You just get a bit tired of w#*kers offering you $20 grand and saying that “I saw one three grand cheaper the other day”. I’d be happy with $34000, that’s with all the gear on it, not sure if that’s being to optimistic. Cheers, Danny

Go the BA! you can pick them up cheap at the auctions eg 40k 17,000. I have a mild EF cat back 2.5 single muffler, reco head new lifter 8.8 leads, svo snorkel, K&N filter, lowered pedders suspension, nolathane rear end bushed & my Standard 2001 au2 eats it in every department except maybe up high in the revs but I am in the processs of rectifying that! Go the BA drove one last week great fun! value wise an Au wouldn't be bad either.

I chose the EF because you said you loved it to bits.
HOWEVER, don't just go ahead. Wait a bit of time and see if doing the EF is what you really want. After a month or two, you might realise that deep down, you don't really want it. In which case, keep it as a good reliable car and save your money.

People voted on it without posting, so it was up the top anyway. I didn't read the last post. Somebody else recently voted on this poll and put it to the top. Abuse them! Not me!
