Description
Finished in desirable Phantom Purple Metallic and showing 125,458km from new, this one-owner 2003 Ford Falcon BA XR8 Sedan is powered by Ford Australia's iconic 5.4-litre Boss 260 naturally aspirated V8, driving the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. Boasting strong V8 performance, effortless highway touring ability and the unmistakable soundtrack of a large-capacity naturally aspirated engine, the BA XR8 represents a defining chapter in Australian muscle car history. As clean, unmodified examples become increasingly scarce, it remains one of the most sought-after modern classics produced by Ford Australia. On offer here is a worthy example of that legacy. The pride and joy of a retired couple, driven respectfully, treated with care and garaged nightly throughout their ownership, it combines genuine V8 performance with the practicality and comfort of a five-seat family sedan. This example presents as an honest, unmodified and well-maintained vehicle that has been regularly enjoyed while retaining its originality.
The Phantom Purple Metallic paint retains a strong gloss across all panels, with only minor stone chipping to the bonnet consistent with highway use. Body panels are straight, panel gaps are even, and the car presents well throughout. Factory seven-spoke XR8 alloy wheels remain in good condition and are fitted with Continental MaxContact tyres showing useful tread. Original XR8 sill plates are also present. Inside, the black leather interior presents very well, with only light wear to the driver's seat bolster. Distinctive Phantom-coloured stitching features on the seats and door armrests, while the dashboard remains free from major cracks. Factory equipment includes climate control, cruise control, the original CD audio system and a factory towbar.
Well-preserved XR8 sedans are becoming increasingly difficult to find, with comparable examples typically selling in the $18,000–$25,000 range and beyond. As unmodified V8 Falcons continue to gain recognition as modern Australian classics, values have remained firm. Accompanied by service records from 2017 to 2022, owner's manuals, two keys and factory tools, this XR8 represents a highly usable and increasingly collectible Australian performance car, ready to be enjoyed from day one.
