Craig, it needs full leather!!!

Have you thought about going to the Government Auctions or even Pickles?

I have had a few mates who have taken home some sick bargains from both places!

VY/VZ/VE's, BA's, newish Camerys, Avalons etc can be had from the Gov auctions for cheap. And who knows what you find at Pickles!

Just a thought?

the link sled posted was the gov auctions i was talking about

theres a vz commo wagon on there with just over 13,000km on the clock!

friends dad bought a ex-cop car ve for stuff all ill ask him what he got it for when i see him

yeah I've had a Prado.....brilliant truck and great fun in the dirt, beach and outback.

I've lost count how many cars I've bought from the Netley auctions over the years and always very cheap with low kms and still under new car warranty (was buying 1 or 2 per year a little while ago for work).

The current work car that I use came from their auctions, on LPG, 18mths old, 30,000km, $14K (still under new car warranty)....Brand new it was $35K!!

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
