Hi all,

Thanks for accepting my signup.

Just bought myself a 2007 BF MkII XT sedan for country driving and the odd bit of towing, only has about 217k on it, which is barely run in for a Barra so I'm told. I was originally after a wagon or ute, but they're either horribly expensive or completely flogged (or both)... but I found a nice sedan near me for a very reasonable price, so here I am.

My other car is a 2012 VW Up, which is great in the city but in the country it's about as useful as a chocolate teapot (still love that little bugger tho).

The BF isn't my first Ford. I've had a few 4-pot Fords over the years (AR Telstar, KE Laser, MkI Mondeo) but this is the first big car I've ever owned.

Seeing as my BF is actually pretty nice for a pov pack and I'll be spending a lot of time behind the wheel, I want to do some upgrades e.g. light bar, aux/bluetooth, hardwired dashcam and sat nav etc and will probably be leaning on the Australian Ford Forums Brains Trust a fair bit so I don't break anything.

Cheers.
