probably why they gave us 5 years free. I just use it for the airport services and free gig tickets. Although I've always wanted to test out that 100k's breakdown offer they have. Not that we've ever had to use it. I think the only time my old man had a legit reason to call em was coz he left his lights on and the battery ran flat.

I equate owning a golf to owning a corolla. Buying a Seat would be the same as an Excel. If bob jane made wheels that looked as nice and had the same features I'd be rockin it non stop. They don't. lol alex, I actually built lexus' website back in 2007, and as part of my package my old man now rocks complimentary Encore for the next 3 (and has had for the past two) years on his GS 430. Come at me bro.

they also charge you just as well. holden breaks down? walk into the nearest servo/repco/supercheap/bunnings and buy the spare parts.

audi's and beemer's are the falcons and commodores of europe, furreals. VW's are the toyotas (they sell a shitload, and are just simple, easy to use, mechanically resilient cars). Anyone who think's they're luxury is delusional and needs to get their head checked. It may work on your average bogan who's never needed to apply for a passport cos he reckons Albury is going too far away, but seriously, get yourself some perspective. Same goes for any assmonkey that thinks Lexus is value for money. The Toyota Altezza was half the price and twice as feature rich as the IS200 or IS300, just because globalisation wasn't as prelevant back in the day, doesn't mean it still has to be right now. Stop swinging on history and archaic thinking's nuts, and wake up to the fact that we live in a global economy that drives a global playing field. The more you pillocks let dealers convince you that something is worth paying a premium for because it is a "luxury item" the further you propagate the myth. Next time you meet a euro wanker, remind em that they're driving germany's falcon. Meet some middle management knobjugger that drives a Lexus 4WD? Ask him how his glorified landcruiser does offroad. Fuck off with your "luxury" bullshit. You bunch of cockjockeys also probably reply to Nigerian princes and buy speakers out of the back of white vans. Owning an Audi or Beemer is more an excuse for some prat stuck in middle management to ramble on about how much more affluent he is than the next guy. Wanna prove you can dabble in real luxury? Have a garage that resembles a member of arab royalty's. Hell, even an Aussie mine owner's garage will do. Real affluent people buy an Audi or a Beemer cos they can afford it and its quality is higher than what passes off as acceptable in Australia, then they never speak of the fact ever again, to them it's just another car. The guys who bleat on about it are usually the ones trying to prove to the world that they are worth something.

I like the bottom grille and the bonnet, not a fan of the pontiac logo or the vents on either side of it.

actually lexus gets shittier specs than toyota. only benefit of buying a lexus is standard leather. No 1JZ, no air suspension, no wagon option etc etc.

lol was for offering to stuff my dog. and also for 300zx faggotry.

lol i was wondering where mohsen was with his 2c on ford vs holden, then remembered that I banned him.

best ford on the market by far is the Mondeo, and that's FWD, which says a lot about the falcoon.

Ford high tech suspension: vs Holden high tech suspension: VE has better suspension geometry, not something that looks like it belongs in a 67 mustang. Dirty kents at Ford call it "Control Blade Independent Rear Suspension" and try and peddle it off as something good. fuck off with that neolithic cuntbaggery, two leprechauns swinging off my nuts will give me more stability than that shit. lol @ Nissans being more high tech than both by 1989.

sif. Porsche 911's doppelkupplungsgetriebe gearbox was concieved by the germans to fuck with the allies.

senator kinda looks like ass if you ask me. I'd buy a calais and bring in pontiac G8 kit from the US and slam it on 22's. bogans will all be mad jelly.

The way I see it if I was getting a tow car, I'd rather a tow car I'll enjoy driving the 90% of the time when I'm not towing rather than something that's useful for only the 10% of time I'm towing. Wouldn't buy an HSV though, will be content with a run of the mill Calais V8 or soemshit. Also lol @ MR2 driver hanging shit on build quality of an HSV. The only good thing in an MR2 is its power steering system.

stop having boring tuna. stop havin a boring life. chop chop chop chop chop. I was gonna graft a VE valence into the rear bumper, but then I found out that VE's were a different plastic to the golf ones so can't weld em together. turned out easier to just fill the whole thing in and smooth it out. would hit. I actually like the VE HSV's. They're much better sedans than the crap out of japan. They're not sports cars, but great cruisers and family cars. One day I'll probably own a VE wagon, when I get around to not pulling out in time and end up needing a pram etc. For now though, the only reason I'd buy one is if I had to tow a caravan or car trailer to the track.

after. i don't actually have any pics of em before. I completely forgot to take photos! looked like this before: I haven't cut the pieces from where the vents and exhaust cutouts were before yet.. all done in polyurathane, just like factory no bog, not putty, no fibreglass.

banned. kthxbai.

dunno what a GETDRAG gearbox is, but something tells me you're talking about a Getrag, they don't just make sequentials only either, they R34 GTR and Poopra both came with factory Getrag gearboxes. something tells me what you're after is something like this: http://www.nengun.com/ikeya-formula/sequential-shifter in action: converts your H pattern to "sequential".

did some plastic welding on the weekend with some help from one of Bez's recommendations in Cheltenham. Golf's ass will now be butter smoooooooth. none of this gaybo vent shit that the stock R32 bumper seems to have. Filler piece sourced from a VN Calais Feel dirty for having holden pieces on my car, but felt good choppin one up.

i'mma simplify that equation for you...

where was my invite bishlips?

i'm out, will be too drunk to cruise. OTOH goin to brissy on thursday if anyone wants me to take anyone up there stuff to help out.
