1998 Ford Fairlane NL Concorde - Teal Green - 299,843km - 4.0L EFI V8, Automatic
Overview
The Ford Fairlane Concorde represents a significant chapter in Australian automotive history, embodying the final generation of Ford's locally-built full-size sedan. This 1998 NL Concorde, finished in distinctive teal green, carries the marque's classic proportions and engineering heritage into the modern era. The 4.0-litre EFI V8 engine delivers genuine performance character, paired with a smooth automatic transmission that defines the Concorde's appeal as a comfortable, capable daily driver or weekend cruiser. At nearly 300,000 kilometres, this example has been well-used but remains mechanically sound and visually presentable, offering buyers an authentic piece of Australian motoring culture at a realistic price point.
The teal green paintwork presents well across all visible panels, holding good gloss with minor stone chipping evident on the bonnet leading edge, consistent with highway use. Panel alignment is straight and even, with no obvious dents or creases to the body sides or rear quarters. The interior shows wear appropriate to the vehicle's age and mileage, with the grey leather upholstery displaying expected bolster wear on the driver's seat and minor dashboard patina. The steering wheel exhibits typical wear from regular use. All four windows operate smoothly, and the sunroof functions as intended. The front passenger alloy wheel displays light kerb rash, while the remaining wheels present acceptably. The engine bay is clean and well-maintained, with fluid levels visible and accessible. Service records are present in the logbook, documenting regular maintenance intervals. The original owner's manual and additional documentation are included with the sale.
At the current market valuation of $4,500 to $6,500 for comparable 1998 Fairlane examples in similar condition, this Concorde represents fair value for a genuine Australian classic with V8 performance and automatic convenience. The combination of the larger-capacity EFI V8, full-size sedan practicality, and documented service history positions this vehicle as an accessible entry point for buyers seeking authentic 1990s Australian motoring character without the premium pricing of earlier, rarer variants.
