Sydney To Melb In The New Car!

[AFTDRK]

I Drove my old 33 and my gf's VW Polo (two seperate occasions) back from Sydney

i was a little worried about kangaroos but on both occasions i didnt manage to encounter any (that were alive anyway)

its not such a bad trip in my experience, the first time back in my old 33 i drove it straight only stopping for fuel and the occasional light meal

second time in the vw i took a few hours rest half way through the journey. both times i relied quite heavily on my gps and it got me through

Yeah cos you wouldn't want to enjoy it.

Were you one of those kids that kept all his action figures in the boxes and never had any fun with them.

Perhaps you could drive your Magna more often and keep it real for both of us??

Or maybe offer to pay for a new Nismo LM-GT4 rim or Nismo front bar when either of them get smashed in a pothole out on the Hay Plain?

I would hardly call 18 boring hours of long-haul driving enjoying your car. Dodging roos, nearly falling asleep at the wheel, avoiding crazy drug induced truck drivers, being done for speeding, getting stuck behind losers doing 90km/h in a 110km/h zone, getting robbed of your hard-earned buying very dodgy food at truck stops ....

Taking a car for a belt in the hills or around Mallala is, however.

Not quite the same IMHO.

Highlighted for truth - copped a one month licence suspension and $400 fine (and this is going back a few years ago) for a road trip in a hire car to Melbourne. We did the return trip in a day and still went out clubbing when we got back. You can imagine the look on the faces of the blokes at the rental company when they took the odometer reading haha.

Aside from the lack of cruise control, a Stagea is a brilliant car for interstate trips.

soooo, what car did you get

I think one of 18 ever built and no airconditioning was a good enough excuse to get it transported rather than drive it from Brisbane

i asked what the car was and noone said anything but because iron chef has given away some clues, im pretty sure i now know what it is

good buy chef stag, nice choice

Maybe you could slip in the shower and brake your neck, better never shower again.

I could keep it real on my motorcyle that gets to 270 km in 18 seconds if i feel like it.

OK Karl, time to take a deep breath mate and everyone get back on topic

[kralster]

Yeah i know i'm just being silly.

Umm and to make matters worse when I got my R34 I had it shipped down from queensland using TOLL i beleive.

haha dont worry buddy. i spent ages looking around trying to find out what it was when all i had to do was check his topics haha

i purchased my quad frame from newcastle and the zx10 engine from near sydney airport.

i took my mate and drove Adelaide, Sydney, Newcastle, Adelaide , only stopping for fuel / servo food.

3200 klm in 36 hours, but i must admit there was a few No Dose taken on the return trip.

we had certain time retraints is the only reason we attempted such a feet, and would have been home sooner

if the NSW police force hadnt held us up for 2 hrs thinking we were drug smugglers.

the amunition and 2 x 14 inch hunting knifes in the car didnt help either.

Guessing this is the stag i saw you in on glynburn rd yesterday? Had to look twice to see if it was you, harder to recognise without gold wheels. Looks very tidy
