Well, took the plunge today and Bought a P38a.

There was a sweet Classic LSE that if I had my way would have been in the driveway but her indoors got her way. I don't really mind, I like the P38's anyway.

It's a 96 HSE with 180km on it. Everything works and it has a full book history (Almost). They were asking $15999 for it and I paid less than that :D (by several Thousand).

It should make the drive to Cooma next year enjoyable. Pick it up on Friday.

Here are some pics from the Phone

Hope all goes well for you.

What's the deal with all the cars in the background?
Surely you haven't taken it to the wreckers already!

Not the dealer I would expect to see Her Majesty's carriage at.
Although wherever it came from I hope it serves you well.

Looks good Ash, nice buy.

I really like the P38a's, they look good with big alloys, not much use off road i know but they look good none the less. I am going to wait until i can afford to repair them i stuff goes wrong before i buy one. Matt

Since you live in "country" QLD, surely they can provide something more suitable?? If not a disco then a crewman or similar?

It's Gone, Sent it back underf the 5 day cooling off period. Had an overheating issue raise it's head on the drive home and didn't want to take the risk.

Thats a record even for me for the shortest time I've owned a vehicle.
