I suppose I am here for the first time, but I still have my B-series......for now. Always wanted an EB2. It's the last model starting from the XD that I haven't owned yet.

I can relate to this.
I have been driving XR8's since 1993. (Hey 20 years in XR8's) Two E series XR8's - an EB SXR8 (with worked motor) for 6 years, an EF (stocky) for about 10 years, now in a BA XR8. Still miss that EB. Now my kids have been learning and getting licences and I wouldn't let them drive the BA!!! So we've been running around learning in an EF Futura and EL Fairmont. Now they both have their licences and driving those two cars I missed driving 'em!! Sooo. just bought a 5 litre EL Fairmont low km on gas!! New daily for me, the BA has been relegated to the back shed!! Gotta keep the kays down. So three E series in the driveway, and two V8's for me. |
