Default Cars

Hi all

We have a scorpio ultima, fully loaded, hubby loves the car. We would like to ship it over but the costs....... no way.
So, does anyone have any info on aussie cars that would stop hubby from becoming emotional. Boyz and their toyz.....help.

Cheers

Karen

Hi Karen

We've just got back from WA and they really do like their big engines, despite the low top speed limits. 3 litre entry level, 4 litre OK, saw a 5 litre+ 4WD monster in the airport carpark that my lad liked, could park the Scorpio in the boot.

He should have no trouble consoling himself with a nice V8 4 litre something or other.

Happy motoring

Nick

Thanks Edwin

He's out there cleaning the car now! I'm sure this will get him to come indoors. He's not really a sad git.

Cheers

Take a look at http://www.movingdownunder.co.uk/files/motoring.php Links to new and used car sales so you can get an idea of prices etc.

I used to be a scorpio driver - the fuel costs finally got to me and I've become Mr Boring, would you believe a diesel mondeo?

Anyway, the point is get him to look at the Ford Falcon XR8. Mind you - you'll probably still need the tissues to clear up the drool.

Cheers
