A sad day

It's been an awesome 10 years of ownership, but as the saying goes "all good things must come to an end"

Bought it for 22k with 40k on the clock, sold it ten years later for 24k and 190k on the clock.

First time I've ever made money on a vehicle 😋

I sold it because I couldn't justify putting it in semi storage in a high humidity environment.

I had already replaced the roof lining twice and the screens of the DVD players in the back of the headrests were deteriating rapidly.

The stand out for me of the ten years ownership (besides the awesome Barra) was the duco.

I used it as a dayly and it sat outide in the far north Queensland sun all day long.

I am pretty anal when it comes to cleaning/washing/clay baring and waxing but the duco was robust enough to come back looking like new every time.

One good thing is, I wont be spending so much money on tires anymore 🤣

Heres a couple of pics I had in the for sale add

That's disappointing... you came back to the forum and you've sold the car... boo :sadcase:

yeah, but I have ten years of awesome memorys.

I forgot to say that for all the burnouts and traffic light races, I never got ticketed

In fact I can't recall ever getting pulled over by the boys in blue

Sorry that you have sold it.

I wonder if the new owner will be posting here?
