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

2004 BA XR8 Ute, 5Sp Manual Purchased just over 2 years ago with intentions for it to be a bit of a project car. Been slowly working on it however it doesn't get the time and money it deserves as I need the money to pay for a wedding, resulting in me selling the car. I've put about 3,000kms on it since buying it, it very rarely gets driven. It has 188xxx kms currently. Has full service history too. - New custom exhaust with new cats installed (sounds great) - New power steering pump & hoses

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.
