Default My ute is no longer.....
As some of you are aware - my Ute has moved on to a new owner.

Current transport is now as shown.....


Specs for your info:

The 3.2-litre V6 produces 177kW of power at 6250rpm and 320Nm of torque from a low 2800rpm.

Weighing in at 1477kg, it's enough to catapult the car from 0-100km/h in 6.6 seconds and on to a top speed of 247km/h.

feel free to flame.....(it's the only chance you'll get.)

I actually liked the R32's when they first came out... now personally i feel the styling has dated, and still is... quickly...

Are you sure you would have the room to bring a fire extinguisher along in the VW? Might need a trailer.

nah, that "A" Team was a course in firing 300,000 rounds of ammo, not hitting a single person (but being able to hit a moving vehicle from another moving vehicle at 300 meters) and STILL getting beat... only to kick a whole army's with a can of hairspray, 4 pieces of wood, 3 whipper snipper blades and an oldsmobile that starts after 15 years of being used as a chicken coup. :togo:
