they seem to just stick to their own yahoo group mailing list... good for them i suppose... i know there must be some on here but too shy to speak up hehe

I'm here and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

My opinion is that this is the best forum in Aus at present as people have a large tendency to rattle on about unrelated issues with the Yahoo groups meaning more mouse clicks that inevitably waste time when the topic becomes unrelated to the original post...

so Indy you're from Qld? any details or pics of your ride? Post them up on my thread under the General section (Reveal Yourself).

:D:D

Ok - I'll attempt to get a pic up for you in the other thread...

Hi guys,

I've had my '96 FTO (5spd manual with sunroof) for about 6 weeks now. I'm living in Commodore country up here in Mackay. My baby (fto) is turning a few heads

It's all stock at the moment but I want to look into some new mags and skirts in the future. While I am on the topic- does anyone have a right rear mudguard lying around they would be willing to sell me??

This is my first post on the website... it won't be my last!

GPXXX · Post by **GPXXX** » Sat Jun 07, 2003 11:42 am

hey bulldog, i envy you... took me forever to find a manual in red with a sunroof (but with no success until this day).

anyways, welcome to the forums.

had a few good runs against the bogans??

Hi Guys,

Don't mean to highjack this thread but we have a yahoogroup set up for Queensland owners at www.groups.yahoo.com/group/ftoqld.

This group was created as a source of more localised information for owners in QLD.

A lot of people found it easier to get e-mails rather than looking on and posting on a message board (especially whilst at work). We don't have much traffic and don't tend to post a lot of uneeded messages. (you could always opt for a daily summary)

We are due to have a cruise shortly but as it is a busy time of year for most people I have been a bit slack organising it.

Cheers

Chris

I'm on the Gold Coast. Breza that link didn't work. Anyone planning an upcoming Brissy/Gold Coast cruise? Missed the one out to Hinze Dam.

Jase.

Yeah Chris we need another cruise. Anywhere will do. Maybe we can russle up 20 FTOs this time to give a real presence on the road...

Breza · Post by **Breza** » Wed Jun 18, 2003 10:58 am

Sorry Folks,

Here is the correct URL

http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/ftoqld

Yahoo have changed the format. (might be why no one has joined lately.

)

Any ideas for a cruise are welcome, at the mo I was just planning on going for a Sunday afternoon blast up Mount Nebo or Glorious and a stopover for a cup of coffee.

Cheers

Chris

Jase · Post by **Jase** » Wed Jun 18, 2003 7:26 pm

Mt Nebo or Glorious??? Never heard of em. Sounds like a good idea though. I've heard there's a few good runs out west of Brissy. Nothin like a Mountain run on a sun morn.

princessblade · Post by **princessblade** » Fri Jun 20, 2003 10:24 pm

i went up the mountain on monday we left at 10am and it was beautiful day and over gloriuos we stopped at sommerset dam for lunch, maybe we could do a bbq on the otherside before driving home. it is a nice drive and the fto handles it sweet. i hope we can have a cruise soon

How about we set a date and location and see how we go? Doesn't have to be a big thing. We can get a bit of feedback over the next couple of weeks.

Jase.

Breza · Post by **Breza** » Fri Jun 27, 2003 8:53 pm

We have a poll running at the mo on the FTO QLD YahooGroup to see what date suits most people for our next cruise .

If anyone is keen to meet up 2 nite for a cruise, give me a call 0418 177 897.

Cheers
