AU1 XR6 - Going to look at one tomorrow arvo - Page 2

One problem I had with my VCT XR6 was an oil leak out of the VCT idler. Which is that circular silver thingy at the front of the rocker cover that has the Tickford badged component sticking out. An interesting problem to rectify...

Not trying to put you off, but be sure to check it when the engine bay hasnt been just cleaned.

like i said, we managed to negotiate it down to 4k...

Thts a good price,does it come with waranty?

XRGhia · 09-03-2011, 10:25 PM

my mum did...

she always gets her way.. somehow.

its a nice car, goes well and all, but it all depends on how this finance goes..

i never will be paying too much for something

edit: oh yeah, it does.. only 6 months though.. im sure after a car cruise if anything stuffs up, it can be claimed under warranty

I found one for you when you find the coin lol

i looked at it the other day, i go past that yard on the way home from work. very very nice au imo. would i spend 20k on an au? not unless it was a t3 lol

thats one of those yards that has some very nice rides in there, not just stock stuff.

actually quite nice stock

T3-TS50 · 10-03-2011, 07:39 PM

How did you go Tony,did your dad buy the red one?

XRGhia · 10-03-2011, 08:12 PM

we're awaiting for the finance to be approved unforunately...

hopefully this is approved cause my week is getting worse and worse (now featuring a stuffed disc in my lower spine)

we should find out within the next two days

obviously your mum flogged the codds out of it during her spin...lol... wont hurt it anyway, i think its a solid buy for that money..

XRGhia · 11-03-2011, 01:18 AM

yeap, well i can only hope that the loan is approved..

we applied for a little more just so we can get the EF back on the road running perfectly, do the exhaust, paintwork, windows (drivers side manual winder is stuffed)

then just donate the rest back to the guys we're getting the finance through

funny that it comes with warranty. I just brought a AU1 XR8 with just over240 on the clock but warranty on cars here drops off at 240 unless you pay 1500 for extended

XRGhia · 11-03-2011, 06:13 PM

i'll have a look and make a phonecall, but the bloke did say all cars that he sells comes with 6-months warranty...

oh well, doubt i'll use it, but still good to have it

Reaper8 · 11-03-2011, 07:03 PM

ya i didnt find out till i was handin over the money, nearly pulled out but loved the car, mine has the momo options, 17's, full body kit, 5 spd and lpg so it ticked all the box's for me. double the price your gettin yours for but again love the car.
