This is cranky stuff, and the fact they chose an A-U is fantastic. The sound is just as I remember when I heard my first A-U V16 run.

Yes, you can.

“6/10 would still take a Guilia Quad” - where does that factless fact come from?

Suckers! $295 wife’s VW 03 Beetle turbo. $325 00 MB S class. Health insurance? $Nil, full cover. That’s about the only two things worth bragging about in Oz.

I look at that rusty dust shield and can imagine how horrible that car must be to work on underneath. I just don’t see crud like that, my 600 000 km 28 year old Merc still has the nice satin black shields with dabs of white paint on them. I’ve seen English origin cars up on a hoist and you are struggling to…

Daily driver = BMW for sure.

I’m a Merc owner and I fitted Mercedes Cognac leather to my Mini Moke seats... KJ in Oz

This certainly looks like Sbarro’s students designed it not Franco himself! I was fortunate have a private guided tour of his workshops in Switzerland in the mid ‘80s when he was at his gullwing peak. There was a lot of crazy goings-on there, lots of glass fibre dust everywhere.

I think the instance of dealers backing out would be small compared to the number of grubby buyers that consider a signed contract ‘an option to buy’.

No problem driving for up to a year in most countries with foreign plates, you need a Carnet for some countries and not for some and 3rd party insurance. Insurance of the car would be recommended too. Then, away you go. I plan a similar journey when I retire ... KJ in Oz

Both are dicks, get what they deserve.

I’m looking at one right now! KJ in Oz

Yes, Benz is best, stuff like this make it special -

Fit a GPS tracker if your value your car so much - good ones under $150 these days. You can set them to call you if the car leaves a pre set area too.

I’m sure you’re going to get lots of these - KJ in Oz

Import rules will make it hard for these now, California will be out for sure regarding EPA and ARB regs. Original engines are a must to import and glass etc must have DOT approval. The early XA, XB and XC are too expensive in Oz now and most of these probably won’t have the original engines. Of course, there is…

Hmmm, I think the Audi Front UW220 introduced in April 1933 might have been before the Citroen. KJ in Oz

With you there, can’t stand passengers in my cars let alone an unknown spotty dude with questionable hygiene...

I think this is what they are looking for?
