Damn ... I try to keep a look out for people on the forum ... and I don't see anyone.
Probably saw me coming from Yokohama with a heap of tyres onboard ... a do a lot of deliveries out of there ... damn some of the tyres I deliver are probably worth when my ute costs. Especially the 24" rubber I delivered the other day.

Theres another ute like yours getting around our area, only he's got a hard lid.
And he doesnt have those plates you have... obviously. Same spotties, bull bar... I have to look twice to make sure half the time... Very similar to yours though, maybe you inspired a clone ;)

Get a photo if you can ... would be interesting to see.
no projectors though ... hee hee. I have noticed a couple more XH utes in the area with bars/spotties/aerials. More and more want to be like me. I need to get more lights I think.

On the way to the Hume highway for work this morning, spotted an AU ute coming into Wagga - full Pursuit 250 colour, bonnet buldge (I think it had an EL GT scoop on top of the buldge), chrome rims and acid rush in colour. By the sound of it it was an XR8 too.
Anybody know of this car? Id like to have a bit better look at it than I did going past in the other direction.

Spotted a red aufalcon.com-stickered car on Calder Fwy Saturday morning heading to Melbourne - my first stickered member spotting in a very long time. Also saw a black Fairmont rego AUVCT with big wheels and a tough-sounding black ute with rego XXXXR.8.

Spotted loxxr6 today ... sitting out the back of the workshop at Crescent Motorsport in Liverpool ... and I think AYEYEW was there as well.
Sorry if i didn't say G'day ... I just finished a nightshift and was half asleep and started chatting with one of the mechanics there. I didn't even get a chance to work on my ute after all that day. All I can say ... replacing sparkplugs and getting injectors cleaned in a V6 Pajero is not a fun thing to do.

Yeah, I had my g/f pick the car up yesterday. Clutch is all fixed, feels way better.
I'm the test mule for some new clutch set up Joe has done and so far I'm quite happy with it. I just have to get used to driving it again. Speaking of cars in the workshop, he had a pretty sweet sounding Mustang when I was there last Saturday. 65 coupe I think.

I spotted a white AU six with a great sounding note last night, Taylors Lakes area (Vic), going into one of the shopping centres there. I was right behind it for a while.

Spotted tonight - Dauphin (I think) on City Road, Southbank during the rush hour... with a couple of guys standing around on the pavement next to it.
...if it wasn't you, then it was a forums stickered grey Fairlane doing a damn good impression !

Wasn't me.
 There's a grey one with white stickers and a TL grille with a DUB badge that I've seen, could be that, or maybe T2TL50 (who drives a grey TL with a sticker).
