SPOTTED: In South Oz
 
Spotted a SAM 323 Astina on late Sat arvo parked in the BP servo. Then 5 mins after a nice shiny red Familia on Cross Keys Rd had rims but couldnt see what. Was in the Pajero with the Boat on the back.

Came out of Primo Modbury after an average feed last night to a new Grey MPS 3 parked in front of our 800 SP I think its plates were MPSSP3? Made the night get better :)

Sam_323 18-08-2011 11:07 AM

lolzies... that'd be me working on sat arvo...

as for spotted... On tues, spotted a white familia sedan with familia badgeing on front and familia text across rear centre reflector, and a white gtx/gtr with lower spoiler on same road - Magill rd later that day... good day... :)

jonnyman 22-08-2011 11:18 PM

was driving home from school today, and going past Ingle Farm shopping centre saw this very attractive grey BG astina ;) sounding very nice and looking the same ;)

knew it was a member of this forum cause of the big "astinagt.com" decal on the front window ;D

Sam_323 23-08-2011 12:43 PM

That sounds quite familia... ;)
...pretty sure i happened to see another SP running next to me for a bit...
not for a long time tho... ;)

jonnyman 23-08-2011 05:31 PM

haha yep that was me ;) Pretty sure i heard a bit of a blow-off there, bit of an unfair advantage seems mines a little old stocky ;)

Sam_323 24-08-2011 12:08 PM

good to see another member on the road... :D
still... stock astinas are quite nimble, u were in second keeping up a bit... :P
shhh... no blow-off valve installed... ;)

jonnyman 24-08-2011 11:15 PM

haha yeah it goes when ya put your foot down, get over 3000RPM and thats when i get a better kick :P gets to 80kmh in second pretty easy :)

Sam_323 25-08-2011 12:04 PM

If you spot a stock white BG Astina Hatch on Tapley's Hill Rd outside a bunch of warehouses, that's me ;)

Keeping an eye out for members now :)

Sam_323 20-11-2011 07:48 PM

i was in my asty, and was like FAMILIAAAAAAAAA!

xeon8 18-12-2011 06:23 PM

I have seen mynameisdaniel's SP20 around the place, numerous times in fact. Nice to look at the photos on the forums, but it gets even better when you actually see it in real life!

Haha thanks mate, hopefully you'll see someone else driving it soon and hopefully they'll take just as good care of it :) I'll keep an eye out for you :)

If you've only seen it recently it usually looks much cleaner, I've had to leave it out of the garage twice in the past few weeks (apart from short drives) and it's rained both times!

xeon8 28-12-2011 05:06 PM

Saw mynameisdaniel's SP20 again, scored a park next to it at TTP today.

I've also seen a few Familia's around the place, and Sam_323's Famila too. Other than that, just a few worked Mazda3's and some other Protege's around the place. Don't ask for the number plates, I am hopeless at remembering them haha

Sam_323 29-12-2011 12:56 PM

she a pretty thing... aint she... :)
saw a white auto for bg astina sale today while on my walk... thinking about buying it... :/ want a white SP though...

Sam_323 06-01-2012 10:29 PM

Spotted Red BA hatch in Athelstone tonight on my walk... almost best number plate... AA323F...

SLY 323t 28-01-2012 11:06 AM

Oh well my bad... Havent been on here for a while. Knew it was for sale last year but did'nt know if it was sold. Still looks great mate but was getting a bit of a work out! What did you buy instead?

Haha all good, it's a hard car to drive sensibly :p

Nothing yet, trying to find a Subaru Liberty GT Spec B at the moment :)

SLY 323t 28-01-2012 11:38 AM

Nice!!!! only 50 of them... is that right?

mynameisdaniel 28-01-2012 05:56 PM

Umm not quite, there was a tuned by STI version released that they only released 250 of. Don't like my chances of finding one of those though. Still hard to find one as I want it in manual and pearl white ;)

Clean_Cookie 28-01-2012 06:26 PM

saw a white one yesterday and thought of you. looked pretty sweet, its the colour I want to paint my astina when it gets done.

ps that was a sti tuned one too :D

mynameisdaniel 28-01-2012 06:55 PM

Haha nice :D The white only came out on the 08 STI one and they're closer to 45K so that's not going to happen :'(

Clean_Cookie 28-01-2012 07:55 PM

cant you just buy an STI badge? thats gotta be a cheaper option :D

Haha I could, doesn't quite have the benefits of Brembos, better suspension and more power though :P

Drift Thorpey 02-02-2012 05:54 PM

Ive been seeing a dark green BG Astina hatch in the Grange area?
Dunno if he's on here or not, but I've waved a few times and just got blank stares. nice car bud ;)

xeon8 24-02-2012 07:28 PM

Saw SAM 323's grey BG today, driving down Montacute Road, passing the Coles shopping centre :P

Sam_323 25-02-2012 07:35 AM

Yeah u did... :P

SLY 323t 27-02-2012 10:20 AM

Saw a nice red familia with white rims Stanbel rd salisbury plain last Friday morning. Don't think I have seen it around, looked and sounded sweet.

xeon8 27-02-2012 05:32 PM

Saw a grey Mazda3 MPS on the way to uni this morning. Looked awesome but sounded even better, the owner obviously dumped some well spent money into it!

Drift Thorpey 27-02-2012 11:16 PM

Spotted a bunch of stock BG Astinas which I now see the full effect my springs have had on my cars image... much nicer.
Side note, busted a bunch of 31's goin for skidz out near Largs tonight

If my law enforcement you mean keeping scout for cops, then yes, I was enforcing my Laws ;)

I keep seeing a dark green BG with what look like 16's or larger, standard height, quite clean, around the Grange/Findon area?

Side Note: Nick Im shifting back up your way at the end of the month for 6 weeks. Get goods ordered and what not, we be doin a makeover on your Protege ;)

xeon8 06-03-2012 11:15 PM

Spotted a red MX5 today at Supercheap Auto down at Hectorville today. Red with white rims (looked almost like Advan RGII's), full roll cage, full exhaust... sounded mean and looked tough!
