However I don't think those are original wheels? Off a Telstar?

Two decent “spots” yesterday.
A red non-Calais VL sedan near Baulkham Hills, by the way its trim fitted I think an original in great condition - not a restoration. Personalised plates, bonus points for not being a poxy survivor on club rego. In the back blocks of Castle Hill’s industrial area, an XP hardtop with the front end on a dolly. |

Damn marvellous seeing them thats for sure, the coupes AU and XY ? yer the yanky modern day vette, nothing like of the early era ones but not a bad modern day version. Seen them heaps when over there, massive bang for buck compared to euros.

At least there's a long time span of parts around.

My X-Trail started to run a little rough, especially on cold starts. Even when filling with 98 at non BP (independent) stations. A tank full of BP 98 fixed it. Won't look back. |

Parked near a previously seen Alfasud this morning at the local shops. Owner showed up and we briefly chatted. Its still on original rego, owner said it was 44 years old and a one owner car, which looked about right if he'd bought it as a young man.
It looks like a well loved survivor car. Next time I'll grab a snap. He did say getting parts was becoming a real problem.
