keep it sleeper :D how's insurance for it?
No idea, although I thought that for cars over 25 years old its cheaper, not sure though.
That's excellent!
Always remember that with cars condition is critical - it's better to have an older car in showroom condition than a newer, more sporty car (for example) that's been abused before your custody of it.
I got a 2000 model with 147,000km and i was very happy with that..
Your new car has 141,000km and it's over 20 years old!! Man that's a rippa.

You would be surprised how easy they are to fit, And they make some decant power have seen these fitted to Falcons and Commodores, With lower boost they are quieter.

A lot of older cars are more reliable than newer cars too :)

Too right!
Will: I wouldn't think about modifying your car straight away, you may decide you want to save the money for a better car once you've got some driving experience. I did that - I could have modded the Corsa (tasteful stuff), but instead decided to get a car more worthy of large outgoings first.
If however the car really is a supreme example of it's type, go for it (when it's reasonable to do so)!:)
EDIT: After looking at the pics again, it does appear to be in fantastic condition and has a kind-of retro charm and charisma (not "Carisma" - that car NEVER had any!:p).
I'm thinking a cold air filter right now and a better exhaust but thats it for a while. Really not interested in alot of power for when I'm just learning to drive. Mod's aren't really too high on the priority list as cash is limited!
yeah, just unbolt the exhaust from the cat back :D
SE that was the luxury model wasn't it?

We had a GLX manual that just kept going and going.
Think it was yeah. Flashy seat material and electric windows, not to mention a tape and radio stereo! Central locking too.
Its home at last... got a quarter of a tank of free petrol too!
All behold the pimp stick auto shifter....
ha, that looks near immaculate :eek:
The shifter looks like a Pimp cane.
Funnily enough thats exactly what I told him on msn a few hours ago.
