AU2 XR6 VCT
Here's some great photos sent in my Andrew of his brand new AU2 XR6 VCT...Talk about yummy...I never thought much of the AU2 XR in the blue (galaxy) until I saw this car! Apparently, these photos were taken while the car was only "a couple of weeks old now and still a wee bit tight, but that new car smell is still in it." Hmmm...can almost smell it now (snap out of it Duggy!!!).
| I'll let Andrew continue.....
"Anyway back to the car...she's a series 2 XR6 VCT 5 speed manual (proper trans !!!) with a Momo wheel and g/shift, body kit and 17" wheels." |

"You may notice the wheels aren't the S2 17's the XR's came from the factory with. They are in fact the wheels of the
TE 50. Due to a two week delay at Tickford in obtaining the correct XR8 wheels Ford decided to leave the remaining stocks to the XR8,
and fit the TE50 wheels to any XR6's that had been ordered with the 17" wheels as an option to keep vehicles moving out to dealers.
Impressively, this makes each of these vehicles so fitted rather a collector's item.
"So a rather unique vehicle indeed, and the wheels are rather hard to obtain as I believe from the parts guys. I have already had a number of people wanting to know if I wanted to swap!!!!! Anyway keep up the good work as the site is going ahead great guns..."
Thanks for that one Andrew - and for being our second AU2 to be featured on this site!
