symsy Posted 31August, 2017 Report Share Posted 31August, 2017 Seems like a good deal, but for perspective......I bought my first home in 1990 - eastern suburbs of Melbourne, 4 bedrooms, in ground pool, was under $90k; that home is probably close to $1M now....Yeh, but can you do burnouts in it? 1996 bought by TT for 247k -- could have translated well into property , havent quite done the burnouts maybe I should I think the enthusiasts award probably goes to those that really do a shit load of cash in ownership…damn my cars probably bounced back to 247I have done a few tyres though!

Dreamr Posted 31August, 2017 Report Share Posted 31August, 2017 Now I know we touched on the "madness" of paying $2.4m for number plates in another thread, and the following isn't a car for sale, but am I that out of touch with the price of "things"????

MFX Posted 31August, 2017 Report Share Posted 31August, 2017 Yeh, but can you do burnouts in it? Depends on how wide the sliding doors go, other wise ride a motorbike in and get your burn out on Scott930 and firstone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

symsy Posted 31August, 2017 Report Share Posted 31August, 2017 Cars any? Or should be just start a no cars for sale thread? My suggestion is, offer 50% on anything you consider to be worth buying, attach a summary of our economy review as foundation for your offer and then report back what you have purchased. If you are called to negotiate, go up 10%. Thats how you create traffic and get the market moving again.. stock will turn over, prices will be followed and fall to what is being paid..instead of the stalemate we of longtime stock and overpricing.This used to be a good tactic deployed in the share market when I was at the bank, we would seed the change and create market. michel and scashin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eg Turbo means singular to many (not everyone a car nut) and I'm not into bi's . Had one of these B5 S4's and a 996tt. What do you drive, "996 turbo or b5 s4". So only one turbo in those cars. Nah try x4. 996 TT or twin turbo b5 s4 is just more factual. when it comes to being more honest with you boost junky status. Plus in this word of 140 character responses and TLCBFR, 996TT is a few characters shorter Edited 1September, 2017 by smit2100 Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
