Believe there has been a fair amount of interest in it. Seeing as you dirty rotten virus ridden mainlanders can't come and have a look easily, if anyone is seriously contemplating this car, and wants more info, detailed pictures etc, let me know. As I'm on the Board of Directors for the museum I do get some special privileges which may prove useful 😁 I’ve had a fair few of my Tassie customers call me something very similar 🤣🤣 TwoHeadsTas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stepo Posted 27July, 2020 Report Share Posted 27July, 2020 And they did that under slippery conditions! Gearbox copped a hiding in a lot of those gear changes, I suppose their mantra is to rebuild the box and gearbox after every outing tomo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeebus that thing is fast 😳 And rally drivers are off their fkn heads certifiable Seconded. Absolutely mesmerising and terrifying at the same time! Love the boxy cars from that era. There is a Renault 5 Turbo 2 RHD on and off carsales the last 6 months that I keep going back to. Not quite the same but also a bit left field I have just discovered the Toyota Blade Master G which is basically a 07-12 Corolla... where Toyota boffins decided to shoehorn the 2GR-FE engine into the front. For those not familiar with Toyota engine codes, it is a 3.5 litre V6! Can be now imported to Australia for only around 10-12K and possibly the ultimate sleeper? Mum's Corolla hatch with a 206KW V6!

This is on (or very near) the limit of the car and road on much more technical stages. Plenty more where this came from. 2:00 min mark bends my mind every time. luzzo, Dalai, DT and 5 others 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely can't be Oz del, and in proper nick would be around $250 - $300 with those k's if genuine. That's why I thought Jap or SA or other import and still very low priced.
