why dont yas do a mock swap for a while...like swap cars for a week and then decide? you might find you hate driving it after a while or find little quirks about the ute that ya dont like...or you could love it, the same goes with ya mate.

Chris mate, would you be using the ute for transporting goods ect, because remember theres only room for you and one other in the cab.
If the shoe was on my foot id be looking for an AU XR sedan. Will you end up coming out infront money wise (resale price) with the swap? At the end of the day its upto you and your mate |

You should sell me your body kit, and subs because theres no room really for em in the ute, and im chasing a body kit.
Edit: the subs can go in the EA Also, have you thought about keeping the 18" wheels putting em on the EA and putting the 16" ones back onto the XR for the swap?? |
