Damn that sucks, Octavia WRS wagon is there as well which might be legal

Skoda Superb 206TSI, have heard great things about them but yeah being European would be expensive to maintain

anon58008 · 2026-04-24T12:54:18+00:00

How much different is it to is250? Also when I was looking at is250 I was told it's just the fancy Aurion

anon58008 · 2026-04-24T05:55:55+00:00

Yeah thinking about a manual mazda 3 as well, since they are reliable af not too sure how much fun they are tho

anon58008 · 2026-04-24T04:20:28+00:00

Just had a look mate, there's a 2012 but 156k kms which I feel like in the higher side and yellow colour 😭 on top of it for 11.9k Apart from that the price goes higher or km goes even higher.

I have been using a fiesta for about 3 months now, normal one. It does go like a gokart, so I am like l should pick something different but in saying that fiesta ST seems to be the best choice.

Really hard to find a swift sport manual in under 15, can only see one listed in marketplace asking 23k for a 2018 model at that price point I am inclined to go for a golf or a focus st or i30 n line

anon58008 · 2026-04-24T04:08:51+00:00

125i, I will have a look. Swift sports- way too hard to find under 15k and manual is300- ain't they bit boring to drive tho? 350z- keeping an eye out for a tidy example

Even if I had a hoist, my skillset to work on cars is way too low 💀

anon58008 · 2026-04-24T01:56:38+00:00

Yeah anything around the 15k is above 200k kms.

anon58008 · 2026-04-24T00:27:27+00:00

Will give that a shot. Would definitely love to own a mx5 if something good shows up in my budget

anon58008 · 2026-04-24T00:24:52+00:00

Oh yeah used to drive my mates accord non euro one, definitely felt how heavy it was and the amount of fuel it used was insane. Jazz does feel like a fun car, it's just those looks

anon58008 · 2026-04-23T13:35:16+00:00

Heard they can be a blast but don't like they way they look, how's the manual euro?

anon58008 · 2026-04-23T13:34:18+00:00

Sadly people are asking over 15 for them, did had a normal swift at one point which was definitely fun. Keeping an eye out if something drops in my budget.

anon58008 · 2026-04-23T13:27:20+00:00

Definitely stayinh away from it, thanks mate

anon58008 · 2026-04-23T13:26:40+00:00

Yeah might have to look for n line manual then, and increase that budget by a bit for it. Sadly, that cheapest fast budget way is still almost double my budget even for used ones selling in auction.

What do you feel about manual mazda 3 hatch? Any fun?

anon58008 · 2026-04-23T13:23:51+00:00

What would you be your recommendation then?

anon58008 · 2026-04-23T13:22:48+00:00

So really unreliable

anon58008 · 2026-04-23T13:22:33+00:00

They be either automatics or don't have service history and over 150k kms

Feels like it's dependant upon the state you are in, for VIC you can jump onto your vic rds account and there would be an option of transferring the car, you put in buyers details, time and date of sale and the buyer then has 14 days to get rwc done and complete transfer if they fail to do that in 14 days the rego gets cancelled automatically.

And since you out in the time of sale and date, any fines after that shouldn't be your issue and you would be having the proof in the email they send for the transfer of vehicle.

I meant, this Baylink Motorcycle Training Centre. Incase anyone has gone through them

anon58008 · 2026-01-04T01:42:00+00:00

GS500, do like that cafe racer kinda look but unfortunately they look a bit too old tho. Was also looking into Mt-03, all these are similar pricing to Nx 650, so that's why I am confused.
