There was a FPV F6 Typhoon up for sale a few months ago, according the the ad it was only 1 of 2 registered FPV F6 cars in the uk. So for that reason i doubt there are any dedicated forums/dealers in the uk?

Jared @ Dreamscience brought the first V6 Typhoon over, and after being taken for a spin in it, wanted the big brother XR8T Typhoon.
However after receiving absolutely no help from Fraud in anyway on trying to get one shipped over, I went for their arch rivals, hence the R8 smile

Speek to Jared, iirc he had to do all of the importing of it, (helps that he's Aus (I think))

You could ask Walkinshaw Performance UK as they have imported stuff themselves and put them thro the SVA etc.

They might not touch a Ford tho !!! wink

Nothing specific atm, just what was available/popular in the uk?

Car change maybe coming soon, looking at options

Not as popular as the holdens here due to ford never bringing them in.

Im currently selling my ute as im in line for the new mustang.

Theres another blue turbo ute up in inverness which i know all the history of. The v8 on ebay is not uk registered and cant be for some reason. Although 10years its should be able to just be uk registered now.

There are a few saloons. Problem here is anyone who has them loves them and keep with it for years so sales are few and far between.

Sent you an email during the week.

You can buy a new falcon G6 non turbo in black with any spec from colmine milne for around 38k.

Dunno how much the limo version costs. They do however bring over a few hundred every 6months.
