I might actually buy one for a train station hack.

It's more logical as it would unlock circa $8k equity from the golf and it would most likely be more comfortable, faster, have the same features, (i.e. none) be manual and I would honestly feel more confident that it won't die one day.

I haven't driven the golf anywhere but the train station even once for over 12 months now so a $10k car is just a waste and the gheyness is lineball

 

If only I could motivate myself enough to sell the POS. :/



I'm currently riding around in my 03 Honda Accord Euro Luxury... got it for half your Golf. Definitely something to consider ;)

2.4k back this tax year not too bad..  had to depreciate fair few things 

ppl in wasteland still go to deca? 

I can't do mine yet as Medibank f**ked up and I won't get my statement until 31/07/2016 at the earliest.

This is especially infuriating as:

1) They have sent Merowyn's and it's a joint f**king account.

2) They have now sent me 2 letters telling me they can't send me a letter

How the f**k do I fit a fire extinguisher in the beamjet without damaging shit?

Self Tappers. In the dash, across the airbag flap.

Your engine going to be done by 2020?

If I'm lucky. Lawrence, Ads and Shadz were helping me give him shit on Saturday. If the car isn't done before the end of the year he's gotta buy me lunch for a month

I don't reckon any of that paint protection is worth it. Just get a detailer to do a good correction polish on it and wax it regularly.

You'll move that thing on before the paint is fked anyway.

I was of the same opinion, albeit without ever having researched the subject at all... I just assumed they'd just wash off etc but from everyone I've spoken to that has or has had it, they rate it..

Did you sus out any of his detailing photos? I looked at the blue mustang and black maloo photos and couldn't work out if he's not that good or just an average photographer..

They'll sell you their own. They applied paint protection to our 86 and I did not think it was worth it. From memory we got them to fix it up cause a few days after some tar crap landed on the bonnet and the paint protection shit went all weird.

    • 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.
