Day Trip To Melbourne

[SSHatch]

Well I came, I picked it up and I am back in Tassie.

Lets just say it was a pretty interesting day in good old Melbourne.

I have to agree with you guys about St Kilda and the beach etc...

Spose the fact it was in the 30's helped a lot as well

Wont say too much about the car, it was damaged in transit and I was never told, bits were stolen and then compliance cost me more than I was quoted by a fairly big margin. What do ya do when your in a foreign city by yourself with no transport or friends?? Not mentioning the name of the business as I dont want any warnings etc and they are yet to be contacted in regards further developments.

Headed back towards the Spirit, missed a turn, went round the block trying to find somewhere to grab some lunch and good old party lights behind wanting me to pull over.

Crime cops bored with nothing to do as the drug dealers don't get up till 3pm, he told me, so they pulled me over cause I didn't have any plates. Checked the permit stuck to the screen, took it and my licence and spent 15mins in the car on the radio while his partner inspected pretty much every bit of my car while at the same time telling me he couldnt give a rats about cars they dont interest him. He actually thought I was joking when I told him that yes it is a genuine 32 GTR not just a badged up Skyline as he thought it was. His partner finally finished whatever the hell it was he was doing and proceeded to read me the rules and regs off the permit and explain what I could and couldnt do even though I had just copped that lecture from his mate who knows nothing about cars.

So when he finally finished I thanked them for filling in an hour of my otherwise boring day and went and sat outside the gates to the Spirit terminal for about 5 hours till it was finally time to get the hell outta Melbourne.

Off the boat the next morning and straight to Symmons Plains. Passed about 15 different cops out on the hwy and not one of them even looked twice at the filthy GTR with no plates touring in the middle of nowhere.

ahhh.... I know why I live over here. Least the eye candy was worth it.
