needs to go, too many cars at home First to drive will buy. FOR SALE IS MY EVER RELIABLE DAILY DRIVER FOR THE LAST 6 YEARS. THIS THING IS AWESOME. BY FAR THE MOST RELIABLE I HAVE OWNED. 6 YEARS AGO I DID A COMPLETE BRAKE OVERHAUL. NEW DISCS, PADS, ALL FOUR CALIPERS WERE OVERHAULED AND BRAKE SYSTEM FLUSHED AND BLED. IT'S LASTED ME 6 YEARS WITHOUT TOUCHING IT AND I ONLY RECENTLY REPLACED THE FRONT DISCS AND PADS. BRAKES ARE EXCELLENT ON THE FRONT. I THINK THE REARS SHOULD STILL BE OK BUT I HAVENT LOOKED. 6 YEARS AGO I ALSO CHANGED THE RADIATOR TO AN ADRAD ONE. THE CAR NEVER EVER OVERHEATS, EXCELLENT FOR DRIVING DISTANCES, SHORT TRIPS, SUMMER OR WINTER. AIR CON HAS BEEN REGASSED LESS THAN A YEAR AGO AND BLOWS COOL. RECENTLY FITTED NEW TINTED WINDOWS WHICH COST $250 ALONE. THEY ARE FAIRLY DARK AND KEEP OUT ALL THE UV RAYS SO CAR STAYS COOL. I HAVE SWAPPED THE WHOLE FRONT END WITH AN ED XR6 ONE OF THE EXACT SAME COLOR. THE SEATS HAVE ALL BEEN SWAPPED TO XR6 TOO. THE DRIVERS ONE HAS SOME WEAR PATCHES/TEARS BUT INCLUDED IS SOME REPAIR MATERIAL. SEATS ARE STILL VERY FIRM AS NO ONE SITS IN THIS CAR EXCEPT ME. THE WHEELS ARE ED XR6 WITH DECENT TREAD. JUST HAD A WHEEL ALIGNMENT 2 WEEKS AGO. THE EXHAUST IS NEAR NEW WITH GENIE EXTRACTORS, A LESS THAN 5000 KM OLD CAT CONVERTER WHICH IS METALIC, A NEW MUFFLER AND 2.5 INCH PIPING. IT HAS AN LPG SYSTEM WHICH HAS NEVER LET ME DOWN. THE CAR IS TUNED FOR STRAIGHT GAS ONLY, NO PETROL. IT RUNS LIKE A DREAM, VERY STRONG AND RESPONSIVE AND STILL ECONOMICAL. STILL HAS ABOUT 4-5 YEARS LEFT ON LPG TESTING. THE STEREO MY KIDS GOT TO AND THOUGHT IT WAS A MONEY BOX SO HAVE PUT SOME COINS IN THERE MAKING THE CD PLAYER UNUSABLE BUT RADIO WORKS FINE. IF YOU REALLY WANT TO, YOU COULD GET THEM OUT YOURSELF. I HAVEN'T BOTHERED FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS HAHA HAS 6 X 9 SPEAKERS IN REAR. CAR ALWAYS SERVICED AND IN ALL THIS TIME I HAVE NEVER HAD TO TOP UP THE OIL AS IT DOESN'T BURN OIL. DUE FOR A TRANSMISSION OIL AND FILTER CHANGE. TRANSMISSION IS FINE AND SHIFTS PERFECT. GOOD DIFF AND NO NOISE. HAS SLIGHT SCRAPE ON PASSENGER LOWER DOORS AS PICTURED. FEW RUST BUBBLES AROUND CAR TOO LIKE IN DRIVER REAR DOOR JAM NEAR DOOR LATCH, AND BELOW DRIVER DOOR. OTHERWISE EXTREMELY RELIABLE, HAS A GOOD NEW BATTERY, AND EVERYTHING WORKS AS IT SHOULD. COMES WITH XR6 SPRINGS AND SHOCKS (PEDDERS) FOR YOU TO FIT. i WAS GOING TO DO IT TO FINISH IT OFF BUT DIDN'T GET AROUND TO IT. IF YOU WANT SOMETHING RELIABLE AND CHEAP TO RUN THAT STILL HAS PULLING POWER AND LOOKS DECENT ENOUGH, DON'T LET THIS ONE GO. OTHERWISE WILL STRIP OUT WHOLE CAR WHICH WILL BE A SHAME BUT I CAN GET MORE MONEY FOR IT IN PIECES. THIS CAR WILL DRIVE AROUND AUSTRALIA NO PROBLEMS. ENGINE IS VERY STRONG AND HEALTHY. I'D CHANGE THE SPRINGS AND SHOCKS THOUGH TO THE ONES PROVIDED AND DO THE TRANSMISSION SERVICE TO KEEP PEACE OF MIND. CAN HELP TRANSPORT ANYWHERE IN OZ AT BUYERS EXPENSE. PICK UP IS FROM CHIPPING NORTON NSW 2170 $1500 firm ANY QUESTIONS CALL WES 0404899059
