Re: Obtaining information about SVX's in Australia

Hi!

I just stumbled onto this topic, as I haven't been on this forum for quite a while!

When I first acquired an SVX (back in January 2004), there were several other owners in Sydney who were very keen on these cars - but now, there aren't many left!

From what I have seen, the number of SVXs in Sydney has definitely dropped over the last 5 to 10 years, and good examples are very hard to find.

A good friend of mine has seen that yellow SVX that you saw around Windsor, and he showed me a photo of it.

That SVX had a black roof, which is not how those cars were painted from the factory (factory yellow SVXs were painted yellow all over, including the roof). That would imply that this particular SVX was not originally yellow.

Jason.
