    This lovely Saab at $1750.00 would have to be worth a look for someone who wants a nice convertible to soak up the sun? Great colours. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1243005521?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=ios_VIP&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms

    Yes mate. The C6 is a magnificent car in its own right, top work has gone into this for sure. Styria, I like the back end most, the front is ok, but I am an arse man :D I do have to agree with Styria on the interior. With all of the engineering, design and top effort on the outside, to just...

    Now for super exotic. Low k, and check out that tool roll!!!! No, it isn’t cheap, but compared to other 360’s this is great value. With the current economic climate, some cheap cars are sure to be had if one has some spare cash. When things get better, these will increase in value. Not...

    A fair bit more exotic, but the price still represents great value for money. Plus Who wouldn’t want that glorious Ferrari V8 sound in your ears with the roof Down? Now that for me is where the value lies in this one. Australian delivery, under 20k on the clock, serviced and long rego...

    Not a bad spec car for the money, and under 200k on the clock. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1234635461?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=ios_VIP&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms

    This seems to be one of the nicest condition SL’s for the price I have seen. Is it just me, or is the rear ride height low? http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1243293758?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=ios_VIP&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms

    It’s value for money weekend. What better way to enjoy a rainy weekend, and not going to do battle at shopping centres with panic buyers than browsing cars on line with a nice coffee Plus, I’m highlighting convertibles. This looks like a lovely well maintained car. Certainly a whole lot of...

    I’m off to Queensland for a sales meeting at my Australian head office at Wacol Thursday & Friday of this week. While there, I will be visiting the owner of this lovely 1958 FC Special. What a lovely looking FC in Colleen Green.

    I like all original vehicles regardless of make. How good is this. Not even a crack in the dash which is what all early Japanese cars suffered from. This looks like an Australian made Corona due to the AMI badging...

    Is this car really as rare as the seller is stating? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1965-Mercedes-Benz-300SE-Fintail-/254529814803

    Tire pressures

    Sean, A quick question before I start. Are you American or schooled in America? Ok, My wife has the same issue with 245/45R19 tyres. They are like fat rubber O rings! At the recommended pressure of 38 psi it rides like a billy cart, and her top line model, handles like a slot car, and not...

    Gents, Does anybody know anything about this 450? It was advertised some time ago in the Burwood area. I sent a link back then, and he had quite a few unusual cars in the factory unit the pics were taken...

    This is very rare in this condition and k’s. Seems a bit pricy, but I guess that is what’s happening to Holden prices as we speak. I would put this in my garage, but not at this price. :( now, as I mentioned before, how do I buy my FB Special back...

    This seems interesting. The owner states it will only cost around $1500.00 for some work for a full and healthy pink slip. New brakes and a few other things done already. He doesn’t know if any timing chain work has been done...

    Steering Wheel Lock

    Your pretty right there Sean. All the Mercs I have had rode very well. I spent last week in Adelaide, and had a 7,000k old Toyota RAV4 hybrid. You would think a compact SUV would have quite supple suspension, as it had a standard wheel and tyre package on it, I thought this will be good...

    The Electrics are coming

    I would question this claim of 11,000 lb/ft torque. It sounds amazing, and would turn heads, it’s a marketing ploy for sure. Electric motor torque is calculated thus rated differently to the way we know it in the automotive (non electric) world. The work we, VTI (Volvo Trucks International)...
