A work mate looked at this one and said it is a realy nice FTO

this is just my opinion, but...
First one - 5.5k for an auto GR? Pass.....
Second one - 6k for a early model auto? Pass...

I was not going to pay those prices!

Then ill rephrase.

Auto Fto - PASS

My Mrs suffers from epilepsy Taz,An auto would be the safer alternitave if she wants to have a drive(and she will)...

The red one you will be looking for fog/parker and indicator lights as they are missing.
Price can come down a bit.
The K's on the two of them are low that could be right but I just don't know. The clusters could have been changed out so you need to look for other signs of true K's.

good point there aza I thought they might have been tinted!
As for genuin km/s

This looks good

He won't budge on the price much though.

Yes Taz I know what I said above, an even safer option would have been not to have five kids... saftey is sometimes overrated!!!

I think the parker lights are there and tinted

Phil I'm in woy woy visiting my mrs folks, If your free this week p.m me and bring your car around so I can show them what an fto looks like in the flesh...

Pod filter is not enclosed either?
Do you think I should give it a miss? or what would be a fair offer for the car?

Offer to just take the stock rims/tyres, should reduce the price at least $1000.
....and I want the seats for my FTO

EDIT: Was the FTO you looked at today @ Lakehaven?
