I have for sale a 2002 F@#D BA Falcon.  I no longer need it as I am picking up a company car Monday (with fuel card...yippee!).
You will all be pleased to know that the car is a Holden Commodore.  It will look nice in the back yard next to my FC.
Anyway, it is a very good vehicle and is in tip top condition.  I am asking $9,500 for it.  It has a Roadworthy Certificate & is registered until October '08.  It is kitted out with 17" alloys, spoiler, tow bar and also has an electronic rust proofing system fitted.  Paint & Interior both in really good condition and can return around 10 litres per 100 km on the highway.  Until I got this car I was a died-in-the-wool Holden man, but it almost turned me.
Car is in Toowoomba.
Please follow the link if you want to view it on Carsales.com.

It works in the same way  petrol refineres protect there underground steel pipes from rust by putting a small electrical current through the pipe to repell the ion not sure if it's + or - charge, that would cause rust , think it's called electrostatic protection from memory ........FC427.......

They use this technology on large ships i.e. frieghters.  It is yet to be proven on cars??  Please don't get me wrong, I am not knocking the car for sale, just that i recall it was a big discussion when I was doing Chemistry, and it was still then yet to be proven.  On the larger ships they drag a line which creates an  electrostatic charge which is attached to the hull, and is supposed to reduce the formation of rust???

Hi all,
Just to let you know that I have decided to drop the price of my Falcon to $8,750 after doing a bit of research in the Motoring section of Saturday's Courier Mail.
It's a very tidy, reliable car and you would struggle to find a better example.
I concur with the comments regarding the rust protection.  I have owned the car for 12 months & to be honest the other day was the first time I popped the bonnet.  It was only then that I knew it had the thing fitted.  I am not convinced whether it works or not, the car has no rust, but I wouldn't expect it to either at only 6 years old.  I did own a '93 Pajero a few years back with a similar system fitted & despite a few fishing trips down some sandy tracks it had no rust, so maybe it does work.  Guess the jury is still out on that one.
Cheers,
Peter
