  1. G'day to all. Mine is a 2004 BA Mk1 First registered Aug 2004. Has got 180,000 on the clock, and NEVER missed a beat, and goes like a ROCKET. It's bog standard, except all 6 front lights are fitted with HID's, and it's IMMACULATE in every respect. I live at Tamworth, and work all over the North-West, New England, and Hunter Valley. Most runs are 3-400 klm per day. 90% are highway klms. Mine looks, feels and drives like new. Always serviced on the dot, new plugs every 60k, feed it the "good oil", wash it regular, polish it when needed. Gets 9.8 - 10.2 L/P/100klm if driven on cruise at 100-110KPH. If I stick it up her, (120-150 KPH while the cops are still in bed) then it blows out to around the 13.5-15 L*/P/100klm. Runs OK on regular unleaded, likes V-Max better, and Loooooves Vortex best of all. Is on set of tyres #5, just spend $600.00 on ball joints and bushes, and will soon need a seal in P/S pump, and that's been the HONEST sum total spent, apart from regular type stuff. Honest opinion,,,,, If I was another person, and looking at my car with view to purchasing, and I knew the true history of ownership etc etc, then a few laps around the block, and a burst or 3 on the highway to feel the surg under foot, and the sinking into the seats, and I'd buy it in a flash. I've looked at the FG turbo, and just can't come to grips with that "Sh*tty excuse for green. Gimme ENVI any day. I told the salesman that I'd pay whatever and wait for however long, if they could build me a newie in ENVI. He said ,,,, No can do. So looks like I'm gunna drive this old girl into TAXI type miles, and I reckon that it's not even reach it's halfway in life yet. Should hit 400k no wuckers.
