Jamezilla Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Well. It had to happen eventually. Golgo has been sold He will be moving to South Australia with a nice new owner late next week. *sniff Feeling a bit bummed by it all - so help cheer me up by posting your favourite memory, recolection - or even picture of the mighty purple assassin. This one sums it up for me: James Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/93647-golgo-golgone/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Oizo Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 The main thing is, you had fun. So, moving onto bigger and better things? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/93647-golgo-golgone/#findComment-1690970 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamezilla Posted November 4, 2005 Author Share Posted November 4, 2005 Thanks for reminding me... At the moment there are no plans for a replacement. I'll probably get something much bigger and slower first. Ideally with a back yard. That said... a man cannot live by bread alone, and I'm sure having the choice of a crappy Lada or a crappier Lada will wear thin soon enough. I will certainly keep you all informed Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/93647-golgo-golgone/#findComment-1690995 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interloper Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Hi James, my favorite memory of golgo was when i was following you on the way back from the GOR cruise. The huge flames it spat out on gear change was something of a highlight on the way back thanks for the memories I hope you buy a replacement GTR soon and it better be a R34 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/93647-golgo-golgone/#findComment-1691024 Share on other sites More sharing options...

James told me they are the pics when GOLGO was going up on the dyno for "flame" run (First pic on thread ) 1st pic does make GOLGO seem like an assisin comming out of the dark lol After seeing all the riced up cars at the Autosalon, Then seeing golgo squeezing through people in the showroom with its gruntin engine i went to my friend and said, "Now thats a real car" Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/93647-golgo-golgone/#findComment-1691151 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NS2500 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 No!!! Ah well, I know how long you've been trying to sell him. Congratulations to the new owner, Golgo is one fine machine - even if he was always the "town bike" I always liked this shot - James I owe you a 30x20in print for all those times you let me borrow him - if you can remember a favourite shot let me know: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/93647-golgo-golgone/#findComment-1691875 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammus Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 i always liked this picture. it shows how very practical GTRs can be seeing as it's an interstate buyer, you'll be left with the plates... will there be a new golgo?

Mavric Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 This is some of the saddest news this year... James we all know you have been wanting to sell the beast for a while, but it's a shame it had to go interstate.. You can always remember the memories that GTR has given you… Hope the new owner enjoys it as much as you have and that the Lada begins to bring as much joy to you as what Golgo has given you… Just a small picture from the GOR cruise. Will never forget you pulling Golgo out at the back of the pack and stopping all traffic for us to all pull out… for some reason Golgo would be the only car that would get away with that and never get tooted In saying that congratulations James on the sale and hopefully something bigger at better will appear in the near future.

Bec Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 - a sad day indeed. The countdown of my favourite memories include: 3. Golgo getting trapped in the garage for several days until the nice locksmith came to his resuce. Cmon - it was funny as. 2. Screeching to a holt on the GOR cruise as we were too busy looking at the scenary to realise everyone else had stopped - at least you know the brakes worked!!! 1. You and Jeremy (in Golgo) and Snowy and me (in the REX) racing around Winton for what anyone would have thought were sheepstations!!! Anyhoo - he was a beast and will be sadly missed. Let's just hope the new owner enjoys him as much as and you and everyone else who was lucky enough to score a drive. That said - TURBO LADA here we come!!!!!
