Hi, I know this may seem in appropriate but I have not looked at this site in many a month (couple of years) and I noticed BUCKNAKEDs beast is for sale. IS THIS STILL THE CASE. I was a member of aufalcon.com but due to time and divorce, I havent seen the site in a while and my membership seemed to have elapsed.
Anyway, BUCKNAKEDs beast has always been a favourite. Probably gone now at that price but was wondering if it' still available. Just spent an hour trying to log on and contact him directly. Am I to be dissapointed??? |

To explain, I have been driving a Mazda 3 for the last few years as a commuter so probably lost the passion. Now heading for divorce and not commuting so far, back into the XR6 and loving it! She called it a death trap but for a 250k km + car, it has no rattles pr squeaks and I am loving driving it. Actually got back in touch with the site by looking to over ride the adaptive shift and having it full time on performance mode! It's like a different car....And lovin git. But as I said before, Bucky's has always been a favourite.....unless there was an issue with the car itself....? |

No issues I know of with Bucky's car - in fact I made him an offer for it, which he rejected. He is now driving one of those little hairdryer things - XR5 turbo, or something like that.

XR5???? The thing that made me drive a Mazda was that they were part of the Ford family and given that and for a similar price, he should have gone for a Mazda 3 MPS! Still a Ford. The XR5 seems good too though. But as I said, Bucky's has always been a favourite of mine. Not a Manwell but outside of that, just missing a Turbo. Then again, considering the state of my license, I don't really need one.....

Yep nothing wrong with Buckys XR6, infact it would probably be one of the best examples here no doubt !
My last contact with him not long ago he still had her so you maybe lucky but JC will let us know soon enough.

Now, Bucky does change his mind like we all change our undies (I would hope) but this much loved XR6 is fully up for sale, ready to leave his garage where it is lovingly stored.
Car sales link.
