I learnt to drive in an early 80's Colt up in the Snowy's and learnt to drive on the road in a 96 Daewoo Ceilo. Bought my own 929 coupe pretty soon after that.

My brothers hiace is a bucket. Maybe its just because I've only dríven my car, my girlfriend's prelude and the work falcon/xc70 in recent years and I've forgotten how crappy my first car was, but wow I hate that van. Column shift is the devil.

Update time!

New seats paid for and on their way. Should be here Monday.
Seriously contemplating new wheels. Need to go see people tomorrow to confirm a few things first.

Woot!

Ha, nothing Sliq, just standard ACT plates. The reason I took a photo was because I finally got the black slimline ones.
Either that or the say "why flish?" I'm not 100% tbh :lol:

I contemplated getting NA-618 as initial plates, would have only been a few hundred more as a one off payment, but I just didn't care that much. Far better things to spend my money on.
Also thought about asking for YNA-68P or YNA-618 but again, didn't care.

Got my davemb tight ar5e bracket today too. May try to get it in over the weekend, but probably not. Last week of holidays and I keep ending up on here instead of doing assignments. Like right now, I *should* be writing about the social and environmental impacts of OzHarvest (interesting organisation btw), yet here I am...
