Just bought a Bora 4motion :)

[dustfp]

Picked up the car last night.
Still can't get over the value for money.
It was far ahead of anything else in my budget, features and engine-wise, and I've loved driving it so far!
It's in good condition, full service history, 100,000km.
The only thing not stock are the Koni rear shocks, and a nokia bluetooth kit (which is very handy).

Some pics (though they certainly don't do the car much justice):

P.S: want a cheap car bra for your 4motion? i bought one for mine and only used it twice. let me know

[Gravey]

Shiny!!

[dustfp]

Don't think I have much use for a car-bra, thanks anyway :p

[AusScare]

Very nice, how's the power and handling? First awd sedan?

Congratulations on your Bora.
The 4 motion is a stunning car,yours looks like it was very well looked after.
What year is it,and how much did it cost ?

What car have you replaced it with,and what others were you considering ?

[dustfp]

Power and handling is much better than I've had before, so not much to compare to :p
It's a 2002 model, and I paid $14700.
It replaced a '97 Celica. I loved the looks but the engine was pretty rubbish, and it's nice to have some real luxury in the bora :p
Also, FWD started to get old

Like Pater said, welcome to the 4mo family. These seem to becoming the flavour recently as I have heard of about 4 new (used) ones here on the forum. I have had my 2003 for 2.5 years and still love it!

What part of Syd you in? Dyldo, Manaz and I hooked up for a mini 4mo gtg one arfternoon, if your close, we could organise another.

[dustfp]

I'm Lower North Shore.
I wouldn't be surprised if more pop up, seems to be a great time to buy them considering the price :p
Seeing that I just bought the car, and it's fantastic to drive, I don't mind travelling!

HEY buddy, grats and welcome. I know this car, bought from St Ives right?

Very nice. Mine is only about 8 weeks old in my possession and i have already done a few mods (can't help myself). As Goodfella said, i'm in town as well and would love a GTG.

....be a good chance for me to steal more stuff from Goodfella's car like his steering wheel

car looks the goods btw - any plans?

[dustfp]

Yeah, previous owner was in St Ives :p
Plenty of ideas, but the only solid plan is a rear sway bar right now.
Down the track, haldex controller, some nice OEM 18" wheels and a bit of a drop, and that would probably do me.
