MARKET ANALYSIS
XT (1968 to 2014)

The Ford Falcon XT nameplate serves as a bookend for the model's history, representing both the classic chrome era of the 1960s and the modern fleet era of the 2000s. Globally, the original XT series was produced from 1968 to 1969, while the modern XT base-model trim returned for the BA, BF, and FG series between 2002 and 2014. In the 2026 Australian market, a divide exists in value: the classic 1968 XT Falcon has surged in desirability as a vintage cruiser, with market values for a clean sedan ranging from $28,000 to $45,000 AUD, while the iconic XT GT—the first "regular production" GT—can fetch between $95,000 and $160,000 AUD. Conversely, the modern BA-FG XT sedans remain the ultimate high-liquidity "workhorses," with values sitting between $5,500 and $14,500 AUD depending on whether they house the bulletproof 4.0L Barra engine. The buyer pool is split between baby boomer collectors hunting for 60s nostalgia and budget-conscious enthusiasts seeking a reliable rear-wheel-drive platform for daily duties or "Barra-swapping" projects. Locally, liquidity is highest for the FG series (2008–2014) in Silver or White, as 2026 buyers prioritise their 5-star ANCAP safety ratings and superior fuel efficiency compared to earlier V8 iterations.
