D-banger Posted 24August, 2013 Report Share Posted 24August, 2013 So Doug, do we expect to see a new addition to the family..?? LOL. Nah just wanted to check it out. Yes that one Jim. For such low mileage the paintwork looked like it had been scrubbed with sandpaper. 3 delivered to Oz. 2 currently for sale. Both cars with extremely low mileage. Both appear to be destined to be looked at more than driven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I raised this issue with the salesman and he did respond that the car needed a detail...when asking $430k for a car you think that would be done prior to display. Could be the same issue as the crappy carsales pics..."Yes I'm trying to sell it darling". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Man Posted 25August, 2013 Report Share Posted 25August, 2013 Did a lesuirly early morning drive to Kinglake . As per standard I needed to battle the push bike brigade only to find the cafe in West Kinglake infested with lycra clad middle aged men. Some things just can't be unseen. The drive back was a test of patience as I struggled to understand why some people think its ok to do 80 in a 100 zone!!!! So I think a new strattegy needs to be developed. Leave early enough where there are fewer people on the road and drive far enough away, which is too far for the lycra brigade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't leave until late (10 ish) so luckily most of the mamils were heading home. Drove up thru Wandin & Warburton where i left the pelicans behind and had the Reefton Spur all to myself. What a fantastic piece of road. Ended up in Marysville and slept behind the convoy coming home :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TINGY Posted 25August, 2013 Report Share Posted 25August, 2013 Went for a run to Nelson Bay and had fish n chips on the water, fantastic weather, felt like it was 26deg or so up there. Got a park on the road in front of the marina and when I finally got back to my car some knob had parked 300mm from the front of my car. I was lucky to get out, fair dinkum some drivers need to have a look at themselves. Saw a lot of American muscle cars out today, nice.

Thanks for the invite T-man , I ended up at 4 doors coffee shop with the old man, he took his Pontiac out so I thought id take my toy along! It was hard to fit in among all the old farts and there American/Aussie muscle cars, did see a 75-76 Porsche and it had a v8 in it which was pretty interesting to see. There was an awesome 86 lambo there as well, which was pretty cool! I was going to go for a drive but I'm not liking this Melbourne weather!

T-Man Posted 25August, 2013 Report Share Posted 25August, 2013 I thought you young blokes sleep in on a Sunday because of all the partying. The crowd at 4 doors are a bit......well let's just say there are a lot of wankers there. Regardless, I would have rocked up if I knew you and your dad were there. Was that a white Porsche with the V8? MAT911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
