FTO AUSTRALIA

Sooo it looks like I have found A car
1996 GPX manual, 123,XXX Kms, completely stock
He has accepted my offer, and it will be picked up and driven down on monday, unless someone else makes a better offer he said no one else has shown much interest though, apart from 2 test drives.
So it looks to be almost certainly mine



it's a bit more than i would like to have spent, but for the condition of it, I'm quite happy

I've now paid for it, and my Dad is driving it down for me from Christchurch tomorrow
I'll get some good pics of it uploaded tomorrow

Looking forward to seeing it!

Although you may see me shaking my fist from across the ocean.

So it is here now
Just some quick snaps for the time being, as it is 8PM....







And the added bonus that I didn't expect

Looks good mate.

Congratulations on the buy.

Wow small world just realized I'm a friend of a friend of yours I know Aaron I am going skiing in August with him in NZ nice FTO man we have 2 of them there a nice car I hope you have fun working on it

Will say again.

Screw you scoring those gauges.


Car looks good meanwhile, looks like the mis-aligned panel issue was fixed...

Haha yea, Glad I got the gauges
The panels look all right, could still do with a little work though.

Haha, small world indeed, as I'm going on the ski trip too
Both Nick and I will be driving up in our FTOs

Finally cleared out the garage so that I can park it inside.
So I decided I will give the car it's first wash since I got it on Monday
Looks much better now

That's got a facelift steering wheel?

An Air-Bag Wheel, I believe it was optional...

Yeah optional.

Great looking car mate. Well done !

Looking good, isn't it amazing what difference a good wash makes
(then it rains and you have to do it all over again)

Thanks guys
Yea it looks muuuch better now that it has been washed.
I've never seen this car clean before haha, when I went to view it, the previous owner didn't have time to wash it, and when it arrived here it was dirty

I waited until the garage had been cleared out before I washed it though, as it's been raining most of the week

And now not only is the outside clean, but the inside is spic and span! Hired the rug doctor and cleaned both Braydons and mine!
