Spotted a sweet looking white Stag with black graphics down the side and got a bit of a wave this arvo in the North-eastern area.

Yeah which Mazda dealer do you work for Bec? The CX7 is not too bad .... I much prefer the build quality and after-sales support of Hondas, but might have my arm twisted if a premium black with black leather CX7 came up with under 30,000km at the right price.

Guys, unfortunately the wife wants a bigger SUV style car (for children transportation), so V35 sedan and Stag are out (she currently has a Honda Accord Euro Lux, which we bought new).

Spotted a black 33 gtr on flagstaff hill road, at about 7.20am whilst i was on the bus. Had some sexy rims on it too.

and a silver 34, with gold BBS rims, parked on pirie street, at about 12pm or so.. XLJ- something

the stag is out? really? The M35 would be longer than the CRV. So the horizontal space would be more in the stag...whereas the CRV has more vertical space. If you dont like stacking things (and your kids aren't 3m tall) then you'll possibly have more usable space in the stagea. It'll even take a rear-facing baby seat no worries at all :D

As for rear seat room, its more cramped sitting 3 people in the back of my in-laws' toyota prado than my M35 stagea. And I can fit more in the boot without anything getting squashed. Not sure of the dimensions of the CRV but most of these 4WDs are actually smaller widthways and lengthways than a stagea.

Anyways, I'll take my "stagea fanboi" hat off now and leave you alone... :)

nah she doesn't want a real 4wd - just a pretend little one that is bigger than a sedan, but not so big as to be a bugger to drive around. Even the CRV is not that comfortable for long trips compared to the Accord Euro, so she is rethinking a bit. I am working on her for something like a Grange .... bigger than the Euro, but still a normal car, rather than a big clunky 4wd. We often do interstate trips (Warrnambool and Great Ocean Rd this Xmas), so really want some serious comfort. And she NEEDS all the important things that the Euro has like leather seats, moon roof, seat heaters, auto headlights, auto windscreen wipers, etc etc.

Dont do it mate, better off getting a Caprice. Highly inflated HSV prices for not a real lot more. Im with Bec, go a CX-7 or CX-9 Andrew

      If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
