FTO in QLD

Post by chrisstof1971 »

Hi Everyone,

I've been in Australia now for about a month living in Robina, moved over from the UK and unfortunately had to sell my beloved FTO back in the UK

So I'm looking to buy another would be nice to get the same as what I had which was a GR, Tip, with Full Veilside Kit but willing to start at the bottom and work my way up again.

So if you know of anyone or are selling one yourself please let me know

Thanks

Chris

There's lots of other kits than the Veilside :) you should do something different! New country, new car :)

Have u thought about a GPX?

Pricing is a bit diff to UK. A $2000 FTO will most likely be falling apart/major issues. One that's around the $5000 mark will most likely be on better condition

Same way, if you maintain your car here, you can get some resale value out of it way better than the UK market. I have been eyeing the UK sale sections for parts etc.

As mentioned in your other thread, check rock_it's car. If I was looking for a new FTO today, I would buy that.

Btw, you stay pretty close to me. I am in Southport. :)
