Default Chasing an ED,EF or EL XR!!!!

Guys,
Hopefully some one may be able to help out as the title suggests I'm looking to buy an ED EF or EL XR either 6 or 8 or Auto Manual. My only requirements are the lower the K's the better and a really tidy example would be great it will be a bit of a project so a nice blank canvas to start with would be awesome. If anyone could help I would appreciate it! I am in Qld and would ideally like to do something locally however, if the right one became available I would consider travelling to take a look!
Cheers
JKB :voldar02:

I know of a guy with a monza red i think? EF XR6 Auto Sedan... Immaculate condition. Nothing modified AT ALL. Was his oldies car since new and he got it off them wen they updated recently. Just had tyres done a year ago for the first time if i remember correctly... Is 70,000 ish Klm low enough?
The son that has it now is a middle aged ford mechanic and has maintained it since the warranty run out.

It will be top dollar but. And is in Victoria (geelong)

I can find out more monday....

Hey Guys,
Thanks so much for your prompt replies and I would be interested to hear a little more about some of the cars that you've mentioned and possibly some piccies? I'm probably after a bit of a unicorn something in show room condition would be great, but I am realistic and a really tidy car with low K's is the main criteria. Daniel if my budget extended a little further I would literally make you an offer on your gorgeous machine and let me tell you I have seen some lovely cars that weren't XR's and yours is the only one that would ever tempt me to go away from what I was originally after. However reallity has to come into play and we have just sold a car in Brisbane for $10,000 and this is all I have to play with whilst trying to juggle a mortgage,wife and kids etc, in fact the car is going to be mainly the wifes car. Anyway keep the info coming and as suggested if required I will travel interstate for the right one!!
Cheers
JKB

1000 tonne clamping pressure eh? I reckon there'd be some clutch companies who'd like to do some R & D on that clutch..
