Default new man on forum

Gday everyone, My name is Andrew. I come from Brisbane.

I used to own a Holden Berlina *yuk* I have finally seen the light and I am getting a 1998 EL Fairmont Ghia, I was raised in a Ford family so I love them.

The VS was my first car, but like I said, I needed to think logically and Holdens are just crap now to me.

It comes with the factory double din DSP system as well as factory alloys and factory leather seats and trim.

It would be great to get to know you guys.

C ya later. Andrew.

Welcome Andrew.

My first car was a TE Corty, and ironically when I was younger, I had alot of Ford stuff, and grew up in a mostly Ford family. Although I drive a VL now.

Nice car mate!

Im more than happy with the EL Ghias audio setup, it pumps enough for me. I will get around to installing a better sub, getting sick of that parcel shelf vibrating.
