Well, not that rare model but rare in the sense that it seems to have had not much use but I saw an EB2 Fairmont Ghia 5.0litre - everglade with full grey leather interior advertised in sydney last week with a genuine documented 3,450km, obviously presented as brand new and the price was $19k.

not to steer away from the ghias, but how would i find out from ford how many series 1 EB xr8's were made and would it be possible to find out what number build my xr8 is?
my EB xr8 is a sept 91 car (like ratmans) but black and manual... just curious as i have a wheels magazine from august 91 saying "first drive eb xr8".... so be interesting how many were made between august and sept of 91... might not mean much, more my own curiosity. back to the ghias again i know an older couple who have a 91 ghia, v8 auto that was an ex cop car (victorian federal police if i remember correctly in the log book), leather trim, twin 2.5in exhaust (not sure about that being factory tho) and is blue... is very nice and they the 2nd owners.

I don't think mine is all that common either.
91 EB1 Ghia Wagon in Black Pearl. Mine is a six though, but I have not seen that many early EB Ghia Wagons with the darker leather in them. And certainly not many in Black Pearl. Cheers BenJ

if you're feeling really keen, track them all down and you can allocate them a build number by VIN (good luck, half wouldve been destroyed by now)

as to anyone wanting to know about their car , contact Ford , as i did . They supplied me with an official letter stating Model number , options etc , when it left the factory , and how many of the particular model was made . I personally have seen numerous EB Ghias on the road , BUT , Badges are stick on ,,,,,,, I'd like to see the ID Plate with Model number ,before i was convinced either way , Not that i'm putting a negative spin on things [or really worried ] Just i prefer proof before i say much .. Attached ,selection of letter , Name , Vin , etc cropped out ,, As i said , contact Ford , give them the cars Vin , and you'll know fer sure . Cheers , and Happy New year to all...

Got this for basically $850 after swapping a bike for a 4x4 then swapping that for this wagon.
Trans is a bit stuffed and has a water leak from back of motor but nothing major. the body is in reasonable condition but needs a tidy and color change. I'm happy as with my score and to find out that there was only 27 made makes it just that much more unique. |

Anybody know how many factory 5spd V8 EB Farimont Ghias made? I just bought myself one.
Actually I think it was a onther forum members car, I remember seeing it in the sales yard but I cant find the ad any more. It was before the server upgrade.
