Evening all,
As per my previous post am on the hunt for another Monaro in black if possible, long story short there's a 06 ro in black come up this evening in the classifieds and am torn as what to do as was hoping to buy one with more mods on it,
On the other hand there's not a huge amount of them to choose from and could be waiting some time!and capable of doing my self over a period of time when funds allow
Dose any one no the car as it looks a nice example and hope fully that type of exhaust sounds nice/loud?
Many thanks luke

I think that cars are moving fast at the moment in the classifieds - maybe preciousmetal can confirm?
I'm looking for another at the moment (non-GM product
), and it seems that everyone else has the same idea, as good examples of what I'm after are selling within a day of being advertised.
I've resigned myself to keep an eye on the classifieds, but now don't expect to purchase now until the market cools again in the autumn.
Be patient and one will come up.

Guy selling it approached me about selling it as he bought in a sorry state a few months ago (was on ebay for ages - poor advert needing TLC), what surprises me is he still hasn't done the very chipped front paintwork and scratch.
FYI - the car used to belong to Gary (GAL001 on here) a few yrs ago who now has a nice green UTE - maybe contact him. he was offered the car back last year and he said to me he didn't buy it back as the last owner hadn't looked after it and was in a sorry state and then current owner bought it.
looks good value though and pics look good but really need to see it in the flesh, goodluck

I looked at this car last year around April time, and nearly bought it.
James is right the front end was in a sorry state and imo would need immediate paintwork. From memory it was in generally good condition apart from the front end paint, and the history file was quite good. It seems to have had more work since from the looks of it. The only thing I'd say is that it appeared to have an oil leak on it when I looked at it, this I now know to be the rear oil seal which the dealer selling it said they would fix.
The exhaust is quite loud to say the least. It is not a switchable one though, so make sure you are happy driving it at that volume all the time.
Seems to have had work done since last year, and if it was me I'd be tempted to go look.

Hello every one thanks for your help. Just wanted to update every one to say I went to view the car and bought it, was pleasantly surprised in as much it's not as bad as I thought with a lot of what you guys mentioned done,
Am pleased I got it for a good price which will enable me to get paint bits done over the coming months
Can't wait to pick it up and already researching cams lol
