You should also consider the upper NSW area's... in NSW there are alot stricker rules applying to vehicle roadworthyness... so generally the cars are alot better in condition than QLD cars :P

Thats the spirit Brent. Cant beat the sound of a V8. I've seen a few around car yards lately. I'll keep an eye out for ya. You should probably still expect to pay around 16-17 for a decent one though

Mate if I were you I'd be prepared to fly to the car and drive back, other wise you'll end up waiting 6 months like I did.
