Hey,
In the next few weeks i am planning on buying an EF-EL falcon and i have been using the following three sites to browse for a suitable one to look at and possibly buy, www.tradingpost.com.au www.carsales.com.au www.carpoint.com.au As i am after a manual but dont want an XR (for insurance reasons) i am only getting a few cars coming up when i search for a manual non-XR. Because of this i was wondering if anyone could add to the list of similar sites above to help me find more cars fitting this criteria. Also, if anyone on here knows of someone wanting to sell a manual EF-EL could you possibly PM me the sellers and the cars details. Thanks for any help :eclipsee_ |

do you have any local classifieds? For example over here in the west we have the quokka which is great for finding cars.

We have the trading post which i dont get any more any way cause they have the website. Other than that theres the saturday paper that has an automotive liftout with classifieds, isnt nearly as good as the trading post though.

Just how much more expensive is it to insure an XR?
I could sell you mine otherwise :(. |

Ahh yes,
I remeber my first insurance on the XR6 being $1720 for full comp. I'm now safely under the grand mark (just) at 24 years. |
