The actual physics and handling wasn't too bad though. Used to love hitting 202mph in the Diablo on the coastal road, knowing that doing so meant you would crash at the next bend.

Brought myself a new daily, A repossessed XR6 BA MK2, previous owner only had it for 2 months obviously decided he had more important things to pay for. Forgot how nice they drive when the diff bushes and suspension bushes aren’t all flogged. Had to get a new set of keys cut too - $460

Polished some rims for a 1988 VL Walkinshaw
I did wonder why someone would want to polish a set of standard rims
But the plastic pig is an Aussie classic
Edit: took aprox 6 hours each

Almost bought one back in the early 90's.

 

Turned it down because the front spoiler would scrape on my driveway.

It only had 180 kW @Rab , you wouldn't have liked it

I remember taking a VN 5.0 L  Calais for a test drive from a dealer (second hand)

Salesman said it had a "chip" in it.

Floored it , drove it back to the yard disappointed   (168 kW STD)

Told the salesman "not enough power"
