So jumping back on the FWD topic.
From friends experiences, I would not touch anything french.
Golfs...well are for golf drivers.
I did look at a HSV VRX, however put off by the whole HSVness of it.
XR5's every one I looked at does not have Cruise.
Same for EP3 civic the only honda I would own.
Fiesta St is out of the range I want to spend if I'm going that high I will go some more and get a BMW 135i
The only one that I would seriously contemplate is the R53 Mini Cooper S always liked them.
Not touching a 75 Crown.
I'm working on a seller for a early 70's Jap car as it is for weekends,
Will be slow but it's factory pink so that makes up for it.
100% original, manual, 1 owner, genuine Barn Find.
honestly it was my first though as well, only as I know 34's have gone up too much.
however I need to be able to leave it at train stations/airport parking.
and we all know how long that lasts.
So thoughts on a cheap daily
the ute is just using too much fuel and is impossible to park inner city
im thinking 10k but needs to be a bit fun
so turbo manual and not fwd
but it still has to have cruise as my commute to work does involve 100km of freeway
cannot be thief bait else would have got an r or s chassis
im leaning towards a g4 liberty gt or a g3 wrx
what are some other thoughts
(sorry to ask car question)
yeah and it seems to be working.
the few friends I have who still smoke are also the ones on the lowest income.
All are trying to give up, so the idea works but I was still shocked.
PJ gold rich thank you very much.
but on a more serious note I've never smoked so not really aware of pricing.
Mate asked me to pick him up a packet on the way to his place the other day,
30 pack of PJ gold rich (thus why i knew they were a thing)
From BWS $45
seriously WTF when did that happen.
it's nearly dead in here these days hit up the sauvic and the sau facebook pages for better results.

there are a couple more GTR only ones, but i don't have details for them.
so the OEM brakes on it were too small so they put one of those fake big brake covers on it to hide the tiny ones.
some-one (smartly) removed it at some stage
so yeah it is the real car, it's just of all the cars in the show that prob the lease attractive to own, 2l NA auto....

I had this once, 3 leave requests over 12 months rejected as we were short staffed.
then had HR come and complain to me that I had too much leave outstanding.
was fun watching the 2 argue, but I got rid of that boss 6 months later.
it must be 2 doors, and not sure if skylines will work on farm tracks to tow stuff out.
(he is a country small motor mechanic so has to go out to farms and pick up pumps/mowers and such.)
So the commo wagon is perfect for the job.
this is def for skids,
he ran his Monaro at a bunch of go to who's and motokana's and got a nice collection of prizes but it's gone up in value too much and he wants to park it up.
has a Commo for a daily and it will be locked off street every night.
this one is kinda jumping out as he likes the Nismo body kit (and has a friendly RWC guy)

he's wanted a R34 for ages and now the kids have left school and got jobs he decided has some money for "another" toy car.
so mate is finally jumping to JDM. parking up his HQ monaro.
where's the best place to go looking for a R34 GT-T these days?
carsales, gumtree, facebook, ???
