How long drive is it from Sydney ie Liverpool?Sydney to canberra is about 3 hours, or a little less, depending entirely on Sydney traffic, and how heavy your right foot is. ducatijb said: wheres the dealer you are meeting at...Gregorys Braddon24 Lonsdale StBraddon Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/1440-canberra-xr-cruise-bbq/page/5/#findComment-16565 Share on other sites More sharing options...

physh Member 248 Member For: 22y 7m 28d Location: Canberra Posted 09/04/03 10:41 PM Share Posted 09/04/03 10:41 PM Sweet... this is getting bigger'n ben hur! I just sent an email to Gregorys... wait and see whether they'll help out with something (I dunno, snags for the bbq? PERFECT opportunity for Gregorys though. Perhaps they can redeem themselves for their occasional lack of customer support... lol)NOT that I'm saying that our sponsor isn't good... it's just that they're not in Canberra... *grin*I am looking forward to this in a big way! Who has a high quality digital camera they can take lots of photos with and send em to the press? yay!

Guest Lowndes Crazy Guests Posted 10/04/03 12:21 AM Share Posted 10/04/03 12:21 AM Sounds like this is going to be great! Too bad I don't have one of the cars myself... Im too young to drive anyway, but it will be good to see so many beautiful cars in one place at the same time!

I was under the impression he was still waiting on delivery. That would be outstanding for me, as I am yet to see any FPV vehicle in the flesh, let alone my ultimate dream car, the Pursuit.

Djelibeybi Code Monkey Member 265 Member For: 22y 6m 29d Location: Canberra, ACT Posted 10/04/03 03:12 AM Share Posted 10/04/03 03:12 AM (edited) Chris - it takes me just on 3 hours to drive from the centre of Canberra to the centre of Sydney city. Otherwise, www.whereis.com.au has a nifty directions service that also estimates the driving time required.Edited to say... ARRRGH. I should read both pages of the topic before replying.

Trumpy What's happening? Lifetime Members 1,605 Member For: 22y 6m 5d Gender: Male Location: Steel City, NSW Posted 10/04/03 03:35 AM Share Posted 10/04/03 03:35 AM How many of us Sydney people are making the trip down?We could always meet up at Liverpool and make a convoy down the Hume. Should only take about 2 - 2.5 hours from Liverpool to Canberra.I am not a confimed starter yet (need to check with the boss to see if she has any plans) but if I have a leave pass I will make the drive down.So, anyone keen for a convoy?Matt Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/1440-canberra-xr-cruise-bbq/page/5/#findComment-16709 Share on other sites More sharing options...
