Default Hi

My info says that they have higher tensile disks as the stock disks could break under severe breaking , can anyone confirm that /

Standard pretty much about everything. Slotted front discs and metallic pads that make loud squeeling sounds when you pull up. BA-BF Mk1 have the lowered suspension, no more today becaused too many bumpers were being torn off.

Highway Patrol may have upgraded electrics but not standard Falc's. There is also an option to stop the interior courtesy light from working to improve night vision.

Other than that they have lots of holes in the dash for radio stuff and worn out motors as they driven like they are stolen. Plus Falcon front suspension wears out badly compared to other cars in the fleet. Don't know what is wrong with it. I drove a brand new BF Falcon, smooth and sharp steering. Drove a worn BA, sloppy and the front suspension and steering rack made the most rattling and thudding and clicking sounds!

By the way the new FG Falcons when started display a Police sign in the centre display. Plus they are a dream, they are awesome. They don't look great but much better than the BF.
