Well, well, well......
With help from some friends and through a direct communication with Ford I found out that for some unknown reason to mankind, they changed the part number recently from :
ERN42210AKT
to,
BAF42210ACJV
BUT, that is not the only thing they did. The price to start with during 2003 was $110.00(incl GST).
BUT, the exuberant price they are asking now for the exact same product is:
Are you sitting down???
Hold on to your pants......Here we go.....
A whooping $440.00(incl. GST).
Looks like an insane JOKE.
:
Obviously marketing and economy is not Ford staffs forte.
They couldn't sell these spoilers when they were asking $110.00, so they dropped them from their list of genuine accessories.
Then they were left with some in their stock.
Instead of keeping the same price or having them on sale to get rid of them and use the space for some faster moving items. They are asking 4 times more hoping they can gain some of the loses and stock keeping cost this way.....
Well, keep on dreaming.....
We also found that you can buy a Rear Top Spoiler for a VW GTI, for $235.00 plus shipping.
Which looks exactly like the one sold by Ford but this one is made out of Carbon Fibre.
Luckily the hatch on the VW has the same width as Ford Wagon’s.
