No ford haven't build a taxi spec falcon since the BA, 6 seater dedicated gas and vinal floors. Falcons have been the choice for cabbies for only one reason, because they last the longest. Then again I may go and talk to a brick wall, after all why waste time with someone who chooses a v6 front wheel drive Citroën for 'carving' up corners lol.

Of course Citroens are crap on corners that why Sebastian Loeb was world rally champ in the same model I drive, Falcon have the taxi market sewn up in OZ cars are delivered ready to go in correct city cab colours LPG powered meter installed and at fleet discount price. Falcons do last a long time on LPG lots longer than the same engine on petrol the fuel is much cleaner burning but of course explaining that to someone who thinks Aussie cars handle is a waste of effort

Dead right, a very predictable outcome really, happy to rave on about them but don't own one.
Hardly ever see a ford or holden taxi in Brisbane. Most of the are toyota or nissan.

one of my falcons has relavence to its racing days with the same mods to engine as dick johnsons greentuf ford which is still the same family of ford engine in v8 supercar today, if i spend a bit more it could have supercar power but no i am not going to do that. my fg has also got relevance to a supercar as the tail lights i believe are exacly the same

Your the only clown around here , but you dont need to prove it daily. My Falcon is 45 years old . Do you have Splinters in your Bum !.
Good grief an old XC had one of those but it spat the tranny out, shouldnt tow with a ford I guess

Cmon guys go easy on chebry she obviously loves her nana spec Citroën enough to think it has relevance to a 600hp 4wd wrc car. Just a bugger they still come out with an archaic 4 speed auto and I'll take a guess and say dodgy French build quality as per normal.

Chitcan~FIGJAM is a sad sorry one eyed dreamer, full of pi$$ and self importance, opinion on everything, non Holden owning supporter. Most people can see good in anything but every now and again you get a blue chip dork that is a legend in his own eyes and mirror. Not worth wasting time on, just watchout in case you see a Helmet & Glove wearing Chitcan steerer performing near you, especially if he is driving one handed LOL.

Lets get back to Valiant rust, how come there are very few Chargers on the road today!, Ferous Oxide, thats why, rotted out rear windows, boot lid surrounds, wheel arches, sills, door pillars, lower guards etc etc etc, good engines, crap bodies.
