  1. I didnt think that it was against the law to drive with the t"s 'driving lights on' at nite till a cop pullled me over and informed me otherwise... Must admitt thou, the T driving lights are no way near as bad as those blindingly bright blue neon BMW standard lights are. Get those on the wrong angle from behind or oncoming and you cant see . I just wanna buy a crap c'dore so I can ram every BMW I can find.
  2. Had it been an SS the smash repairer would have had to pay you a $1 to take it... :lol: Seriously not that much. You buy it 'as is' for somewhere between 10-25k. You have got to remember that more than likely the chasis is ... so your more then likely going to scap it only for bits/parts. Had it been a SS you possibly could look into rebirthing it. Got to love that spot welding.
  3. League on its last legs... mmmmm.... I would think the 68,000 + people in stadium attendance would disagree with you. Me being one! Not to mention the many people in the greater OZ (who know what real football is ... not that arial ping pong aka galic football they play south of the border) transfixed to the TV screen. The ages in attendence ranged from babies to the more mature. Having said that, the greater majority of people where in the 16-40 bracket. Union is good a game... athough of recent is times has fallen prey to the same problems that league has ... too much money, players have too much spare time, etc. Then again I do believe the media has nothing else better to do then print bulls t (which they like to hide behind the theme of sensationism.... ie larger then life bulls t) Well the better team one in the end... even thou it should have been 12 -8 and the golden time would not have been required. GO THE BLUES!
  4. As you dont have those pesky squeeking noises while - moving forward - squeeking from the rear axles - turning - squeeking from rear axles and power steering like every flammen vy I & ii c'dore does.
  5. You might want to try turning the DSP off...
  6. I must admitt, the guess work is from unfortunate personal experience and the photos showing similar tell-tale signs. Any accident investigators out there?

    Awesome fuel economy

    Got 1100k on mine... depending upon how spirited I drive im getting 13-17ish. Dam that small petrol tank!
  8. MMM more then likely the reason the air bags didnt employ would look to be due to the cars main point of impact being a sudden stop while going backwards. I'd dare say the car was going like a rocket at the time and for some reason the car was forced into an understear situation. By the look of the photos it was a right hand turn spin. The other bits of damage where simply objects collected through the spin. Although the damage looks bad, I'd hazard a guess the car come to solid stop going backwards doing somewhere between 40-60kms. The broken front drivers seat gives this away too... On a positive note the cars back seats look to be relatively intact. Unlike a SS setup which would have the middle seat explode outwards in this type of impact. A design feature! I reckon the driver would be relatively shaken and probably stired! There's quite a bit of stuff they can salvage. Chasis probably stuffed and a few panels, but theres plenty more left. Had this been a SS they might as well fired up the furnace and melted it!
