I wouldn't hold your breath, but stranger things have happened...
My last attempt at trying to organise one of these!
Saturday 22 February, 10:00
Suggestions have been made for the west and south, but nothing from the Northside.
I don't know where people would be coming from, and where they would prefer, what day, or what time.
So, with a lack of...
Hi all
I'm sure some of us are keen for an occasional Cars 'n Coffee type meet.
Would be great to share stories, see other cars in the various guises , and discuss mods 'n things.
The last planned event in late November was cancelled due to crap weather. :curse:
Time to have a crack at...

THE PORT of Newcastle has revealed it has further diversified its trade offering with passenger vehicle imports now a reality at the port.

I'm posting this in the Aussie section because it's a Aussie company (located in Melbourne) pitched to a RHD market, and not sure if it would be 100% compatible with LHD markets.
One thing that tends to frustrate me is the low driver stance and the long hood, because it's difficult to gauge...
I'm not sure which sub-forum is the best fit for this...
What is this wiring loom behind the lower grille for?
The connector seems to have a weather seal plugged into it.
By the looks of it, there's a nipple which could be cut to facilitate a wire.
As per forum signature, this is an...

Hi all
With S650s arriving onto our shores, I'm sure some of us are keen to start up Cars 'n Coffee type meets.
Would be great to share stories, see other cars in the various guises , and discuss mods 'n things.
I'd propose late November 2024 for the inaugural S/E QLD S650 Meet.

Hill Start Assist cannot be found, anywhere.
As per signature: Australian RHD, GT, 6-SP, Segmentation 21-Jun-24, Gate Release 28-Jun-24.
The owners' manual in the vehicle suggests it should be there.

The Auto Hold seems to perform much the same thing.

At least the steering wheel is on the correct side! :giggle:
With Mustang delivery fast approaching, thoughts are concentrating on window tinting.
My last brand new vehicle purchase is approaching 30 years ago!
Back then I had window tint by Tint.a.Car fitted to the MY1995 Toyota 4Runner.

Australian 2024.50 Mustang reviews have recently appeared on Youtube.
In one of those videos, fingerprints on the 13.2" infotainment screen are very apparent.
Time to consider how to clean the screens.
A fascinating look at a movie buff's replica Mad Max XB Interceptor... and of all places, in the UK.
Two years in the making, and the attention to detail is incredible, especially the fake supercharger.
Grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy.
