Where's the pic's man? And what is it, T1, T2 or T3?

Talking of TS50's and good buying.. there's a T1 TS50 for sale for 26'000. It is the one and only T1 TS50 build it Venom Red (not a colour available at the time). Was a special order and owned by Geoff Polites. I'm sure the current owner is a member of these forums.

There's a T3 TE50 for sale in St Mary's (NSW).
didn't get to see the price ... drove past it though ... custom blue slimline pates on it.
Immaculate condition.

can't believe how cheap they are despite the km's. And here is me thinking my 99 XR8 (with complete Tickford kit and wheels) would be worth around $21k with 135,000km...

I wish I could buy it, but I would never get insurance, and I couldnt extend my loan as I just lost my job.
