Ok, I know cars are generally more expensive over here, but thats waaaay too much.

I know its got the roll cage, and funky stickers, but to me, it seems thats what you're paying the extra 5k for...

Good luck with selling that

thank you onesix!
Thought I was the only one wondering if he'd accidentally the milage in where the price shouldve been.
I hear you can buy a house in Oz for less than that.

Good Reg on it.
Rest garbage.IMHO.

Ya don't make rally cars out of 5doors if 3 drs are available.

not unless you have to drop your rally-kids off at rally-school every morning, then stpop off to do the rally-shopping on your way to a hard days rallying.

Then those extra doors'd really prove essential.

I think you are confusing a Chelsea tractor and a rally car there.
Believe me ya sharp get sick o' driving a rally car round town.
Rackety,uncomfortable,won't idle,won't pull away without kicking the clutch etc.etc...........
PIA the whole thing.
I'd rather get the bus.

You aren't wrong there!!! - ridiculously uncomfortable for driving round town in and driving in heavy traffic is a nightmare!!

Looks like he's done absolutely nothing to it! Probably has baffled sump, killswitches, new clutch, rebuilt box, rollcage. That car even has the same exact battery as I have. Looks like it has raised shocks, probably custom springs. I'll try and ring him tomorrow.

At least I'm trying to put a audi/porsche/alfa transaxle in mine!

Post by **SteveP** » 09 Dec 2008 12:15 pm

Not alot done to that! 360's have baffled sumps as standard, dont they?

Post by **volvosneverdie** » 09 Dec 2008 01:09 pm

I think those stickers must have been very very expensive 'special edition' stickers eh?

still. At least they'll make the car go faster and handle a bit better.

Post by **Jason B** » 09 Dec 2008 09:14 pm

I wouldn't use it for more than rallying to the supermarket tbh, it looks like its had nothing done to it other than stickers and seat covers

- is that "cage" just a roll-over hoop?

on second glance it looks like it is a rear cage...
