Bloody ute!

Bloody ute!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>sounds like the better option... I wouldnt bother with mods with the T5, when it dies to fix it with a new T56 would cost more than upgrading to a MKII!easy descision.

Chooka<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Pffft! Best way is to just get a tow bar and reverse in till you hit the wall!!! Only works on brick walls though...Good ole touch parking!!! Chris

Chris <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Hahaha, The week I'm having, lol, that sounds like a grand option, just hope the job is done 1st attempt. Came so so close to saying yes to a fully optioned MKII Velocity XR8 sedan today, $12,800 change over, may still do it, the day is young...lol.

dunc Member 50 Member For: 23y 1m 27d Location: Melbourne Posted 01/12/05 11:50 PM Posted 01/12/05 11:50 PM (edited) Amazing some of the ideas that come out of brainstorming.... heheHow about fixing a small mirror to the wall at about bonnet height just at the "right" angle so you can see how close the front number plate is from the wall.... or you could rent some space in my 4 car garage...lol. Best (or maybe one and only) thing the that owned the house previously did.... Edited 01/12/05 11:52 PM by dunc

It's a "cozy" little place. Need less space in the roomy lounge/family area and more car space......Oh well.Haha, width isn't the problem but I'd still have to be careful. length definatley is the problem. Have to seriously take up jogging or power walking every morning, not be such a fat lol.Or, just buy the Foon I looked at today
