It was a some one on a test drive at Booran Holden, not the sale guy. It was a young bloke and well that was the end result. It happened across the road fron a mates place in Bundoora.

what the crap?

You'd have to have a bloody ramp to get the car that high and land on top of other cars.

Ill take the car though. Could find a nice little spot for the ls1 and gear box....And no I dont mean as a boat anchor.

And that poor beamer...
