My cougar has gone to car heaven :( Last week during a storm a tree crushed her, insurance company rang me today and told me she was a ride off. No more days and nights flying threw winding corners with the sunroof open, pur of perfect noted exhuast, with people looking twice saying "wow what is that" No more turning on the heated seats on a cold morning and feeling your back warm up in minutes, washing her very weekend with a grin on my face.
    :(

Sorry to hear of your loss, but on a positive note, if you have the space to
keep it, buy it back from the insurer if possible, there's around $5K+ in spare parts under the bonnet, plus what ever you could get for trim and undamaged panels (if there are any). Will you go again or go for something different this time. Cheers Mark

Just remebered a COUGAR is for sale at Leumeha(can never spell that suburb) near Campbelltown but the add from memory address was Narrellan they may have just moved there.
Its a limited addition like mine same colour as yours going for only 15K. I knew both owners and the klms are supper low because the wife only drove 10mins to rail station and park in under cover car park. But that was 4 weeks ago. One in QLD 9.900 burgandy red it also a limited modle. Quote:

Jesse, I thought I'd spotted your Cougar recently so it must have been just a day or so before the storm. By the looks of it it was just bad luck that your Cougar was just in THAT spot where the gum tree decided to fall over.
I feel your pain.
