As bogged said

No SWB GU Patrols released into Australia :roll: and that even includes Tassie for some reason.

No txt speak here please :finger:


Here is the GU in question;

Why?

Grey import compliance should cover it.

And there may be another this time next year
Pricing one at the moment from Japan to bring over with us next year, just need to own it for a year, but it'll still cost a few $$$ in GST etc etc :roll:

You say this so often that some of us consider it spam. Why not offer something constructive like...

Seeing that you're such an f'king expert on search, you should be able to provide links to the questions easily.

IMO, if it's not worth saying DON'T SAY IT!!!

I'm still trying to make sure that there isn't some strange reason my application to import one when I head over can be declined.

At the moment the SWB Jap import Safari's (GU shape) are still selling for around 20k, so I can pretty much add another 4-5k to get it over and on the road.

Hopefully it can be brought over as a personal import

Actually those of us who have been around since day dot are pretty sick of hearing over and over from whinging carnts who can't seems to hit a farken search button for themselves.

Did you enjoy searching for him? Do you think you should be the one responsible for searching for other people? Gee, you're a nice bloke, should I come a find you every time I need to search for something? :roll:

So ... shut ya pie hole, Jerko and mind your own business.

SPAM away Bruce, that is all.

None of the Yank bumpers protect the front either....
Certainly looks better, without cluttering up the front of the car.

Why? Are people that stupid to do it themselves? Do you have someone to sit down and piss for you as well?
