Did the throttle body clean too and it was already quite shiny. 37K Km's on it at purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broaders77 Member 73 Member For: 16y 5m 11d Posted 18/09/08 11:35 PM Share Posted 18/09/08 11:35 PM Agreed- you can't generalise and say that every chaser is going t be a dog. As long as the engine is strong and it's still under warranty what's the drama? I bought one so far under market value I could spend thousands fixing it up and still be ahead.I can understand why people would rather pay more for a cleaner example, but my budget only allowed me to spend a certain amount and for me, an ex-chaser was the best option.

You will find that a lot of highway patrol drivers are car lovers of some kind and like there cars to be clean. That said I have a sillouette 2004 BA series 1 manual with 72k's premium sound duel 2 1/2 inch cat back exhaust edit, custom phoon bodykit, et al that I am selling to upgrade to a FG G6ET.

All cop cars are driven hard, (except for the unmarked pencil pushes cars).2. 99% of XR6T that were cop cars in their former life are most likely to be highway cars, these have deffinately been driven hard.3. For some reason everyone thinks that cop cars are "tricked up". This maybe true in the old days but these days there is nothing done too them to make them any better. There are "Police packs" for cars but my understanding is these only have different wiring to the normal cars. In my opinion I would never buy an ex cop car and guess what I do for a livin????, but that's only my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a performance car !! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
