Falcon fancier

I'M THINKING of buying a BA Falcon with an LPG-dedicated engine from the factory. Do these have the same diff and cooling problems as the XR6? Are they basically a reliable, good family car?

THEY don't suffer the diff problems that affected the XR6, most likely because their drivers aren't so hard on the gas pedal. Overall they're OK, but Falcons of that era appear to suffer from problems with the automatic transmission cooler, rusted panels and other build-quality issues.
