Some of the comments about the AU here are bewildering for me...I have owned one for 15 years 15/17ths of it's life , over 88% .Complete joy to do so .
At the time , and even since in some regards they were the best engineered Falcon of all time I suggest..Compared to many models the failure rates are quite low , they are generally cheap to maintain and the term ' bulletproof' is way frequently used and especially by those who own them . For the insistent doubters , visit a very comprehensive thread called " Your thoughts of the AU over time " and you'll read an overwhelmingly positive outcome for the AU models. Most are thoughts of those owning them . Most of the dislike is purely based on perceived and subjective physical looks opinions , not on the dynamics and maybe a few of us should refrain from commenting too much other than on the personal opinion . The oldest are 20 years old and the youngest 16 years old now and I doubt that any previous or following Falcon is as common still on our roads . Kind of says it all really .. I won't and cant say the AU Falcon is the best but I can absolutely assure everybody it's certainly NOT the worst , not by a long shot . |
