Hey, really interested in this car.
However, where will i get this one imported from? I'm going to hazard a guess that you are living with your great nans uncles real brother in Italy, or Spain - well wherever, suprise me! I'm happy to give you some money for it if you get it imported!

Hit me up ASAP - its a lush car!

Thanks

Could be wrong but Monaro handling > Mini?

I very much doubt that. They are a high performance, comfy, decent looking coupe at a very good price.

Bang for buck there isn't many other cars that compete.

If it weren't for top gear, nobody i know would even look at the car twice. Of course there will be the car enthusiasts that buy a car for what it is but i SERIOUSLY doubt it would have had half the people looking into a vauxhall that it did if it wasn't for clarkson saying it was amazing and then hammond having the d1 drifters put it sideways.
You'd be surprised what an effect that show makes on the public's car opinions. Anyone i've ever spoken to who has not seen the show/episodes asks me wtf i'm talking about when i refer to a monaro. You just can't argue that a LOT of people have no opinion of their own and simply agree with whatever they say.

Just what i like to see, personal digs!
Nothing better.

Comparing a 6L V8 with 390 odd Bhp to a whiney 4pot with 170bhp. OCuK at its finest.

By the way.

Mini > Astra... In everyway.

I've only driven a Monaro with traction control on in the rain.

'Tis and awesome car tho, pull amazingly even in high gears (probably due to lots of torques).

I've been in one as a passenger and for it's size it outhandles so many cars I've been in. It's easy to slide too which rocks!

It is a relatively heavy car, but boy it doesn't feel it.
