There's part of the reason the XR's, and especially XR8s with the BA bonnet are more expensive to insure.

My Ford dealer does not stock the genuine brake pad for my Ford Escape.
The non genuine one they sold and fitted was $55.00 The genuine brake pads are $285.00

Was working on a mate's missus' Corolla in the mid 90's cause it had a preference for running on only 3 cylinders - can't remember which model.
Turned out to be a stuffed plug lead, but all 4 leads and the dizzy cap were molded as one. Toyota wanted nearly $300 for that little scam, whereas replacing the lot with 4 aftermarket leads and cap came to just under $200 |

I want the LTD leather wheel, which is the FPV shape but with the top and bottom sections in dark marble (looks better than the woodgrain in my opinion), and i've seen it on ebay for $190, which is still a damn good price! The cheapest i've seen the FPV wheel is around $650 - and i can't justify the extra $460 just for two more bits of leather. Mate how did you get the price ?? |

The dealer had some listed on ebay, but I wanted to check they were legit Ford wheels and see the colours first. So I rocked up at their parts counter & all good. I got the dark woodgrain as the touch of colour provided some contrast to the otherwise all black/gray interior. Either is better than stock, but the leather sections still don't have a great tactile feel to them. |
