Hi all,
Got anxious last week and wanted my own car again (got a company car and just sold my EF) so thought Id try something different and ring the local taxi mobs seeing if they had any ba's coming out of contracts. Got a call back yesterday about a white au with 600K and factory gas just made its last call this morning. Bit hesitant at first with him saying $2000, so went around today and thought I'll offer him $1500 no higher but when I saw it its gotta be one of the best nick taxi's getting around. Went back to the office and said right $1500 I give you cash monday, but he wouldnt budge so eventually said fine $2000. Dont have any pics as of yet but its got a year rego, factory gas, good nick, head unit still works and cloth interior, no major dings or scratches. So scored a little bargain I think, cars are still expensive in tassie well more so then the mainland but god cant wait to start the mods, got a few options though so what do other AU owners reckon? Option 1 - Purposeful Spotlights mounted on the roof Roobar and spotties on the front CB radio and all the rest This is because Im going to take it to qld and back at the end of the year and those things will be useful and I do a lot of night driving on the highway 200km every 2nd friday then 200km home so spotties would be great Option 2 - Nice (already have the materials for most of these) 18 inch mags lowered ba xr6 spoiler Stripes? I remember seeing a cobra mockup that wasnt too bad and cheap to do Respray Exhaust (is it ok to go bigger more flowing exhaust on gas?) And a secondary gas tank but stil have to find out about that and $ wise So so glad to finally have an au, wont miss e series head gaskets thats for bloody sure |
