I don't really like BA's too much anyways, too common and more expensive than an AU :lol:

Yeah, I would definitely drive one, but I'd just prefer an AU for a few different reasons.

Tiny update, the EF has been as good as sold for $500.

And I still can't find any AUII/III wagons..

I'm with you mate, well sorta :roll: Don't particularly like AU's either. But, as of only a couple of days ago, we were looking to pick up a BAII XR8. Couldn't get my hand to go into my pocket and pull the money out though :P (I know, tightass right :lol: ) The missus really likes AU XR's, so for less than half the price, that is what we are now ,( "finally" :roll: ), looking for. Seen AUII XR8's for less than $8k, so a wagon shouldn't be too pricey, but the problem is finding the right one eh! I know my mate has a couple at his Auction house here in Newie, but it may cost you to get one across the water :lol:

I'm really interested in it though, thanks Mick :D

Good mate of mine is the operations manager there, from memory they had about $6k on it. Planning on going over there next weekend when I get back from a work trip I'm going on next week. I'll see if he still has it or any other AUII or III wagons and let you know if something comes up.
Cheers,
Mick

Yeah thanks Mick, I called up about it on Saturday and he said it was starting at $5500, which doesn't include pick slips etc. He also said he thought it would be about $700 or so for Toll to ship it over..

Unfortunately that's a bit too much, I love the look of it though :D

Thanks Brad, but ones a series 1 and the other is at Tilford on Moonah, I went there a couple of days ago and they didn't have any AU wagons.. I guess it's an old ad.
