Limited Edition Sports Coupe produced by Holden/GMC.

Car is perfect in every way with regular servicing (full log books and major service just completed) and perfect maintenance.

Car is mechanically perfect with no flaws and is strong and reliable. For a V8 car is entirely fuel economical managing a consistant 14.2l per 100kms (70L & Approx. $80 to fill with BP Ultimate) tank which is more fuel efficient than my wifes 2007 Suzuki Swift.

Mechanical upgrades include a factory enhanced braking upgrade consisting of the "Harrop Big Brake Upgrade" which entales New Harrop 8 pot calipers up front & New Harrop 4 pot calipers at the rear, New Harrop 330mm Cross Drilled Rotors at front & New Harrop 300mm Cross Drilled Rotors at the rear, Harrop Performance Brake Pads & New larger more durable/stronger brake lines. This means the cars braking power is quite ferocious if necessary and can stop on a dime if required making the car safety level even higher.

Another mechanical upgrade is a Pacemaker Header & Exhaust system which increases the flow of the exhaust gases & increases performance due to less restriction.

Final mechanical upgrade is sports suspension which is almost standard yet has Holden upgraded shocks to improve handling at speed.

The exterior is factory standard with Quicksilver paint which is protected and waxed using Mcguires products every 3 months to ensure no fading and lengthen the life of the Standard paintwork. Standard 18" Monaro Alloy Rims which provide mroe than adequate area for traction with new tyres installed very recently.

Car is washed at least once a week as i am meticulous and quite retentive/obsessive with cleanliness.

The Interior is also standard black leather on all four electric bucket seats and door inserts. Suede is sewed into the kick panels and the bottom half of the dash to accentuate the clean lines and comfortable interior.

Interior is cleaned, wiped down and vacuumed at least once a week as i am meticulous and quite retentive/obsessive with cleanliness.

Interior is conditioned in Meguires leather cleaner/protecter/conditioner to keep interior looking fresh and new every 3 months

Car has been kept in prestine condition & Interior and Exterior has been left Factory/Standard with few mechanical upgrades (most from factory options) as the car is a limited edition and is no longer in production.

As the car is limited edition, depreciation will not affect this car much at all (Monaros havnt dropped more than $1200 in the past 2 years - A Fact that can be retrieved from the RTA or Redbook for a small Fee)

All mechanical inspections welcomed and will performed if buyer is genuine.

Reason for sale is looking to downgrade as i am moving to Canberra Federal Police Academy for work overseas & will require a smaller car for travel to & from Wollongong & wouldnt like to put excessive kms on such a car.

If you have any queries or further questions i am available days (work most nights but will endevour to answer calls/SMS/e-mails) and willing to have car inspected first hand with possible test drives to genuine buyers.

NOT ENCUMBERED OR ON REVS. No money is owing against this vechicle at all.

Will trade with:

- Honda S2000

- Nissan 350Z

- S15 (90BRO Is Perfect)

Possibly Consider Trade with: (prefer show than go)

- RX7 FD

- R34 (MR R34 - I Wish)

- R33 (WEAPN or 2 WIN - I Wish)

- S14a (Fibermotive - I Wish)

All PM's replied and questions about trades:

- Willing to meet half way if the car is right

- Cash adjustments is possible and will be fair for both parties

- Cars of particular interest are in the thread and are S2000 & 350Z

I have had a few people ask me about the fuel consumption and if i have made a mistake.

To confirm i have takena photo of my on board fuel consumption and my wifes suzuki swift which is basically new. They are the same. A V8 and a 4 cylinder the same is madness but Monaros are quality cars.

  • 3 weeks later...

Nice Monaro!

Probably not practical due to distance but let me know if you're interested in dealing with my R34 (see link) and we'll worry about that then.

If not then good luck with the sale.

Mark.

Yeah it is, i thought i fixed it on this site, my apologies, could have been bost.

CV8 is litres per 100kms and Swift is kms per litre

So for your Monaro travelling 100KM, your swift actually does 198KM...

So your swift is doing 7.05L/100km... :P

I would have considered a swap on it, but I can't live with 14L/100km daily...

Nice car though... I have seen it before... Friends with Owen... :D

Thanks for the offer but i am looking for something a little bit different, appreciate your time though.

MBS206

Car can chew the fuel if you have a heavy right foot on the loud pedal, i am kind to my cars and i miss my old skyline that owen has, such a hot car.

A full tank gets me 3 weeks of travel so it is the most fuel economical car i have ever owned so i have no complaints with it. So damn comfortable too with the lounges in there.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
