I used to live in a rural city in New South Wales (Australia). People used to snub the 7-10 year old local cars with full service history and 160,000-200,000km on then for the cars that arrived on a transporter from Sydney with 100,000-120,000km on them. Often the Sydney cars had no service history. The local cars…

Try looking at RT46 Toyota Corona pickups. Factory made but very rare. Similar size to this but RWD.

My neighbor has a freaking rusty yaught visible from the street. I think that is cool. A plane, even cooler!

Two nominations:

The 1989 Nissan Maxima called, they want their keypad back.

A former Fiat Chrysler engineer with no wrenching experience? Are you kidding?

I grew up in a RHD and drive on the left country - Australia. There are quite a lot of older LHD cars here, mostly imported from America. Driving LHD on the Left is not that hard. The biggest hassle I found was grabbing the window winder handle rather than the gearknob when I needed to change gear. I am used to…

ToLiveandDieinNJ speaks the truth. In Australia 160kays or 160k means 160,000km.

Not sure if this applies because it hasn’t arrived yet.

Doug, I’ve always loved your writing, but I have to disagree on this one. The title of first SUV has to go to the Range Rover.

Definitely the Golf Country. I want one badly. Just imagine the looks on people’s faces as you plow up some trail in a freaking lifted old golf.

DVD player with dual screens hanging from the headrests. It’s the only way to go. Just don’t play that bloody FROZEN crap. (It’s permanently banned in my cars.) Whatever you do, do not let them read or use a tablet on a narrow mountain road. Kid spew in your car with nowhere to pull over is NOT FUN!!

Mr Toyota, Just Take My MONEY!!!

Now it just needs a quick sand and a couple of rattle cans of white paint. The rental company will never notice it, bro!

Correct! Cable Beach.

Me too! The car that team were planning to take suffered an electrical fire before it left the outskirts of Melbourne. So they floew to Perth and bought the Camira for $400 from Gumtree. It did the Gibb River Road without a problem!

A late EFI Camira finished the 2014 rally. :)

I was thinking the same. It’s basically a Golf GTI without the VW scene tax. :)

If you want to do it, sign up today on the website. It will be two or three years before you get a place, so you can always decide NOT to do it then. I the don’t think we have had a black Interceptor replica yet. But we did have a “Pursuit” yellow XC Falcon in 2012. We did visit Silverton this year, where Mad Max II…

I live in Victoria. I’d take this Seat Ibiza GTi for the WTF factor. Not a bad little car. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/bundoora/…
