Sold the Hilux.
Went to Palmy and got the new car drove back took ages but was fun until the battery died in Matamata and the rear diff started making a funny noise. Try to contact the previous owner and have had no reply. Thats ok though I still got them down from $8500 to $5200 but now I no why they dropped there price for me. Owell its still cheaper than any other V5 WRX wagon out there.

Re: 2nd - 3rd April
Had a pretty decent weekend. Worked a 12 hour day on saturday then picked up a bottle of this on the way home:

Then took this out on sunday:

I have to say they are bloody fun
was throwing people off the biscuit at 55mph

Wish i had more pics of when i got bored and started doing big 180s at 35mph
