Mum said I have about 3K to spend, rego and what not would be nice but not needed, I would like to have cruise control if I could, also, a 3L is a must.
Oh and come holliday time, and pay, someone might just have a Mivec up their sleeve.

$3K to spend on a car... it might not be a long term car, just to hold me over because mum is sick of me hooning around in the commodore.

An enlarged anal passage as they will f**k you over big time.
Seen a TR Magna 4cyl auto at the dealers for $7000.....yes you heard right...
better to search private, get it checked out by the RACV or whatnot an haggle them down

I buy cars from ebay fairly often,6 so far this year, you just make sure you read all the stuff they write, dont buy from a first time seller and dont send money in advance.
If ya want more tips just PM me with what ya wanna know.:D
Try the auctions?
