Fiesta? Nah, I'm talking Korean quality - Festiva.

Just think mate, it'd be soooo much better than the GT-P, and almost as small as the GT40.

Trust me, ditch the GT idea, and buy a Festiva. It will be worth it.

- Leads
- Fuel Filter
- Fix rear of gearbox where leaking and top up with oil
- Check diff and drivetrain for wear etc
- Then tune her up and make her run "be AU tiful" hehe.

But yeah they are pretty sure its just the gasket and shim at the rear of the box where the tailshaft connect's. Replace that and it "should" be all good.

jeez mate i dont think you could have posted worse pics if you tried :

Got to say though, I don't think any other car would have looked half as good as Dave's XR8 Ute in the mall on Friday. It looked absolutely sensational, and the kangaroo in the back really sets it off. Dunno about $2 a ride though, thought that was a bit steep to go in a BA:

Oh Austin,what big eyes you have! Looks like you had a hard night on the turps.$2 a ride in a BA damn cheap I say. Still think that the mall would look better with two black tyre marks up the middle of it.
