Hello all, I hail from the very expensive & very policed Cairns Qld, born & bred. I own a 2000 Ford Fairlane Ghia AU V8 & finding replacement parts is as much of a challenge as finding a reliable & good mechanic.
Yes! The availability of Auto parts, Performance Parts, Car Clubs & Auto Sports is very limited up here at the end of the line. Thank the stars for Air travel, the internet & Australia Post.
I love my car it is a sweet ride for a tank, but due to the availability of replacement parts, I am seriously considering swapping it for a Ford Focus XR5 Turbo. I joined the forum to access the collective knowledge of Australia's Ford owners & hopefully find the parts for the Fairlane.
I would like to know which of the AU models have interchangeable parts with the AU Fairlane. I would love to throw some XR8 Parts in to it, more for reliability over performance, as I realise the Fairlane is built for comfort over performance.
