The diesel was a good balance of both power and looks.

Yep and selling the AU in hindsight was a good financial idea but I still look at XRs go by and want to get back in one, hopefully the next car will be along the same line XR8, v6 turbo etc
I still have my AU, but it's lost it's shine a little. I've considered many times at getting rid of it. Eventhou I don't drive it's lots, it still handles well and goes great. Only 87,000 on the clock, so it still feels good.

Give a few more years and the later AU xr's will do well priced.

Thats great news then. Very keen to see the new range of focus and hearing feedback is good. Hope you enjoy the new car.
