Ungabunga Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I went to Ford today with the intention of ordering an extra remote key fob but they said that it would be 4,000 Baht! Does that tally with what anyone else has been told? it just seems a tad expensive but then again I've never bought one before..so just thought I'd ask here first A key fob earlier today; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonman Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Thanks for the heads up, Bt4,000 is cheap. Back home in AUS I hear they are wanting almost 20,000bt for another keyfob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a fire truck not sure how many shades of red the ranger is in but i have seen three. the copper red looks good but the bright red is not the best I dont know, I see a bright red one regularly and if you threw a United Logo Wrap across the front of it - it might look good.

funcat Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 It is a very "flashy" color,but still looks good in some certain light conditions....it's the matter of choice of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gideon Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 What do you find the nicest colour for either WT or XLT? Sparkling gold looks pretty awesome for the XLT. and for the WT chilli orange I'd say.... Orderd a 4 door sparkling gold XLT hi-rider Only 3 months to go (if BKK doesn't flood again).

skybluestu Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I just put my Ford in for the first service at 10K. Costing me 4,000 baht for a old change and filter. I will do the next one myself. Hopefully they will give me my white plates today I was told to take my Ranger in for the first service at either 9mnths or 15,000kms, whichever came first. Just booked it in for next week as got it Jan 5th and was told it will cost approx 2000baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ungabunga Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Following on from my earlier post, here's the part number for Ford Ranger remote key fob (blank) should anyone want to order as a replacement/spare; Description: Key Blank P/No : UCY0 584GX They'll give you the blank, then you have to go and get it cut/copied by yourself then return it to Ford to have them code it.

Spoonman Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Ahhhh Bt.4000 for a blank key fob. Be interesting to know the all in price for one with a key and coded to the vehicle. the Bt20,000 I mentioned above is the all in price to have a useable key fob.

bkkjames Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) Well I saw an XLT in Black in Silom a few month back and thought it looked very nice. At lunch today, I saw a 3.2 WT in all black including windows on Silom and stand by my saying - it is the 'right stuff' - looked like it was gonna lift its leg and piss all over the Vigo next to it. Sorry Transam, hope that wasnt you. Edited September 27, 2012 by bkkjames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Transam, hope that wasnt you. I agree, and sometimes I wish I'd got black rather than white. The black out on the front bumper looks a bit odd to me from some angles. Maybe I'll paint it white.

I've got the black and it's sun of a b@@@h to keep clean. Yes, when it's clean it looks far better IMHO to all the other colors, but keeping it clean it has to be washed every 2 days. I think the Wildtraks are starting to flow freely now. I have started to see way more on the roads within the last month. The white is now my favorite color (I know I've already made my bed, but I think you always want what you haven't got ;-) The white Wildtrak would look far better if the hadn't used 3 colors. I mean if they'd just stuck to white and all the rest black and not used the gray, or just the white and gray and not used the black. I think that's what lets it down. Easy fix for that though, get down to you local sticker place, and get them to wrap the parts that you don't like.

Wouldn't recommend it, looked awful I see no point in that stuff. I guy in my condo had one of those 2 seater merc sportscars new red plated 7 million baht versions with that on it on the hood and various other places. Took a nice car and made it look like something Ashley Cole would drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
