Hi everyone. Bought a Barina SRi at auction today. Black, 05/03 (I'm assuming this means May 03?)

Haven't even had a chance to have a proper look at it yet - apparently it was damaged in the recent storms. Fingers crossed it hasn't gone for a swim...

Anyway - the plan is to run it in gravel khanacrosses, so if anyone's keen for the interior or other bits when it gets stripped, lemme know.

Is there anything I should know about this particular model? I hear some of them had non-switchable traction control?399439953996

Cheers - looks like a good forum you've got here.

Perth members are due for a cruise pretty soon. So make yourself known to Shay. He's the cruise co-ordinator and will keep you informed.

Welcome mate :)

Hey, welcome mate.

Great start for autocross.
the 1.8 gos very well in that car. easily keep up with the rest of us on the straights, and go kart through corners.

you'll make yourself a few bucks selling those headlights too, if you a not worried about looks...

Autocross eh? Which clubs run auto crosses in Perth? I've run a few swtcc events down south, but not for a few years..

Well, we picked the car up, and it seems to run well. Will need a new windscreen and battery, then we should be good to rego.

Not bad for $1500!

On the topic of headlights, I take it these aren't factory jobbies.

Any idea of what sort of price they'd go for?
