Many moons ago I was driving a hire car through sydney in peak hour morning traffic. Now given I rarely drive in Sydney and there are what, 5 million cars there at least? What were the odds that Cheifs wagon would cruise by the other way?

How about that. It sort of makes me happy to know the car is getting recognised.

I've seen Janek on the road up here, and Racecraft. Both pretty unique looking cars in their own way so pretty sure it was them. The XR front with the Fairlane grille gave racecraft away, and as for janek I'm confident that that's the only gold Fairmont in Brisbane with a T3 front and no other kit ;)

I spotted a black AU on Ferntree Gully Road about a week ago, pulled over by cops, had a stereo install with blue neons (they had the boot open), also had big rims and was rather low. Don't know if they are a member on here or not.

That definately sounds like FTRWPN, although I'm pretty sure it was written off not so long ago.

Yeah ... I spotted Stav on Church St Parramatta in the morning ... gave him a quick wave as I passed him (and kept the boot into it along Church St).

And later in the afternoon heading down in Concord ... Stav passed me in heavy traffic in the right lane ... didn't realise it tille he hit the horn right next to me. (Concord in the afternoon is nasty).

I still had to get to Chullora ... then Wetherill Park ... and then up to Katoomba .... I had a busy day though yesterday.

I try and keep a look out for others from the forum .... I did see Aeron along Merrylands Rd the other day in his XR6T.

I saw a cool looking AU SR with GT stripes in the western suburbs of Melbourne. The stripes were actually "edited" to allow the SR logo to remain inline. Anyone know who that is?

I saw an orange xl/xls ute yesterday, with XR S1 sideskirts and 19's and a C2R or HAWK grill.
This morning i saw a white XR sedan, not sure if it was 6 or 8, with a XR50 front bar and T style side skirts and wing, with a car-bra to suite with the ford logo on the drivers side and the xr logo on the passengers.
Are either of those guys members here, the xr was being driven by an older gentleman
