Description
Parting ways with my 1972 Ford Fairmont, a classic sedan that's surprisingly easy to drive for a car of this era. I'm the first New Zealand owner of this imported model, which has covered a reasonable amount of distance over the years.
Under the bonnet sits a substantial 5.8-litre petrol engine that delivers plenty of power and a characteristic V8 rumble. The XA Fairmont represents an important chapter in Australian Ford history, known for its solid build quality and straightforward mechanical layout that made it a favourite among enthusiasts and everyday drivers alike.
Despite its age, this Fairmont remains accessible and manageable on the road. The steering and handling are intuitive, making it less intimidating than you might expect from a car built over 50 years ago. It's a genuine piece of automotive history that still serves as a usable classic.
If you're after a classic Ford with proper V8 character and a bit of presence, this could be worth a look.
