Congratulations on your purchase.

You say you pick it up Saturday? Seriously, find something to keep your mind off it between now and then! :P

I had a week to wait from signing the papers to actually collecting it - my god it nearly killed me with anticipation!

You'll love it when you get it though. Welcome to the AU owner's club!

hhmmmmm another sucker, oopps, i mean enthusiast, to earn money, and over spend on all the mods he can do, and fall into the catagory of au owner with great car and no money....:....welcome!!!! you may now start keeping moth balls in your wallet, as they will surely eat it as there wont be any money left!!:P thats a bargain price, make sure it gets a test drive or 3 before you do finally pick it up to make sure all is good mechanically though (all wheel bearings a good, no knocking from driveline etc etc), but mainly to kill time untill you can get it home and call her yours!!
