Yes that's right. But the wheels are why I wanted it.

Mark what the cables around the wheels on the blue 6.9 Mercedes and what are the cables used for?

 

[motec 6.9]

They are Ockey Straps Tim I would say to hold cover on the car. Like the plate Mark

Yep tarp tie downs....

That was a dummy bike rack plate I fitted to the front while it was parked in the carport to throw off the crooks while I was on holidays! The actual plates are fitted to my daily which I'm probably gunna sell in the near future (the plates and the car seperately)

Ok I take it your AU has to many K's now.

 

[Oversize]

Yep nearly 300K and there's ocassionally a horrible knock on start up when she's hot, or the engine oil is nearing a scheduled change

 

[motec 6.9]

Just as well if you look you can find V8 AU's with around 100000km on them As I have owned 2 and they are a better thing to drive with IRS than BA.

A 220Kw version with alloy heads would be nice.... Then there's the 5.6 but so hard to find and far too $$

My 2001 Series 11 AU XR8 was the 220Kw version yes they are nice and snappy to drive . How about this XR8 Series 111 Its Congo Green great colour my Vic police V8 Forte was this colour 51000km $15000 http://www.carpoint.com.au/all-cars/private/details.aspx?R=SSE-AD-2738636&Cr=2

It is a nice green. But it's still.... green!!

 

[motec 6.9]

Found it AU111 Fairmont Ghia 5Lt with 99000km $6900 http://www.carpoint.com.au/all-cars/private/details.aspx?R=SSE-AD-2903043&Cr=15

 

[motec 6.9]

Running on Empty Green is Nice ,Nice is Green

 

[Oversize]

Yep that one's more like it!

 

[motec 6.9]

Great price with low mileage . I would look at it if it was my side of the country as I wouldn't mind another V8 AU when I move over east as I do like driving them.
