Gez this guy must have done a lot to this car since he bought it of Ebay for about $5500 only a couple of months ago, I though the original price was good, I cant see any aárms, twin turbo v6 or king shocks. I must be dreaming.

He was even too lazy to change the original txt and original photos from when he purchased it from the previous owner !!!  Check his feedback and you can still see the original add !!

Supa TOOL !!!

hahaha I couldn't help myself... emailed him asking details on car, etc. Got an email back telling me how great it was, etc. I then asked if he was open to offers, to which he replied it would have to be a good offer as he had soo much interest in it, etc and it was such a great car.... so I offered him $3k. I don't even have that to pay him for it as I don't want it, but I thought it was worth a laugh... he came back again saying it was worth so much more then that, so I sent him a link to afew cars for sale at present on different sites that are 100 times better and less price...

hahaha! I got told to 'make an offer'. Ive pointed out that his history says he paid 5.5k for it. I should have asked what "outback racing" its legal for!

I love the "dobson", air cleaner & the "fermo" fan. I wonder how he knows it's a 2 litre engine, the only way that engine is two litre, is if it has been bored & stroked. A factory 2 litre has the exhaust coming out under the cyl head, not at the end.

I just had a look at this one. Holy Cow!!!! What a weapon.
hahahaha.

And Stingray your right. I just put a 2L engine in my Road beetle. And to do so it requires a machined case, Bigger Barrels and Pistons and A Stroked Crank. I would love to know how he knows this.

But then again. They are AWESOME.... tires. heheheee

This car would be a bargain race car. Standard VW frontend, 15 year old shocks, standard rear suspension ect, gee it would be great to run this car in pro-lite who needs 12" of wheel travel not me that stuff is for pussy's. I will see if he will take $30,000 before the end of the auction l don't want to miss out but if l do l could lower myself and buy Kelvins car but l will have to soften up a bit and l doubt if Kelvin's car has a grumpy engine. All you soft A/Arm car drivers should just shut up and stop being haters of the bullet proof Funco. (This means you Wolf)

hey to all you wankers who seem to have nothing better to do than carry on like complete tools.. Now just to put your minds at rest......i am well aware of the fact that i paid F#@k all for this thing.......and thanks to all for pointing that out.....just love people who state the obvious...glad to see you can all read! Has anyone stopped to think for a minute that $5500 is a cheap paddock basher and to those that pointed out that i was too lazy to change the ad from which i bought the car.......well spotted....to be honest i was too busy  playing with tittys and poking pussy  in my spare time to be bothered to write up a new ad which is why i am a fan of the cut and paste features....And yep.......glad you guys are well skilled in the art of researching ebay feedback.......and i couldnt be bothered sorting that out either ! Like yourselves there  a stack of wankers in this world with a stack of money to blow on stupidly overpriced toys  and i have the time to wait for one of these twats to come along. Done it many times before and no doubt i will do it again .In the meantime i will thrash the life out of it will gladly pay the $4.00 ebay ad  while i  wait for one of these tools to come along and gladly take their money.And if they dont i will gladly send it to the wrecker or leave it where it dies.no dramas there. So i hope that you can all move on now with your lives and find something a little more constructive to do in your spare time. And if you thought i got excited about ebay enquires from you guys........the jokes on you blokes. Unless there a tits involved i generally remain pretty chilled out. Oh and a message to 960mike .........glad you can read.F#@k  you sound like a smart bloke. So....happy trails to you all....might be time to find yourselves a new hobby in your spare time.Ahhhh by the way if you have any enquiries it would be great if you would  concentrate on sending me enquiries in english rather than the uneducated shit that you all seem to come out with....but to be honest i wouldnt expect anything to intelligent from you blokes !

glad to see you join our site. we are happy for any comments but this is a family club and forum so please what the what you say there could be little ones around.

as for our comments most are harmless fun and well you will find a wanker that will buy it i'm sure but it won't be anyone in offroad racing as you may have work out.

i wish you all the best in the sale and maybe you will hang around and find out that we aren't all cashed up wanker most of our race cars cost less then your asking price but as with every sport there are the people with big money or who have spent the time to build big dollar cars.
