Re: I got one

.......woohooooooo!!!!!!



I just realised - I saw your old Grey SVX way back in 2004, near Epping Road at North Ryde. I remembered the number plate MRS-17J - and I had no idea who owned it........

......I was driving the other way in my Grey SVX............



Looks good - I didn't know that they came in black here - what model year is it?

Re: I got one

Would not be me you saw with that number plate. My black '93 has SVX200 on them. Then I had my dad's grey '92 for a while, it had QLD plates, then purple plates JH0205.

Plates MRS17J on this were on it when I bought it. I just ordered some today SVX042 (because 42 is the answer) and they will be ... PURPLE !!! So, if you see those, around Gosford, that will be ME. I might have to laminate a little card that says I am a member of here, so if anyone sees it, they will know.

The plate inside the door says Sept 1992. I think some of it has been re-sprayed, the front bumper has pinkish sparkles in it that are not in the body of the car.

Wink Re: I got one

Yeah, thanks guys. I thought it was in pretty good condition. I am scared to take it to my mechanic though. I know there will be a lot that is not good.

I put a battery in it already. The fuse box under bonnet is not installed properly, so the cover does not stay on it. The back wheels need swapping they are backwards. Something is making noises under the car. All in all I think it was a good buy for $5700.

Anyone know where I can get purple or pink window tint?

Re: I got one

For a truly psychedelic experience try Googling Owesley Stanley.

I was joking.

Re: I got one

Really cool Countess.

Take care in this one! It looks in great condition, though no doubt you are correct, there will be some things need doing.

Nice one!
