How much did you end up paying for it?
Was that the one I saw in Gumtree for $6500?
Just interested to know.

In the voice of Jeremy Clarkson: "HE'S BACK!!!!"

Pleased you're back in an MX Ron, are you going to have this one as a cruiser, or a sleeper?

Is the ride quality in the NA better than your NB?
I thought back pains was the reason you sold your NB.
Anyway, welcome back.

Great to see another malibu on here! Travelling thru Queanbeyan on Easter Sat I saw a nice one parked with mags. I thought I had the only one in the Canberra region but now I've seen two others so not so unique any more!
