Yep ! 62k one! Just don't fancy getting wet through looking at
it!.

[Big_M]

Well I was hoping to. But seems someone has beaten me to it !! Just spoke to seller and not half hour ago accepted an offer over the phone for said car !!

Guess back to carsales I go in search of another.

Just a heads up for a nice BMP R32 for sale here in Syd going for $32k.

I met the owner a few times and his .:R is in immaculate condition and used as weekend car. Apparently his either a good friend or relative to an old mk4 .:R32 owner and enthusiast "Dragan".

Clutch replaced at 72,000kms sounds like trackwork related wear and tear to me. Not necessarily a deal-breaker on its own, but something to consider (I'd be looking for other signs of premature aging at that point) when determining what price you'd offer.

That's one down. Two on carsales !!
One with the tubo ! Umm. might stay clear of that one.
One far far away in a distant land ! well not that far really. Priced right up there tho!.

Just got to find the others now ! hehehe.

Only 50 of em huh! umm.

I emailed him with some questions. I wait to see what he says.
Sure some one will know more about the car.

It's a waiting game!

Guess the way the cookie crumbles!! Umm cookies…………..

Got reply from owner.

Says it's stick standard.
Never been to track or drags.
No modifications etc. No body damage.

Might fire back few more questions see what happens.

Shame not closer.

Manaz, see your in SYD, you've not seen this one around by chance have you ?

Can't say I have, no.

I'd be very surprised if it wasn't known to some forum regulars though, given that Dragan was well relatively known on here.
