Anonymousyou really should ask me for advice when you buy cars moto
and don’t expect me to drive this one if you put ‘bad:angry: boy’ stickers on it

AnonymousIt’s not a Camry Mick, it’s is an Aurion though with a few tweaks. Motor is supercharged and has bigger brakes, more pots, better (read rougher) suspension and some red (yes I know) seats.
It was one of the few cars that was different enough to catch my eye, has great fuel economy (I drive 125Km a day) goes alright and looks nice. It’s number 159 of 888 made……ever…….they didn’t sell very well as they were priced to high to start with.
Considering I don’t ever roost the hell outta my cars (anymore) the torqusteer isn’t an issue. At anything more than 8/10th’s wet or dry below 60Km’h the wheels lose traction and you get axle tramp if you look for it. That said it acceleartes pretty well given the drive is at the wrong end of the car and from a rolling start it has efforless power with 300NM+ pretty much off idle.
If it had a few more KW (read 30) and was AWD it would an amazing car. Still, I’m happy with it for a while. I just need to get the (special) towbar ordered and fitted.
XY – I bought my bike from Bolton’s down your way hence the stickers

AnonymousChampo knows the score. In the box trailer on the back, same as I do now with the Subaru
If the towbar wasn’t going to cost me so much and Champo found out the cost of the trailer I would have considered buying it……

does this mean… you want me to ask anfo if he wants to sell his bike trailer?

AnonymousIt wouldn’t hurt to know what he wants for it. If I bought it I’d look to get it re-sprayed and weld some plates/mesh in the gaps.

June 3, 2009 at 11:04 pm #138118What’s wrong with Jim?, I have a very good fwiend from lismore named Jim, one of the Angry penguins who defined cool was a Jim, (he works with me now) Captain Kirks name was Jim, Jim Morrison was obviously a Jim, and I am pretty sure some of these Jims have mowed lawns. Besides any trailer is dorky, that’s why you shoulda got a crewcab ute, so your dog coulda hung out in the breeze on the back…. and that is way cool.

Anonymous….my old man and his old man are called Jim!
Crewcab’s won’t be any good for the mileage I do economy wise and they just don’t look nice enough. I’d have one as a second car but lets’s not go there!
