Topping up Smiths vending machines all over Brisbane, he never serviced it, nor looked after it. Went for years with close to 500k kms on it. Pretty bulletproof i thought. Again no pics. Tidy S15 Silvia, apart from wheels and exhaust looked totally standard. Timeless design

Agreed but also a magnitude better in price, but yes a much better car. Also really hard to find in a manual.

Magna 380 SX, bright green metallic, has been parked on the street for a long time, tyres flat; elsewhere a VRX, bronze colour, still in use.

Issue is the styling. C4 by far the best styling of any generation to my eyes. C5 doesn’t come close.

Didn't get a great look at it, and it was only from the 5 o'clock position, but caught sight of an x series Falcon panel van. What got my attention was that it was in the factory red colour. As above, they're rare enough to see, but you don't see many non-white ones around.
Looked to have standard rego, too.

Yeah, ok. Late x series. Is that betterer?
![]() Something in the XD to XH range. As I said, I only caught it from the back so hard to tell exactly what model it was.

I see one of these not far from my work. It seems to be a daily driver and has historic number plates.

Vn Exec with its original bin lid hubcaps, and half hour later I saw a EA GL with its original telephone hubcaps.
