Apparently the TD42T was an option.

A Ti spec TD42T would be awesome.

This interesting, Ive been in N.Z. for a year. Thought maybe if I go back to Aus would'nt mind bringing one with me. Checked Vic Roads and they provide 325, 987.0000 Links with stuff all comment. What they did say was if you own for 12 months in N.Z. its no problem with Customs. But it did'nt matter how much I re worded my question, which was basicly. Can I register this in Victoria " I could not get an answer.

If anyone is going to Vic Roards, try and nail the buggers down. I explained its an expensive excersize so would appreciate a yea or nea. They did'nt bother to reply this time

Airfares are pretty cheap these days, just scoot across the ditch for a weekend and look at anything that appeals :D .

If there was anything near me that someone wanted checked then I would be happy to do so.

Problem is, you need to prove ownership of the vehicle for 12mths, as well as evidence of residing in that country for that time, this includes handing over your passport for them to check
