  1. hi, try C-red in welshpool. few weeks ago i was looking into buying some and he had a set for 1200 bucks. T
  2. Hi and thanks for the advice, after 15 years because 15 years ago they cost 100-120,000 bucks new in australia...if you could get one! i have an onroad budget of 23000 absolute max and onroad i mean with insurance at around 900 a year for my age. also being married you have to have a budget that you both agree on and stick to. if id ont agree/adhere to the budget i simply cant get the car.simple. a few months to go and i may even have to go east to pick one up as they are thin on the ground in perth. i figure it is that way because we dont even have any comliancers for R32s here...YET! we get some slim pickngs or have to be buy sight unseen and pot luck it from importers. granted sometimes your luck is good but of all things i hate to put buying a car down to pure luck...and indeed it is. i figure there are some cars in the east for prices around the high teens early twenties then i factor airfair and accomodation then the car carrier back i may get something decent. the guys here wants mid to low 20s for some of his ones and i must say they leave a bit to be desired, like big scratches on metallic paintwork, spot rusts near the reaer wing and weathered and hardened interior trims. i have almost convinced myself not to buy one when i went looking for a whole weekend but the redeeming point was that the wife suggest i look interstate. pointers anyone? which states best price easy transport? thanks again, T
  3. Evening/morning all, long time reader and first time member/post. i am what seems like eternity but is only a few months away from purchasing a car i can now afford after 15years. i have a yard whom imports them often and has a few dreams about his pricing now and again but he really does get some nice cars and some bunkers. recenlty looking through his yard i noticed not alot of them were complied and infact some had doorskins missing but was later expalined as to be being preapred for the intruion bars. anyway i noticed a disturbing trend inmost of these cars as the weather seal and strips were almost nonexistent. alarm bells ringing and all it looked like you had to remove and replace these seals not only the front but back window seals also. 15 years is 15 years but some were almost gone and some were still good but i noticed it was the most thing that stuck out in all of them. the door seals and strips on the outside were perished in alot of them too. do any you members have any such issues when buying or after buying your car with the seals? they hard to replace? you need a new screen? i am panicking over nothing? its just i know after a while if left unattended they will eventually leak water into the A pillar and it goes pear shaped from there. who knows if water has come in and started rusting? any and all advice is appreciated in advance. Regards, T
