deposit down + big grin! (again)
Discussion
I sold my monaro about 3/4years ago and have missed it pretty much every day since then! I planned on viewing a few today but thought I would take a look at this first as it seemed a pretty good all round package.

well a couple of hours later and deposit is down. going back tomorrow to finalise paperwork hopefully....it feels dirty saying it but I've been converted, never would have thought I would ever purchase a 4 door car, always preferred the coupe shape
the glass/plastic lens that covers the lights on bumper look a little faded? anywhere I could pick up another set?

Did you have a red 'ro before?
no I had a black VXR500, the guy who bought it off me lived in Australia and garaged it here for when visiting family. But emailed him last month to try buy it back.... he's shipped it back to Aus to join his other monaro's

The fog light covers are a no go, rare as rocking horse s

the dealer did say he received lots of calls from people wanting to buy just the fog covers?! I thought he was having me on!
yeah I was thinking exactly the same thing.... I'm going to try clean them up and smoke film them if I couldn't find replacements.
