    I wish I was as intelligent as you, but alas im just a dummy.

    All im saying that there are car snobs out there that are too hardcore. Me personally couldn't care but I do see your point also

    When I go and sells my cars well it is what it is. The car market will pay the value at that time

    Yes my UK has rust and I knew at the time of purchase but was happy to deal with it. Needs a respray too but still happy to drive it

    Its the inner city of the south west. That area is growing so much with all the estates popping up around there. All those houses yet very little roads to handle the increased population

    Yes. I work out that way and what used to be a leisurely drive down the M7 10 years ago is now a nightmare. Mind you, not all that bad, we’ve gone from 1 to 4 practices in that area in that time :)

    The rate of growth is really crazy. We have been at capacity last year or so across 3 sites. About to open at Gregory Hills and expect that to do well too

    Lol. The good folk of Camden would be horrified to read that. They consider themselves gentry and avoid crossing the Hume into Campbelltown at all costs!

    In the big scheme of things the import vs Aussie is BS for most......I have done my arse on my Porsche Cayanne , Lexus and am about to bleed on selling the C63. All Aussie delivered by the way but just new cars.....It's all relative in the end...... Who cares anyway.....Here for good time no long time.....The kids would just spend it on **** anyway.......:)

    I put a genuine CS TCU from Eurospares on mine....I had the 99 TCU which really chewed through the clutch in 1st gear......It turned the car into a totally different beast especially in sport mode.....If you don't have one on your 360 I highly recommend the upgrade..

    100% agree

    The funny thing was I've been offered more money for my "rusted UK import" that still needs TLC and is hot rodded than I got for my AUS delivered version. Only difference is my AUS car was GTS. UK rust bucket is a GTB. The GTS was in far better condition as well

    If it's a 308 GTB they probably want it because it's a Dry Sump....I would take a UK Dry Sump over an Aussie delivered wet Sump any day....Just personal preference....:)

    Marc from Enzotech was telling me about this upgrade but from memory was no where near that price, my memory isn't my best asset though

    The GTB is an 84 QV. Only thing rare about it is that the only made 73 GTB QV's in RHD

    I paid $2300 for my CS TCU from memory......It is well worth doing as the change is not subtle.....The difference will blow your mind.....

    I'm not going to bite PP.......Lets just Agree to Disagree.....In a bad market they all become liabilities Aussie delivered or not because you can't eat them or sleep in them.....Simple economics 101........:)
