went furniture shopping on the weekend the only space in the car park was next to this white svx, what are the odds? it belongs to a member called James if he still owns it

So maybe 7 in Canberra now then?

There's one sitting at a dealership in Fyshwick (the $7999 one) and there was another one sitting by the side of the road in Belconnen for sale...but that's probably gone now.

Cool

When mine is going again, we should have a get together!!

Rob,

I haven't checked it out, but would be happy to if you were interested. The rear wing looks a bit weird?

the bonnet has flaking paint apparently. interior fair, but still decent

long drive for me if i chose to look..

dynomatt · #**232** 04-19-2007, 10:05 PM

It's just down the road for me if you want me to have a look.

Do you reckon it's a JDM one? with the wing and the different rear garnish?

I wonder.

dynomatt · #**234** 04-19-2007, 10:10 PM

it is a jdm 4 wheel steer svx the colour is black with a mica metalic red i took it for a spin once

dynomatt · #**236** 04-19-2007, 11:05 PM

Really...what's the deal with it? how was it imported? Is it a dodgy plate swap or private import?

Genuine 4WS too? Cool.

'E' · #**237** 04-20-2007, 02:11 AM

no its not dodgy it came in as a personal import. i took it for drive this after noon and it sounds very unloved it's a bit rough

It is obviously a JDM import, that's the JDM style rear wing OK.

If you are definitely interested do check out one thing. So far as I know, all the cars with motorised 4WS were called Version L. They have a different chassis designation than the non-active 4WS cars.

The "normal" cars that most of the world got all have a chassis number beginning CXW.

The 4WS ones all start with CXD. This will be shown on the plate on the lhs front suspension turret.

The only reason I mention this is the Carpoint details a number for this car of
CW378076-967.

If that's a misprint for CXW, then the car may not actually be the active 4WS version.

You could always check the plate, and look underneath the back axle, where you would expect to see the steering arms and servo motor.

If you are paying for it, it's best to ensure you are getting what's described

was trying to sort out my registration with vicroads today, after waiting about 25minutes on the phone, to get thru to where i wanted, this young kid, spent about 10minutes talking about my car. then told me there was one in a vicroads carpark in melb where he worked.... told this guy to point him towards the website..

saw a black svx today in Belconnen seen it before it's a bit rough but looking better than before the guy that owns it bought it a year ago. i think we need to organise a bit of a meet in canberra
