Arrow AU II and III Fairmont Ghias - Looking to buy

Hi everyone,

I am selling my XR6T shortly due to unforseen cricumstances (2 not at fault crashes in 3 months and a combined damage bill of almost $10k ) : and am looking at a suitable replacement. I am pretty much over owning a 'fast' car and am looking at buyin another cruiser (used to have an EF2 Ghia). I have looked at most luxo cars under $30k and the AU 2 or 3 Ghias seen like damn good value. I am looking at buying one with the Tickford Kit and rims as I think they look damn good.

Are there many kitted ones around?
Is it worth going the V8 over the VCT 6?
Are there any things to look out for when buying such as common faults?
Please tell me it has LSD standard :Up_to_som
Does anyone on here have one or some good pics of kitted ghias?

Thanks!

Yeah BA GT-HO if your interested Gurney's Car Center on Main North rd at Enfield are selling a EL Farimont Ghia Tickford Enhanced i6. Can't remember how much though. I know you want AU, but just letting you know. I've been chasing (to buy) AU Fairmonts all week.

AFAIK LSD is not standard, not even an option, at least not on AU1 :(

Check out Car Sales. Last time I was there, I seached on Fairmonts and Ghia's 6's and 8's and in total there was over 500. Some good options.
