I'm looking to list at this point around the 33 mark, however it will be sold with 18's instead of the 19's... they've been ear-marked elsewhere and it probably will not have the two Alpine subs (unless the new owner is deadset on keeping them in)

Ian - The XR5's are sweet little cars, but unfortunately they are too little... I need a small wagon at this point for the photography gear and the pram and baby bag when the family comes along

Matt, the justification for selling the car due to fuel economy is flawed.

A. the XT is turbo'ed so it also has the potential for crappy fuel economy.

B. the money you will loose changing over the car will not pay for itself for many many years, so you will be worse off in the long run.

It looks like you really look after your car, why not get an edit economy tune and get better milage. I thrash my car and I always seem to get about 350km for a tank, and I read people here can get 500km a tank.

I personally think you are nuts to get rid of such a nice car only to loose heap of money and take a big step back in looks and performance.

Zap, There's a little more to it than just the fuel economy arguement, I don't wish to disclose all the reasons publically.

I understand there is a potential to bad fuel economy with an XT and any car, depending on driving styles.
