Score. another interview. Just got off the phone from it, cause it's 400km away in a little know sheep paddock called 'Canberra'

Okay, it's Aust's capital, but I wasnt kiddign about the sheep paddock. That's the land it was built on.

YAY! This one's looking hopeful - and amusingly, just when my support biz which I've survived on has been going well too and I got a day a week at 80 an hour.

:D

If I land it, I got my eye on this really nice black WRX MY01 five door, or a red Forester XT. Least either way I can afford to eat!

WRX = delicious.

Black = delicious.

Wagon = not so preferable as non-wagon.

If I don't buy myself a Jaguar in my late 20's....this will be my trusty steed.

WRX that is 30G Aud = 20G USD = bargain = 0wnd

And sooooooooo easy to tune. Mnor mods that dont detract from reliability (Cat back free flow exhaust, cold air intake, Front mount intercooler) makes any WRX go like gangbusters.

I was scratching my head wondering if somethings wrong cause the pric e is excellent - then realised it's the unloved bug eye MY01. People want the MY00 or MY03. MY01's and 02's got funny headlights that detract from the look.

Theres an MY00 going for 5G less that is white and just as tempting.

20 grand? Thats not exactly cheap, but in relative terms, I suppose.

for the type of perfomance you get? For the price, NOTHING will touch it on a track, barely a V8 will get it in a straight line, maybe a second hand MX-5 will get it in the twisties and nothing will catch it in the wet.

It's a frikking bargain :D

Then good thing I qualified my statement by saying for the dollar then ^_^

GTR's are 10K more expenive IF you can find one in good nick that hasnt been turned into a tarmac drifter. Doing the drifter setup ruins their wet roadholding

Canberra? Isn't that on Australia's southern coast, somewhere near Melbourne? I also know of a Aussie Heavy Cruiser called the Canberra that was sunk by the Japs at the battle of Savo Island.
