The same way Kia sold heaps of Pregios even though the brakes fell off them. The same way BMW & Peugeot sell cars not made to withstand the Aussie summer and have an incredibly high brake down rate. The same way Toyota continues to be the best selling brand…

It’s because most people buy on price, are brand loyal or have their blinkers on and don’t care. Even after reading that I would still buy one or a FG, would not even step foot into a Holden or Toyota dealer

How can one purchase a Territory when Ball joints drop off at 20,000km, transmissions give in at 50,000km, electrical faults, etc…To top this off Ford take no responsibility for their faulty product! No Thanks!

The wiki page for the Outlander states that the ORIGINAL model came out in 2001, and the CURRENT model came out in 2005 in Japan “when all markets adopted the Outlander name”

I wonder how many of the Territory critics commenting have actually driven one? I am not Australian but personally I think Aussies should be proud of the Terri as a locally designed vehicle. We looked at many other options when we bought and none come close to it in terms of handling or value for money. That said the update doesn’t bring much new to the table, bring on the diesel next year….

Jackson,
No, I am not an idiot, you just have a poor understanding of grammer

Did you see the bit right at the start where i listed my post as quoting “The Realist”????

When you use these funny little things “……..”, it means what you are writing is a quote.

Now please re-read my post and consider that everything with in those funny little marks as a quote from The Realist, and everything outside them as my response to what he said.

hey how about all u shutup and give ford Australia a break, this is a hard economic climate and they dont have all the money in the world, look at GM for gods sake, hopefully they go broke and they deserve to because they can nener build a decent looking car the territory deserves more sales than the captiva, and at least ford is actually supporting Australian workers by having this as an AUSTRALIAN BUILT CAR unlike holdens korean captiva

and a word to andrew M ur an idiot and i would gladly pay $67K for a territory and F no i would never pay that much for a camry because their design and ride is that poor its not even funny

Quote Realist……….

“Which bright spark decided to apply the “elevated rep mobile” approach?

Im not sure of exact names, but you can rest assured that the person responsible was made aware of the awards their “idea” achieved

“And who on earth would pay $67K for a Territory??”

Well a lot more people than those that would pay 67K for a Camry

Realist,
In a nut shell they dont want to put any half baked ideas into the territory……..

Whats wrong with that???
Same reason why they havent put LPG on it yet

The Territory is renowned as having the best drive line/engine/handling in its class, I agree that they would be mad to rush in any changes to any of those factors with out thinking it right through
