Looks a nice unit
I see you mentions a 2lt Petrol Surf, if you are looking for cheap-to-run careful heading down that road. I had one and it was not cheap to run. Running about 7 mins each way four times a day for about a week and a half of was about $90. When I filled it up after that I walked into the house and offered it to the first person I saw (plumber that was working on my house) and he bought it and I got the diesel cruiser.

Are you really that keen top sell. Your beast went well up Thomos. If you like and its only a thought, we might be keen to do a deal on your wheels. Could put some cash in your pocket and our AT's and mags on your truck!
Cheers Rod

Half the cc rating doesn't matter a hell of a lot with modern wagons, My old VR Commodore with the 3.8 ecotec motor was more economical than the wife's BZ touring Corolla 1600 rice burner. The Commode is seriously underrated in the economy stakes and I'm told the later Ecotec motors are even better
). She said she was told there's a year (probably the year ecotec came out maybe, I don't know much about these things) that's sort of a cut off point and anything below was a bit of a guzzler and anything above had more modern technology that made it a completely different engine consumption wise. Think it was mid to late 90's maybe?.
