Hands Up all the Aussies

[morgand]

When I picked up my Qashqai in Melb and drove it to Wollongong, told dealer not to register it and drove home with just a sticker on the windscreen and no plates. Got it registered here. Didn't need to worry about speed cameras or tolls.
Just let insurance know and your covered, also passed a few police and know one seem to care

So I should be able to beat the Kessel run times of 12 parsecs???

Maybe after the long wait we should ask for more, @cainen have you tried for an extras as you pick-up tomorrow

Picked the Proto up this morning. They didn't have any extras available. Even if I wanted to purchase them. They said they're all on back order including floor mats.

The weather was absolutely disastrous so it was a very slow and safe drive home on the slippery new tires.

At home with its filthy sibling:

I've found something else to keep me busy until my new Z arrives

that took way longer than I am comfortable admitting to identify.

what's it going in?

 

[loudsx]

so to put in persective what this wait is like.

Chatting to one of the folks in my car club they have now been waiting over 2 years for a RAV4 hybrid.

so this isn't just a Nissan bad rollout it's industry standard

That really shows how low they are. I wonder what the roof height is in comparison to the BRZ.

1315mm vs 1310mm for the Subaru so pretty much the same.

Going to have to take up Pilates or Yoga to ensure trouble free ownership.

this is why I ahve a test drive condition on my order, 6"2 and not skinny makes for bad fit in some cars.

 

[MattJ2020]

I recently test drove the BRZ... another story, but under powered; and it wasn't comfortable getting out of it. Interior is much lower than the Z! The Z is more comfy and I'm at 6"2, the seats are hugging too which was comfortable.

News tomorrow on a Z order from me!

what's it going in?

We just pulled it out.
Got another motor to rebuild and go in. Replace rear subframe and diff. Some bodywork and she'll be good to go.

Looks like it had a front hit? What is it actually?
