takumi tax my ass

[gunbz-r]

well, for 2 weeks i have been searchin for a cheap daily, u know 3months rego under 1g deal, problem is it doesnt exist, so the nice little surprise of tak tax, doesnt just apply to e7 or 86's anymore

i looked at near on 15 cars today, and not one is worth what they are askin, things like vls with 1 month reg and blown headgaskets for 1200, or rusted out ke55's with no rego for 1500, where are all the 1000 vn's that used to get around, its all bullshit i tell ya

seriously a year ago i could of bought anything from an ae92 auto hatch with 6 months rego to a vl with 10months for under 1000, ow if a car has more than 6 months they want 2g's+, d**kin dreamers imagin what a world it would be with out em

Dude i'm the other way around. Six months ago i tried to sell my AE95 4wd Wagon for $1000. No takers except one guy that tried to tell me that it had a miss which was really just the valves opening and closing. Got pissed off with the whole ordeal and put in on the road for under $300. It's the sweetest daily ever for that price.

need to look harder mate!!

but you will not be able to buy a regoed car, or get a car rego'd for under 1000$, unless you can get a fudged rwc or have a a parts car of the same one already in your backyard. or know ppl with parts coming out their ears.

i thought i could beat the system, i got my ke70 for 400$, and thought id get it all done cheap. turned out i needed to replace a bunch of stuff, and even doing all the work myself i didnt get much change out of 1200$ total for the purchase of the vehicle, a genuine rwc and rego/insurance etc.

bottom line

cars are expensive!

[gunbz-r]

yeah cars are expensive, but there actually isnt much around, well not in sydney anyway, all the good ones ill have to go for a 4 hour drive both ways, bit much for a 1g car, ahwell somethin will show up but i need it now

[Fozz]

its true i think people are trying to flog of 4 cylinder cars for morethan there worth cause of high petrol prices the guys down the road from me are selling a 93 ford laser for $3000

[gunbz-r]

thats what i mean man, how can they justify that

[HachiRoku]

Pfft, keep looking.

I recently bought a Fiat 126 as a project, (cost $800 in excellent nick, bit of rego left), which would make an awesome daily if I so desired to use it as such. 650cc 2cyl RWD fuel economy FTW!

[ke70dave]
