New kid on the small block

[BigNige]

How do all

Just about to buy myself a Monaro - can't believe what good value these things are!
Amazing why so many other folk don't have them!

Have had Yank tanks with the small block motor so know that they are basically reliable but would be interested in general feedback & experiences of the car.
I'll be aiming to get an '04 333 5.7 I would think.

Thanks for the warm welcome all.

The bank phoned me back yesterday to tell me the facility has been agreed - wooooot

So, on me holibols for a couple of weeks and then I am going shopping baby!

Lance Owen are doing pre-reg ones for £24.5k which is pretty damned good and if they still have any I may go down that route.

Hey Neil,

I'm in Westcliff mate.

We'll have to meet and compare power bulges.

-------------------------

Just placed an order for a red 'un with Caspy (well, he took me money anyway... )

Test drive arranged for 11 Sept (after me holibols) and hopefully pick the motah up soon afterwards.

Wooohooooo!

Had the test drive on Sunday at Greens.

Woooo hooooooo

Loads of car for the money.
Dave (Brians sidekick) is knowledgeable and we spent a pleasant hour or so thrashing up and down various country lanes etc.
Very impressed.

So, I collect the car on Saturday.
Pics to follow.

Hurrah.
