Who's ACTIVE in South Australia on AstinaGT!!!???

Ok so, there was a thread on this ages ago but lets do a re-cap... Who's actually on this site, and active? I.e - Will come on cruises and try and keep up with Miki's crazy antics up Gorge Road

So far I can only see it as...

1. Tom - That's me In my BG
2. Miki - BA
3. Sam - Grey B00000sted BG

Anyone else lingering?

I am, but I am affraid the astina is about to go. Had someone hit my rear quarter panel last night and mess it up. Must have tried to drift while wet or something last night and lost it into my car. F***ing spewing. Gonna fix it up, and hopefully sell it.

Make me an offer.

Wanna sell it and buy a BMW 318ti 5speed.

Sad, sad daym but hopefully ill have a new car by the end of this week.

Ah man, abandoning me.

Still be keen to cruise with ya when you come about your new ride, though.

Why a Beemer? Assume you mean an oldschool one?

1998 BMW 318ti (touring international).(also knows as e36 compact, i think). Its got the m3 running gear in it. 1.9L 5 speed, leather trim, Z3 front and rear suspension, huge brakes, sunroof. Really really nice car. Newer lower k's than mine and looks heaps fun to drive, handles wickedly.

Ofcorse we'll still cruze together. Always man. I don't expect to leave AGT either. Really good place and good people so i think ill hang around. Besided ill always have a soft dpot for the astina. Love the car. Trying to sell it to someone i know so that way i can see it from time to time.

hey man, finally posted something ey?

Why have you bn quiet. We always like an extra car in our cruises, an astina is a bonus.

I say do a cruise in a couple of weeks. I should get mine to a panel beaters next week and then when i get it back id like one more run through the hills before i potentially say goodbye to the old girl.

You should look into fixing that. I know of this great BA astina (hardtop) for sale. Great car, really nice and quick and has a brand new clutch and all. Won't have thrust bearing problems that your GTi has now.

Seriously, look into it.

Get a silencer for your exhaust. A drive that long would drive anyone mad.

true, too big an exhaust = farting sound. Not good.
