hey everyone
after waiting for awhile to find a decent car, i finally got an EB II wagon on monday. ill post more pics up when i can actually take some decent ones. i payed just on $3000 for her. Done 250,000 kms but still very strong and so damn tidy on the inside. still gotta get a few things sorted out with it and my first mod will be an alarm (2 cars stolen in a week from my street and my colt was nearly broken into as well) what is a good alarm but aint realy gonna cost an arm and a leg? cheers dan

Good alarms can be had from $300 installed.
Clean looking wagon there mate. Not sure if your looking to mod it straight away but heres my list (not that anyone gives 2 rats *****) 1) Clear front indicators 2) EL tail lights 3) Tint 4) superlow fronts/lowering blocks

Welcome to the club dan, looks like a very clean wagon you have there.
By the way, your first mod (the alarm), is a very smart one Steve |

Welcome to the forums!
That's a very tidy wagon you've got there, you've made a good purchase. An alarm is an excellent idea for a first mod! I thought that since it's an EBII it'd have Smartlock (& hence an alarm)? Get some E-Series stickers for those rear 1/4 windows : (I should get some for my rear doors myself) I'd keep the amber indicators though but that's just me -Dave- |

That is a great looking wagon. It looks like it's been well looked after. The red stripe (s/xr style) in the side mouldings sure beats the standard white GLi ones. An alarm is a good idea. The cost to install it is nothing compared to having your car stolen and having it destroyed (as is often the case). Enjoy some good drives in the wagon.

thanks for all the replies. There are a few little scratches on it but they arent really noticable. i still have a fair bit of money saved and from my loan to spend on it. i want to get it running really well and have it lookin great before anything else is done (need to get the smartlock remote working). the rideheight will change as its embarrassing having it next to my dad's EB XR6 lol.
clear indicators will be done as soon as i can get some. tinting is a must as its parked in the sun most of the day when im at work. then some new wheels and so forth......... cheers dan
