    Tyres

    I just put new Pirelli P7 245/45R18 on the back of the S500, replacing PZero's of the same size. They are run flats and I was pleasantly surprised that there was absolutely no deterioration of ride nor noise. The fronts are non run flat P7's. When they are due for replacement I'll fit the run...

    Full Size pickup trucks

    A big reason for dual cab ute, including the RAM's and F150's, here is the FBT exemption distorting the market. A ute with a MRSP of $70k attracts no FBT, provides 5 seats, 4 doors, plenty of luggage space with a canopy and pretty swish interiors. A sedan, wagon or SUV of the same price...

    Car of the week

    The first car I drove at 100MPH was a 1969 XW Falcon GT, on Victoria Ave between Showground and Presidents Roads in Castle Hill. It was 1982. Only because I was 17 and indestructible it wasn't too scary. A few weeks later my dad's business partner dropped around in his 6.9, I relayed my...

    6.9 6 speed manual kit

    Not the 210 box, just the shifter module. Like your W208 the shifter has its own ECU that talks to the transmission.
