Hi,

Looking to buy my first XR6T (BA onwards). I live in Sydney. I've seen some cheap dealers ads for $16k but I'm guessing when I call the dealer, I'll be informed the ad had a 'typo' but we have an XR6T for $10k more...

Great site!

Cheers

There are a few cheap ones getting around at the moment, fuel prices have scared alot of people off.

Do plenty of reading through the forum as there is a heap of info, especially on what to look out for and so-on

Welcome mate

If you could up your budget to around 22-25 you will get an awsome T, good luck mate.

Welcome Nige. compliments on your taste in cars.

Like Senna said, everyone seems to be downsizing to prius and smart cars because of rising petrol prices/cost of living etc. so take your time searching there will be a bargain out there somewhere.

Thanks for the welcome guys. I'm in no real rush so I'll keep hunting around.

Apart from holes in the dash, what signs can I look for to determine if the car is an ex chaser? Premium brake package seems to be 1 identifier.

To answer this question it would greatly help to know what state your buying from.

The car manuel itself will state who the original owner is.

But do up your budget to avoid an old car with high k's and hassles.

I would guess he'll buy from sydney IB, you can tell him what to look out for in that case

watch out for the nutters

Yeah I missed his first line somehow, but ultimately if your trying to buy an ex-polce car or avoiding buying one, then the original ownership sticker at the back of the book will be of great help.

Dont just rely on holes, many ppl and other goverment agencies like the waterboard, RTA have additional equipment that these holes are for.
