wow thats actually in really good shape ...

What's your opinion on the corolla atm?

it seems to drive well, only problems are

Right brake light not working

Dash - top half of the plastic is missing

Cracked headlights on the front

Aircon not working

It needs a CV Joint

That model DOES have a left side mirror so will need to put one on

Passenger windows winder thingo

The immobiliser he may be able to pay for ...

I also found a radiator hose and timing belt in the booth .. :s

Should I pass it back to him or just try and get him to pay for the immobiliser if hes willing?

That civic (red one in my list) was alright, good shape and all ... but a bit too new i like old cars LOL

the auto 88 corona is pretty nice, good interior and all .. HAS AIRCON

the celica is sporty and quite cool

cant decide if i should return the rolla and try for one of those (bet half of em are sold knowing my luck) or just stick to my rolla and get the immobiliser on

Yeah the things wrong with the car are not big problems though I should fix the brake light asap

He did say he was willing to take the car back as he didnt know the actual age of the car and so just randomly put 1980 so he said that was his bad .. if i return the car/get the immobiliser on i'd pay for half of it I reckon cos he was real fair to me and stuff so yeah

voted for corolla johnno.have owned three.2 78's and a 79.reliable,easy to work on.speeding car hit me and the rolla's chassis saved my life.plus got $500 bucks for the motor after the car was munched.+1 ke rolla

you could get that red civic james? it was pretty good imo im just not into civics ..

richard - id love a KE corolla, their all gone though, the one i saw was 800 bucks for very little ...

Currently mainly considering a 89 Celica/88 Corona (auto :( ) or my 86 Corolla Sedan ATM which may or may not be returned to owner tomorrow unless he wants to chip in for the immobiliser

I'll let you guys know tomorrow what happened to the car!

Maybe I should hold up for a really good KE Corolla or something ...

I want something to play with in my uni break though! thats only 2 weeks away .. and I should study for exams now actually ...

Bob the bunky is gone

I asked the owner if he wanted to go halves on the immobiliser, he said he'd rather just wait until the car was 25 years old and didnt need an immobiliser anymore so we swapped back confused.gif

Yeah I think he also said something about the car he was gonna buy had a major problem so he would need a car anyway so it actually worked out well .. im thinking of spending a bit more .. mayb sumthing with aircon for my pampered ass thumbsup.gif

Did KE corollas have A/C?

Ah ok, makes sense haha.

And no lol, no AC.

I just checked out a suzuki swift tonight, no AC no PS no central locking, no tacho, no EW.

Car was immaculate though lol. 1.3L carby and all.

$1850, pretty damn tempted cause its that good... Even though missing lots of luxuries...

Decision time..

    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
