FORD FALCON Used Car Review

The Ford Falcon was Australia's longest continuously running nameplate up to the cessation of local production in October 2016 - 56 years after it debuted as a US-based model. Ford's large car started to become more Australianised from the 1970s and it would eventually compete against the Holden Commodore in a famously fierce local rivalry. There were luxury models such as the Fairlane and LTD, ute spin-offs, and sportier models such as the XR6 Turbo and V8-powered XR8 of more recent times.

Pros

Cons

  • Roomy and comfortable interiors
  • Wide range of models
  • Excellent, torquey six-cylinder engines
  • Engineered specifically for Australian roads
  • Thirsty LPG engines
  • Taxi stigma
  • No longer in production

  • 340000 km
  • Sedan
  • Auto
  • 6 cyl 4.0L

This Ford Futura 2023 drives okay per its age. Has slightly damaged driver`s side door due to a minor non-structural Kangaroo Accident in the past. There are a few dents here and there. But we still do a return trip of around 70 ks in a day to and from work every second day in the week. Need to sell the car as is without RWC. $1,800.00 without RWC. *$2,500.00 with RWC. If RWC expense exceeds the above price, the additional amount required to RWC could be added to this amount.

I'm basically at a crossroads with what to do and after much thought i think I'm finally ready to let go of it. I stupidily let the rego expire about a year or so ago, so it will need to go over the pits. The only thing i can think of it failing would be the ride height (easy fix, just install the stock suspension). I purchased with 80k kms, its now at 223k. Its had full servi

WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR: FORD FALCON (FG, 2008-2016)

Watch out for a used Falcon that has been abused by a previous fleet-operator owner.

Clunks over bumps can mean worn suspension bushes.

A pulsing through the car when you apply the brakes probably means worn and warped front brake rotors. Sometimes these can be repaired, but usually new rotors are the best strategy.

The automatic transmission has an external fluid cooler, but these can fail, allowing coolant into the gearbox where it quickly wrecks both the mechanical and electronic functions of the automatic. Check the transmission fluid for milkiness that suggests the coolant and oil have mixed. If they have mixed, give that car a miss.

Make sure the central locking works perfectly, as this is an early sign of a failing body computer.

Check for low coolant level in the radiator. An O-ring at the back of the water pump is a common cause of coolant loss.
