BF MK FPV continued...............

For BF MK II, FPV added two new models to the lineup, the Force 6 and Force 8, both slanted toward luxury.

To be frank, the Force models were a parts bin special. The only bespoke exterior parts were the rear lip spoiler and chrome accents on the fog lamps and side skirts. The wheels were the standard GT item, just painted in a slightly darker silver. The chrome wing mirror caps were from the Fairlane. The rear number plate reflectors and valance were from the Fairmont Ghia.

Inside, rather than the FPV spec seats, the Force models had Fairmont Ghia seats with adjustable pedals. Buyers could choose the standard Dark Charcoal leather trim, or the lovely NCO Regency Red leather that was unique to Force, sadly, most didn't choose it. There was also unique woodgrain trim on the dash and door spears.

Mechanically, the Force models were identical to the rest of the F6 and GT lineup and the premium 6-piston brakes were optional.

The Force range was limited to Winter White, Silhouette, Lightning Strike, Ego, DeJuVu, Neo and Vixen (very rare). I would happily have a Force 8 in DeJuVu with the Regency Red interior.
