Well, that didnt last too long frown

The cerb will be up for sale from the weekend, on the plus side the reason behind the sale is we are emigrating to Australia!
However, having just cleaned her and fired her up the thought of moving to a non car loving country is less appealing, we went over last week on a recce trip and everybody drives slowly and has an automatic car which is either a ute or a 4x4......nice as they can sound they are not a proper British tree killing, pensioner scaring sports car. Help me.

I am sad weeping

I would love to and believe me i am looking for a solution but i need to have lived with the car for twelve months before importing it, which i havent done. It also looks like it will cost a fair few $, by a fair few i mean bloody thousands, which again isnt ideal! I saw one guy with i think a tuscan which had cost £15000 to import, this would require divorce and ebaying of offspring....

Take it with you...I agree.

You can always drop a (Holden) LS engine in it when it goes wrong. I got mine from Australia....

They look quite good actually, as long as its not an Aussie auto!

Heres some pics of how my car stands, not so much of a shameless plug but more of a reminder to myself of the work i have put into it, the only other time i put some pics up was straight after i bought it and its changed a fair bit! feel free to bash it....i like it though. cry












Please dont delete the pics mods, theyre just for general perusal and not a plug for the car, i havent even put a for sale ad up!
