Yeah, I wondered if it was the same car. If so, it certainly hasn't had a good run of luck.

Same car....it was imported by the Maniacs as well.....it has had a chequered history to say the least.

Who're the Maniacs?

And it looks like the history ends here though. I would hazard a guess and say it's not worth rebuilding that car after the smash. Sure, salvage it for parts, but I wouldn't bother trying to get that back on the track now.

We got this one for David and Simone some time ago. It was actually a brand new car that has just been registered and then sideswiped on the way home from the dealership :frown:

From memory it had about 80km from new on it.................

Then it was bent at Eastern Creek which I heard called for a new shell..... I spoke to the guys at Oran Park one day and in the 07 12 hour the car was doing 260 down Conrod........
