The 2 litre diesel has saved me a lot of money, also nice to drive, but for hitting a kangaroo. The technology has become ever complicated though, and I wonder if it might be time to let go and get something less personal?


Having said that I love my MC more than any car I've had.
The EF falcon did 50000km but felt more like boat.

I think it's worth a shot at a $1500 wrecker rebuild - I don't think I'd put 3 or 4K into a transmission rebuild for a car with 400K km on it.

Reality is, second hand cars a stupid expensive at the moment, and I dont want to put $20K into another ex fleet wagon. I looked at a 2012 low km wagon at Pickles Dubbo a couple of weeks ago, pretty rough (stove in tailgate), but it went for $9500 - I paid 13 for the same 6 years ago
