Hi all,

Been snooping around as a guest for awhile and now I have decided to become a member n join the happy family =)

Reason why I am posting is that I am looking to buy a used car within the next month after more searching around.

Anyone recommend any shops?

I looked at power road seems ok.

Plus I am still on my probation at work and will finish in 1 month time. Anyone know of any finance places that let you go on finance during probation?

cheers all! look forward to replies from the experienced ones.

Yeah the power rd dealer is decent quality some other import dealers just from the top of my head would be SSV on princess hwy and another one on hume hwy I forgot the name but from what ive seen they have decent cars but if you go private make sure you get it checked out or check it out yourself if you know what your looking for.

I've just bought mine about a month ago . I checked out quite a few places when looking for mine. Dealers prices were way above private sale. Ended up buying mine off a member from here. Not sure what state your from but in Vic It was hard to find a good one that was near stock. I looked at around 12 I think in total for private sale. Found problems with almost every one. Then found this one and so far its perfect . Just take your time, dont rush into buying one straight away.

Thanks both, So maybe private is the way to go........ill have to take my time i guess looking around.

welcome to the forum buddy, personally ive bought both my skylines from a dealership freshly imported. id suggest try getting one imported

If your looking at a skyline, chances are it's been modded even if it looks stock. Save yourself the money (because you will probably end doing the same mods) and buy a lightly modified one off a member on the forum, someone that actually cares for their car!

+1

this would be the only way i would buy another performance car

i bought mine from power road and never had an issue... a bit pricy compared to private but it was straight import, stock as a rock...

If u got the cash, go there, its gotten bigger now and the dudes know there stuff...

Hi Baruna,

Nice to meet you and welcome to the forum.

I brought mine from a private dealer but mine is 100% stock (It's a GTv so no one bothers with them cos they're non turbo)

There is another import yard on Edwardes Road Reservoir, just down from BMSRUS (BMW Wreckers) never dealt with them but I've noticed them a few times when getting parts for my Beamer.

I'd agree with everyone else, check out the For Sales section on the forum. Depending on what you're looking at spending, one of the girls is selling her pearl white R34 for 15,000 from Vic

Welcome to the forum mate.

What are you actually after? Because I might sell my R34 GTT if the price is right (photo in signature)

+1 to buying a lightly modified one as yes you will moddify it..this way saves you lot of $$$ and time.

Hi Hi everyone,

thanks for all the feedback! its great that the people in this forum are so caring.

Cause I am still on work probation, my banker suggests me I get a loan (as I require some $$$$) after my probation is up.

So...probably won't get one for about a month from now...

Didn't know there was a seller section in this forum as well, thanks for the heads up.
