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?

Hi,
Technikhaus:
Price range depends on the car but i've seen some on gumtree start around the $2000
SliverGPX:
Open to any and all suggestions as long as its an FTO

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.
