100kw?

I have 250 kw at the wheels and about 300kw at the fly in the VL. And it weight 1250kgs!

I was looking at the classic car auctions via the ads on this site and bugger me some merkins pay big coin for old toranas and commodores.

Sadly a mint version of my retirement alfa is over 100k now. <sad face>

Yes they are worth a lot now. Another is Chargers. They are pulling over 100k.

You know who else drove German cars? Nazis

There’s some people who knew how to build an efficient vehicle

Edit - I should have said “efficient machine”
Oh well...

Good choice. Except speaking of fickle servicing...

My retirement car will always be an E-Type until I need a driver when I’ll swap to a 600 Grosser

I used to have an immaculate model of one of these.
Paid $5300 for it in 1981. Worth about $20 k's now.

My neighbour when I was in primary school was a Dundas merkin who made good. He bought himself a sky blue e-type auto hardtop with tan leather. Wow.

Re: Alfas, yes I used to own a V6 Alfetta GTV. Great car but a rust bucket and nightmare to service. I was lucky that I found a mechanic in Bondi Junction that loved Alfas.

It's an Australian classic. Why do you want to pretend to be German?
Does it make you feel superior?

Bro Holden became US owned in 1931. Why do you want to pretend to be American ? Does it make you feel like a tosser ?
