Yea.. I see that as a recipe for disaster :lol:

" It's hard to find a turbo FTO anywhere in the world, let alone over here in OZ. "
And how many do we have here in the club at the moment? I wouldn't say it's hard to find them, just have to know where to look :?
Yeah but you gotta appreciate how hard it is to sell an NA FTO even. I'd be writing sh*t like that to pick up interest too.

Yea but you'd be able to write "owned by a young female driver with perfect driving record, never been in an accident or pulled over by cops. This car has never been hooned and has only ever been driven according to the law. Running mechanically sound, never had an issue"

AND people would actually believe you :lol: :lol:

Mmm...you've got a point there. :lol: I still talked up the 300k Mirage like mad though..that sold within a week. (Was a genuinely trouble-free thing I might add)
I've thought about it, not sure whether to take the tuner's route or the sensible 'I haven't done anything to this car' approach when it comes to sell. Guess it depends whether you want to entrap a 16 year old, or someone having a mid-life crisis. What description gives the best opportunity at selling.. :hmm:

Hypothetical haha, I originally planned to keep it for 3 years..She'll be 21...so will I actually. We'll both be getting old by then... :(
Gonna need some reliability and a turbo in my life after that.

Anyhoo, back to Gumtree, I see someone bought that Vitara in the end hehe.
