For 2005 is the Ford Territory - not news, I know. But I did get to drive a 2WD last night. OK, so I'm not a fan of Falcons and their derivatives, but I was expecting more than I got. Just felt like a Falcon on stilts - wobbly handling, soft ride and not much fun.

This can't really be the best car on sale here, can it? Its cheap for what you get, true, but so's a Hyundai or a Kia. For the price of a Territory I could get a Subaru Liberty or a Honda Accord Euro - I just couldn't tow a boat with one.....ahhh, now I get it....seat four, tow a boat, big six, penny dropped.

Anyone else driven one??

going for a spin in a Gallardo this week some time......Went for a tootle in a Bentley Arnage R with him the other week


Two points to note...

First, tell us more of this - not too many of these in Oz, outside of the Gold Coast and the swankier parts of Sydney & Melbourne

Second, any chance of getting to Sydney in the Gallardo????
