AU2 Forte sold new 23/3/01; bought by me in Feb 08 with 74,000 on the clock, up to 88,000 now.
Looking at an AU3 Fairmont with 70,000km on it for a second car - $9000 though, so it's not cheap. |

i reckon hey. I couldn't fathom an AU with less than about 150ks on the clock. I mean hell, in the 3 years i've owned my AU i've done nearly 70ks, I don't know about you guys, but i actually use my car.
