st.nick Posted October 28, 2005 Report Posted October 28, 2005 And they are set to go UP in price yet too!! A friend in the UK sent me a few autotrader pages with Sprinters (aka GTS in the UK) priced around 6000-7000 POUNDS!! Thats like $15k- $18k AUD boy and girls!! Quote
ancullen Posted October 29, 2005 Report Posted October 29, 2005 7k? Ouchy. Maybe $4000 isn't too bad for the one I can get up here with 100kW smallport. Quote
Tiger Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Ah well, he has the car now, so let him continue.... :jamie: You were saying? Quote
ROLLN'03 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Report Posted October 31, 2005 (edited) I found another one for 5k on toymods. 100kw motor, adjustable suspension, LSD, exhaust ETC........ But it was in Sydney, and was a DriFT BeaST......... - FLOGGED - The AE86 that i purchased has been well maintained, always garaged and is owned by a mechanic....... Its been with them for about fifteen years, re-sprayed 5 years ago, just been rebuilt, all new suspension, and it drives like a dream, and handles like you wouldnt believe............ I'm IN LOVE.............. :jamie: Edited November 2, 2005 by ROLLN'03 Quote
Tiger Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 And that's the main thing, dude! As long as you're happy with it... then :jamie: Quote

ROLLN'03 Posted November 2, 2005 Author Report Posted November 2, 2005 Hence, the price......... (SHMICK!) Future Mods; Well, suposedly I'm NOT allowed to modify it anymore than it is ATM, but i have a few plans........ - New rims, either Reverse Mesh OR Rewinds - Maybe a kit...??? - Quick Shift Kit - Definately a Colour change. - Engine Mods; Either a 100kw Hard Core N/A OR SUPERCHARGER!... Glad you all like it......! :D Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted November 3, 2005 Report Posted November 3, 2005 Very nice :D I believe a car is worth whatever you are willing to pay for it....if he REALLY wanted that car, he may not care if he had to pay 10 for it...Here in Canberra, dead standard neat sprinters are fetching 4-5 grand, so I think he has done well. (Plus it's red so it goes faster) Quote
ROLLN'03 Posted November 21, 2005 Author Report Posted November 21, 2005 Well, i picked up the Sprinter on Saturday morning...... The trip home went extremely well.....! A BIG thumbs up and salute goes to Damien for being so great with the whole procedure and also for all his wonderous worksmanship with the car.... Its handles like you wouldnt believe, and goes like a "ZERTEC"! Still getting used to the heavy duty clutch though....... Quote
