Mike737 Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 Congrats turbo. Looks like your going to have to go for bridge and tunnel runs in Sydney since that's what the car is accustom to. Have you started growing your hair yet?Great purchase and I'm a bit jealous. turboT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike D'Silva Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 I'm sure it will sell for a decent premium here in Aus.. especially with all the Magnus provenance. Smart buy.Well done ! turboT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 It's now your car ... MW is now consigned to been a footnote, PO.And don't go putting a faux New York loft down town LA brick wall in the carport. Or if you do at least do it with flocked wall paper.should be fun.

SteveF Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 Congrats.Cant wait for the avalanche of forum posts about the trip there, the tour around the shed, the drive around the streets, the drive in the hills, the cleaning, the transporter loading, the drop off at the port, the loading onto the ship, the tracking of the ship across the sea, the unloading at the dock, the transporter loading, the transported unloading, the autohaus assessment and subsequent work, the registration process, the first breakdown, the parking in the stacker, the recovery from the stacker after the first rainstorm....Months of entertainment ahead!Just don't hit the transporter Congrats Tom.

hugh Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 Slightly off topic but did you ask him why he's selling it? I'd be curious to know, making room for water cooled cars maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 Great work, I assume there are no other MW cars in Aus so it will be highly prized no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-banger Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 Congrats.There won't be many Turbo Carrera's in Oz, if any.PS why does the car appear without plates in the pic & videos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboT Posted 11May, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 Slightly off topic but did you ask him why he's selling it? I'd be curious to know, making room for water cooled cars maybe? making room for more cars .... Mentioned a gt3 (time to sell him yours??). He also already has another 76, two 75's and a 77 I think? Great work, I assume there are no other MW cars in Aus so it will be highly prized no doubt.he's only ever sold 3 maybe 4 cars before. 2/3 in the US and I think one in Europe. He was down playing the whole 'Magnus' thing. It's obvious he knows what his brand is, but wasn't interested in playing the fame game and maxing profit on the car. could well have gone to auction this one.. Congrats.There won't be many Turbo Carrera's in Oz, if any.PS why does the car appear without plates in the pic & videos?I am guessing because they look cooler no pink historic plates for this baby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

symsy Posted 11May, 2016 Report Share Posted 11May, 2016 Twin Turbo's I knew you would return to the fold… Congrats….Your just gonna have to work on that accent now and give up that clean cut look I would start with wearing some oily jeans and ripped T shirt out to work today and of course a BIG SMILE.There are plenty outfits in the Mullumbimby Op Shop if you need a makeover.. and I think it needs to come for a real drive north ….to the hillsEnjoy… maybe you should get the number plate RAGS -- Rags to riches Or maybe it going with the "DIRT DONT SLOW YOU DOWN" You gonna have to change your PFA handle to some thing more LA rap star DIR - T .. or maybe that is the plate .. you can tell those not in the know it stands for Director TomEnjoy… Bastard ( thats a love word in english)…. atleast the market will collapse here now your not bidding on the other T cars phew, I might get one myself now!! And as for peoples comments about your hole and stuff.. seriously no garage queening , no more show and shine ..I expect true Magnus behaviour and full on driving.No more bloody pictures of the underside unless they are something like thisToughen up , get some street into you …this could be a revolutionary life changing event if you let it , Paddington dont have any mud Scott930, ByronBayChris, turboT and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
