Well, it's 8:30am Monday morning, and it seems that TotalDriver truly is an arseclown.

Let's ban him. Or ban ourselves for believing him, just for a second. Either way.

You can't tease with words for 2 weeks, then not follow through.

There is a name for people who do that.....starts with 'W' and the last three letters are 'k' 'e' 'r'

Anyone got any idea's ?

Maybe he found the car, its in better condition than previously thought,it started first go, he got so excited driving it out of the garage he missed the brake pedal,got on the loud and wrote it off against the side of a house. Now he's speachless and is trying to think of ways to explain himself.

It was a sad joke from the "Holden owner" ... it really wasn't an XA Coupe in Yellow ... and i think TotalDriver is hiding in shame because he was PWNED.

Maybe was just attention seeking so you won't forget the name? Considering it's the name of his business.

Any publicity is good publicity.

C'mon guy's, give Total Driver a break. I followed him on the weekend when he picked it up (see my lucky snap!), unfortunately it wasn't an XA but it was yellow none the less!

A friend of my father had one of these yellow XB GT coupes in the 1980s. He still wants to cry nowdays when he realises what he had and that he sold it for a song in the late 1980s.

Hi All,

It appears someone has been having fun with my user name and password at my expense recently. I have since changed passwords, hopefully that will fix that!

I can assure you all that the XA is for real. The problem I have is that the guy selling it is only available on weekends, and mine are pretty full up with V8 Supercar committments, building our new XR8 (see project cars), family stuff and so forth. And that's just the weekends!

I am trying to get him to let us come over after work one night this week to pick it up as this weekend is full for me already

Once I have pics, I promise you'll be the first to see them.

In the meantime, I know it's a bit of fun but let's not get carried away like the last few pages of this thread. It's just a car and I'm just some bloke buying it. That's it! I admire your enthusiasm, but let's keep it real.

Cheers for now,

What!

Keep it real. I am real, and this is the biggest bargin of the century and I want to see it god damn it!

If it was me, stuff the family (maybe they can come), bugger work and a race car takes ages to build anyway (hire people to do it for you).

Where are your priorities man! : :newangel:

TotalDriver, your very convincing but I still think your pulling the joke of the decade. Not upset though because I think it is well done and very funny.

I wont add too much rubbish to this thread other than to say I am very excited for you TotalDriver. I can also say that there are many other excited TotalDriver disciples here and I cannot wait to see it here. Make sure you get some photos of the car in the shed with the rats nests in it too. Good find buddy.
