP, XR? XW,XA,XB and XC Cobra.They are $4.95 each, I thought I might get one for my young bloke as I could see an XYGT on one, whoops! The picture is a XY GT, the caption next to it says XW 1969, and on the back it lists the engine as a 351 Windsor, well close but no cigar! Not sure of how right they got all the other models. Anyone else seen them? Cheers Dave |

 : they still hadnt unpacked them so must have only just arrived. they come delivered in the display stand they have, so not sure how many stands each servo gets, but there is that many plates in them. so get in quick would be my advice.

Picked myself up 2 sets from Shell/Coles on Old Cleveland Road at Camp Hill today. One for the die cast cabinet, & another to appreciate and flog on Ebay in the future. I'm not ashamed to admit it.
: Anyway, what caught my eye was the side of the display box. It featured not 6 but 7 plates. The 7th being the 08 FPR racing falcon in the media release colour scheme sans sponsor decals. Alas it appears to be not available, as the promo suggests, collect all 6...  : I JUST WANT ONE! |

Got 2 sets of six from the shell in singleton. (north of Mandurah) In the display box there was only 5 but upon looking closer I found the sixth set hidden behind another set... so if u only see 5 try sifting through them incase some idiot has put some in front of others.

Has anyone got these in SA yet? The Shell that I went to didn't know about them. They then looked at their merchandise book and found them listed, but didn't know when or if they would get them.
