Cant wait for pics!!
I managed to pick mine up for $10300 with 143000kms on the clock, absolutely no problems with it, i bought it privately which was a bit of a risk but it turned out well. however i wish i could say its only done 76000kms, thats a nice find you got there. |

Great find buddy, congrats on the purchase. I used to have a Xr6 just like yours. Same colour and everything. Now i drive a BA Xr8. NOT A DAY goes by that i miss my old xr6. I love the xr8 dont get me wrong, but the AU was a great car.

Nice bloody pickup!!! I got my VCT for $9000 with 94,000 on the clock!
Agree'd with the 18 inch wheels. They sit in the wheel arch's real nice and look fantastic when lowered 1/1.5 inch's!! BTW, spoilers rule, never remove it...
