I am the Owner had a ball doing the Review thanks Jono I think it went very well Great Review I knew it when you couldn't wipe the Smile of your face after the Drive. Thanks for the opportunity to show off the car I reckon I could shave a bit off your time but hey.....Top Job Mate......Mick.

@RossReviewsau Год назад

Thanks again for bringing it down mate awesome example

@mattsleeman3949 8 месяцев назад

Hey Mick, Jono mentioned the exhaust had been changed? What aftermarket option did you go with? @user-fo5kl1uh7z

@mattsleeman3949 8 месяцев назад

Hey mate, what exhaust do you have on it?

@MartinJones123 Год назад

This one needs to stay stock with its low kilometres... Great review 👍

@RossReviewsau Год назад

As much as i hate a stock barra i have to agree with this one.. i was impressed with its speed even just from factory

@jorgepeters7474 Год назад

Even though I'm a die hard Holden man, Ford have come up some very nice cars.What a shame if the Australian car industry was allowed to continue on, amazing cars could've come out from Holden and Ford.But unfortunately we sold out our country to the globalists and their telling us to buy Korean crap mobiles, Japanese matchbox cars, and Mexican mustangs.What I've noticed the prices of imported cars are way too expensive and most of them look alike.Where going to be forced to drive electric cars and God help us when the batteries die out and you have to replace them.

@MartinJones123 Год назад

@@jorgepeters7474 Agreed 👍

@rwd323 Год назад

The ‘prestige centre command unit’ dual zone air conditioning and colour screen was standard on the Typhoon and optional on the Tornado

@RossReviewsau Год назад

Thanks i figured somthing like that

@petermanuel7128 Год назад

Great review of the F6 Tornado, Ross. What low kilometres it has. It looks very well looked after. Very good 0-100 considering its stock. I reckon those would have come factory with the premium sound system like your F6 Typhoon but someone’s optioned that Tornado with the standard sound system to make it cheaper to buy. Thanks for the review.

@RossReviewsau Год назад

cheers peter thanks for the info.. impressive ute for stock drove really well

@mills3375 Год назад

My understanding is that Tornadoes came standard with the Basic ICC interior standard with the Premium Colour ICC being an option. Believe the reason was as you said just simply being a Ute wanting a more basic durable interior

@beedseed4724 Год назад

maybe during mk1? im not sure. I always thought it was the base uprgrade, meaning if you bought the tornadovyou got the better screen

@RossReviewsau Год назад

thanks for the info

@chrissmith9854 Год назад

Bf’s came out in 2005 with a 6 speed auto.. xr6T xr8 and Fairmont and fpv..Australia’s first 6speed auto.. great review for a iconic all Aussie motor and Australian design Ute.. something Holden let go in the late 90’s

@willm687 Год назад

What the vevf was Holden designed the engines were American but ford used American engines as well in V8’s. Much rather a vf GTSR Maloo over a fgx xr6t ute. Same year you know what I am getting

@RossReviewsau Год назад

thanks for confirming mate! what a good box too

@lmc7233 Год назад

My dream car, been waiting for this one and you did not disappoint! great review as usual ross

@RossReviewsau Год назад

thanks mate! very hard ute to find

@rwd323 Год назад

Oh man I almost bought one these a couple of years ago, it was so cheap 😢😢

@beedseed4724 Год назад

Story of my life bro 👍

@RossReviewsau Год назад

they still are relatively cheap.. i was shocked you could get a decent one for under 20k.. but i think its just lack of knowledge on them

@111Aardvark Год назад

First time I ever heard of a Tornado, fascinating. Keep em coming Jono ...

@RossReviewsau Год назад

REALLY! glad i could inform you

@mickmcminn2976 Год назад

Great vid Ross! That 0-100 is impressive...... all done and dusted on the street in 5.6 using just 1 gear! Very, very few stock cars could pull that off in the real world. See if you can review a mk8/8.5 FiST in the near future, they're a laugh a second! 😂

@thatguyben3128 Год назад

_💯 agree the early BA clutch issues didn’t go down well but thankfully the BF with sweet ZF, made the F6 an iconic Aussie performance car💪🏼_

@tomnewham1269 Год назад

I'd say the reason you are loosing rear traction in the ute compared to your car is that the ute has leaf springs compared to coils on your car. Leaf springs are so agricultural and car companies using them are just being cheap skates. Before anyone says leaf springs are better for loads then need to look at train carriages as they use coil springs. Thanks for the review Ross. As much as I am a Holden man through and through I must admit this ute is an awesome vehicle.

