Quite a sight seeing a mint 1600sss and a wagon project side by side
I got my SSS off a guy that also had a wagon in Chch, must be the same person- Tom?

Dug deep and bought a Stagea RS4. Apart for its in love of petrol it has been a brilliant work house for over 12 years. Combined effect of turbo, auto, 4wd and my right foot I can't complain but would still be tempted by a 1600 wagon.
Think that might have belonged to a mate of mine, painted with house paint from memory.... think he struggled to get a buyer at $500

I vaguely remember most of them being LHD and bought to NZ by US Army when they were stationed here.

I think you are right, house paint and $500 or $600 ring a bell and I think it was LHD. The other thing that put me off was when open the tailgate was about forehead height and using it for work I could see it would end in tears....mine!!

In time for Akoroa 10th Anniversary at Labour weekend, I am sure there are a heap of people keen to see this at the nationals. Bring your dad and come show us how to drive in the grasskhana

When was this on Trademe? Good thing I didn't see it. This could have gotten me into serious domestic trouble.
