With sadness I wanted to annouce here at the Holy Grail of the AU my beloved is on the market. I think I'm silly doing this as she's a damn great car and been very faithful to me :
I have owned since new, she has only bean smeared with Meguirs or better every 3mths and log book serviced @ Ford. I have never been a driver who abuses his car just driven it spiritedly. Extras are in my sig below. Washed every 2nd wk at the worst and garaged virtually all its life. Just renewed rego so there's a years to go ! Tyres are 90% + and rwkw at the best was 178. A rare colour of Meteorite. 110thou k's. Everthing has been done right on this car with care and detail. I am willing to negotiate $23k ono by PM please. Genisis Rims are not included!

What about the wheels. I know previously you said the wheels were not included. Correct?
Good luck with the sale. Its a beautiful car. You would be better putting this in the for sale section. |

I told Pol, and her words were "Do you want to buy it". My answer "Of course". But no money (unless you'll take $50 a week for 460 weeks???).

August 30, 2002 doesn't seem like such a long time ago Maurie....AU XR's seem to make that go quick.
You're mad you're mad, should run it into the ground. Ah well, farewell to Mesh Bandit #1 Good luck with the sale.
