u want a lowered car to tow? are u planning on towing a car with it?

[scandyflick]

5 or 6 bucks. tops.

[rad100]

haha yeh.. wouldnt mind a gq patrol but dont wanna spend 9k on it..

lol my mums got vp on gas. i reckon thats about what its worth. pos is the most unreliable car our familys ever owned. we owned is since 98' so fair while now laundry list of probs, mechanics have mentioned to em a few times its the worst car to have on gas.

aside from that what i always thought was crap with em is the power steering becomes super light suddenly at 3/4 lock, making for jerky steering.

get a dato man, mines got tow bar towed a broken down vp with it b4

yeh but y are they so bad..?

[Damo_R34]

some f**king scumbag asshole kids shot a ball bearing/slug/rock through my brothers windscreen as he was coming down the McIntyre rd hill towards Bridge rd last night, leaving a 3ish mm hole in the window with excessive spider web cracks.

his friend said it might have been from an older model pajero, but not sure. f**king scum.

They were made in elizabeth nuff said, cant remember all the probs it had but as far as im concerned it had an easy life. gbox blew, power window buttons dont work half the time, used to overheat alot, rear suspension went on it. the only thing in its defence was it has done something like 280,000k

o and bogans n old ladys drive them shopping trolleys handle better. had good torque though ill give it that 1

n damn damo thats some messed up sh*t

That's some serious shit Damo, especially after the rock throwing at moving car incidents in the last few years. Make sure he reports it to the cops mate

[Damo_R34]

yep mum reported it last night, not much they can do understandably, but builds a case if anyone else reports similar behaviour.

[Matty 31]

lol. whenever i wander through all i see is talent. and i dont have matty's (low low) standards, so thats saying something.

f**kup bitch wait till the dinner at the ale house, you'll see my taste has quite improved

dont waste ya time adrian

even with a decent trans cooler the turbo 400 trans is a piece of shit

lowered car will be a piece of shit to tow with too, as the trailer will dump the IRS smack on its arse

get yaself a decent 4wd (yes, you dont wanna spend 9k on a patrol, but you'll probably spend 9k fixing the dunnydore)

either that or get a BA falcon - ideally go a wagon as they're live axle and leaf spring