@fraserthompson8824 Год назад

I have a BF Tornado in the same colour and I absolutely love it. It has 126 000kms on it and I am about to park it up!

@MrHeath1971 Год назад

If only Ford used a similar rear suspension set-up like the Holden SS Commodore Ute - it would be perfect!

@RossReviewsau Год назад

would have been nice to see one like that eh.. still with the rear end like it is its exciting to drive lol

@bksniperguy Год назад

Iirc holden still used leaf springs in their utes until VE

@351tgv Год назад

@@bksniperguy - yeah they had them for the ONE TONE and Crewman and even gave the crewman AWD from the Adventra.

@jrbuch Год назад

Before getting a partner and kids, I seriously considered an FG XR6 Turbo ute. They look like a heap of fun.

@myxrutefalcon269 Год назад

Tornado based on xr6t typhoon based on Fairmont interior

@RossReviewsau Год назад

thanks for the info!

@jesseallan3886 6 месяцев назад

USA would have loved these utes. They get a big pick-up, lower it and work the engine to try to create a sports pick-up similar to these

@stephenwalls3979 Год назад

Holden VE SS and HSV had 6 speed autos back in 2006 the exact same time this came out

@warlikeboar Год назад

yep, I got a manual VE SS in late 2006 but the 6 sp auto was definitely available, if Ford was first it was only a matter of months and the VE was defintely a generation ahead, still that Turbo Barra was a beast of an engine

@RossReviewsau Год назад

apparently i was mistaken.. first BF cars came out in 2005 so it was the first 6 auto just before the VE i guess

@Garage-uj7pv Год назад

Excellent context to the car's production mate and no way you're faking those reactions 🙂👌

@RossReviewsau Год назад

all natural :) i really get excited in these

@lmc7233 Год назад

Can confirm but the utes skid 10x more just from no weight and the leaf springs got a xr6 ute and the thing swings all the time compared to my mates sedan

@RossReviewsau Год назад

they absolutely do eh

@pete508 Год назад

Mate that's one nice Ute it has the power,looks & plenty of room in the back it's all you need in my honest opinion especially in mint condition like this beauty & yeah it's not manual but the ZF is a top box regardless,another enjoyable review cheers buddy.

@RossReviewsau Год назад

This Ute was crazy fast for stock! Absolute beast

@AlexKokkinarasMusic Год назад

@rossreviews The ute icc you're talking about would have been an option. Whether it be optioned to remove the premium one. Or to add it in. When purchasing them new Xr models included. You had millions of things you could add or remove etc. Much like Holden

@jasonboggs5454 Год назад

I have a bf 2 tornado that was option with the premium sound and dual zone aircon from the factory if I knew you were in nsw I would have let you drive it .

@keanvanderwesthuizen3476 Год назад

Great review once again mate keep these reviews coming i hope you review the holy grail package on either a fg with the Miami setup up to the fgx with the same motor it will be interesting great vids mate 👍🙂

@reubenfox6357 Год назад

The way it handles in the rear is all to do with the utes having a solid axle.

@RossReviewsau Год назад

very true mate

@351tgv Год назад

more specifically the rear suspension is leaf springs based, in this trim spec FPV would of installed a anti-roll bar (sway bar) to help smooth out corners but they can't do anything about bumps as the dampers from BA onwards (for all LWB wagon and Utes) were located on outboard of the leaf springs (whereas on X and E series they were inboard of the leaf springs). it's always been a debate as to which is better but overall they do the same job but in different ways.

@351tgv Год назад

I forgot to mention that it was from A series (so AU I, II & III) that Ford Australia changed dampers (shocks) location from inboard (X & E series) to outboard (A, B & F series).

Beautiful ute 100% a Collectable to DEFINITELY HANG ONTO.🇦🇺👍 FORD IS THE BEST JUST GIVE THEM HEAPS OF TLC. THEY WILL GO FOREVER.
