Hi all,
Just found the link to this forum via wikipedia. Haven't had a chance to look around yet, but I love my stock boring @$$ JSII GL sedan. 5M of course. I look forward to getting to know everyone.

More info on me:
I like to slap my car around but with due respect.
I live on the Sunshine Coast.
I don't know jack diddly about practical car maintenance, but aim to learn alot.

Here is my poor abused beyatch! My daily commuter, we occasionally do upto 1350k/week but usually around 750. In the last 12 months we have donated $450 to Peter Beatties christmas party:mad: (and no, the wheels aren't always that dirty.):p

Thanks bot. Nice wheels. My road to work doesn't quite lend itself to anything harder than 16's:o. I would love to do some work to my JSII but kids come first at the moment. Maybe when I put them to work, I can pick up some ZC 05 CD 16s.:D

Yep, specifically to see what pics they had. I had been having a posting bash with a few members on GMI (http://www.gmiinsidenews.com/forums)

I have been on that site for about 18 months and had a lot to do with one of the guys who helped compose a lot of the automotive knowledge on there at the moment. We had a disagreement about the value of the Mondeo vs. the Vectra and how Jeremy Clarkson is a Mondeo bonking nonce. :D
But that's one of the reasons I like that forum. Most discussions are (loosely) fact based and then you can occasionally get away with a bit of Oz humour and they walk around scratching their heads

Anyway, thanks for the g'days, I'll be around.

Haha! I'm back! Can't believe I joined here almost 6 years ago! Perhaps that is the reason the forum said I was banned. :D

For the record, I still have "Victoria" and she just passed 280,000kms.



and Yes. I washed the wheels. :D
