Well i can confirm that the XR4 is in Australia and on its way to being sold shortly...
I was on the Train This morning attempting to sleep (due to the fact its a 1hour train ride and i get off at central...anywho) and the guy behind me kicked my chair. and as i awoke from my slumber i looked to my left out the window and we so just happenend to be driving past the Ingulburn Holding Yard... I saw orange and it was an orange XR5T.. so that made become alittle more awake as i went OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO......mmmmmmmmm mm but as i looked to what was sitting next to it.... that made me jump to a state of allertness that you get when... i dunno... never felt that alert..... It was a Performance Blue XR4!!!!! with the White stripe package as dictated..... So people they are HERE!!!! BOYAH!

The reason there is no pixs, is cause Photn has no dedication what so ever. He had the option of jumping out the train window, but didnt.

The was just no dedication at all to the XR4.
Sif you just didnt freeze time jump out the window of the train, run around the other one, take the pics and then run back into your train, and unfreeze time. Hrmm i think ive got to much time on my hands at work tonight. Chris

I pity the poor bugger who's going to think he is buying a new Focus but gets a repaired one instead.

Damo GOD DAMNIT!!!! stop changing my thread titles you twit......It was called "XR4 Has Landed" for a reason...
None the less. ... On that focus you are all talking about the tape has been pulled up... there is nothing wrong with the bumper...

I classify them as spy shots because
a) It was an effort to actually take em (through a fence and high grass) I would have jumped the fence to get closer but it was high voltage, so i didnt wanna get me balls fried. b) No one else had the chance to go and get em. So i jumped at the opportunity. Plus, it shows that some are still not waiting on the boats. Anyways im pretty happy about it. Sean stop you tantrums. |

XR5 - not sure why, might be they get more special treatment on board, or might be the exhausts, really not sure. All I know is that Focus sedan def has it on!

I'd say its probabaly something to do with the stripes, not good for the dealers to have to put new ones on after they peel them off with the protective stuff.
Nice work Damo, but "didnt want to get me balls fried" pffft... no commitment..... :togo:

Ok yes i should given more dedication/commitment in getting closer piccies but where we were was fine enough for me. I was insisting we actually drive into the holding yard or there abouts as say we are from the RTA or some motor magazine doing an onsite inspection. But someone for got tobring ther ID badge.
Rob, yeah i just noticed that too. Blue one looks round, but the white is squarish. |
