nice 28

http://www.pickles.com.au/servlet/Auction/...em_id=252053789 Was looking at getting this car and repairing it. Do you guys think it would be worth it? I'm looking to get a cheap car, and i was thinking that i could get a newer car that was damaged and i could repair it, thus making it cheaper than if i was to buy it in good condition. If you think it's worth buying and repairing, what do you think would be a reasonable purchase price?? And what would be you guys estimate on repairs?? (also read the damage details on the site to give you a better idea) Cheers

ah ok. Thanks for clearing that up.

Yellow, 6cyl, Turbocharged, 4WD, 4355cc That can't be correct? 4.3 litre GT-R

ah ok then. i dont think this car would be worth buying then. do you guys think it would be good to purchase and use as a track car? its a nissan s14a (take a look pickles auctions melbourne, damaged vehicles)

Just wanted to know if it was possible to register a car with a tampered vin plate? Was looking to buy a damaged car and fix it up but it had a tampered vin plate. I haven't seen the car yet, but have been told in a report that it had a tampered vin plate. Any help would be great.

man you dropped the price to 17900 but you said you can get 20k for it at a dealer??????? why not go for the dealer option n trade it in???

ahh sweet. how often are these events held?? would a cheap sh!tter be adequate for these events?? i was thinking maybe a cheap gemini with a 5speed in it would be a blast

FARK!! I'd hate for that to happen..... Is it still possible for young guns to take a car out on a track and have a spin. What about things like motorkhanas and all that??

Just wanted to know what the penalty for underage driving. As in what would be the penalty if someone under the age of 16 (without learners) was caught driving? Would this change if someone was in the car? I'm in no way considering doing this, but I am just curious as to what it was because i have heard a few stories of people driving under the age of 16.

BreathLess, if you could check and tell me if it works on xbox, that would be great. Thanks

LOL you guys are both postwhores

Just thought i'd add that i got a reply to my email, and suprise suprise the car was "apparently sold" I asked the previous rego etc. in that email, and when she couldnt come up with an answer, just use an excuse.

Never mind guys. Found my answer. If mods would like to delete, please do so.

LOL I always had in the back of my head that it was a scam. Thanks for the info everybody PS. my last thread was absolutely useless, because i didnt get to read yours while i was writing it ... lol

Thanks for that. We figured that there are alot of scams going round the net so just for precautions i made sure that my mate didn't give out his name or adress as the owner suggested. We already got the VIN number emailed to us, but we are unsure what to do with this. I have just emailed her in regards to the previous rego plates number etc. I can't get any more pics because apparently the car is already in a crated shipping container, ready to be shipped. What other relevant info do you think i should request?? I have asked if she could bring the car into aus, and let me inspect it etc. then i would hand over the cash.

If blackrex is right, and vicroads doesn't need to know if the car has been overseas or not, then why would i still need import approval? or am i thinking about this in the wrong way...

A mate of mine found a car that he is interested in. But the dilemma is that it's overseas. The car is an austrlian delivered wrx. To my knowledge the car hasn't been registered or complied overseas. He wants to know if he could re-import it here without getting it complianced etc. If the car was complied overseas, would he be able to re-comply it back in aus? If it has to get re-complianced here, how much would it cost for this to be done? Although i am 99% sure the car hasn't been complied overseas, just wanted to know this information incase it has. Thanks in advance,

Hopefully this is the case, but doesn't vicroads or anyone have to have approved exportation, and therefore they would already know if the car has been overseas or not.

Thanks for that, will be copying this thread into the importation room. The main reason he wanted that specific one was because of the price. It was relatively cheap for the same car on carsales etc, and cheap in comparison to redbook valuations. The car is a MY99 wrx, apparently it's an sti buy we checked and it's not possible, because the car was manufactured in march of 99, and the sti's made in march of 99 are two doors, and this car is a four door. The car is apparently located in Helinski in Finland. We have been emailing the owner, and she has been very good at replying etc, but for some reason, I think it's a scam. My mate hopes it isn't but there is always a possibility. Her reason for sale is that she cannot get her car complied etc. in finland because it didn't comply with EU emmisions standards, and so she would rather sell it back in aus for cheaper instead of having the car in her garage.

Have you tried using it on the xbox? I'm pretty sure that it's not compatible, but hey please prove me wrong. Would be more of an incentive to buy one. I think most of them in aus are sold out anyway. How is the bulk buy coming along??

They don't have external memory storage but has a decent 128MB of memory. I'd buy it if i just hadn't bought one two weeks ago. Great phone and a bargain price IMO Good luck with your sale
