I know our boys in blue are out there honestly doing a great job but any poor kid could have run out of that tucker stop chasing a tennis ball and copped either of us!

No lights and siren, trying to overtake on the left in a single lane service road.......err you can be pretty confident as to why you weren't booked for doing what you did.
What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

Yeah thats annoying... I could only but laugh at the amount of tight arses on FB when I was selling an old VY Commy for $1500 with no RWC and three months reg. I'd get texts with offers of 1K or less and one guy even went the effort of offering $1500 as long as it came with 12months reg AND a road worthy certificate. Yer right.
In your case mate, I'd just tell them to be there at a certain time, give them a 20 minute window, and if they are not there in that time, tough. Dont wait for them. If there keen, they'll be there.

Nah mate, it's an odd one, accelerated out of a set of lights and between gear changes it felt like the motor stopped, then started again. 300m down the road pulled up at next lights and it shuddered then died. No smoke no bad noises just stopped. Tought maybe faulty fuel gauge and no fuel, had 20l of fuel on the rear bar, threw that in, primed the filter, it cranks but does not ignite. Called George he has baffled too. Dont care, not gonna fix it just more inspiration to do the ls swap lol

That’s shit Nic. Sounds the same as to what happened to my ZD when it died. Just went to accelerate off and it died and never started again. Ended up being a dead injector pump. Can’t remember the code it was throwing. If you need help with anything, shout out mate.

Ended up selling the old XR6, thing was I wasn't depending on the sale to get back into a Patrol, so really didn't faze me with the dumb offers. Rookie mistake though, showing up at night to buy a car :-)

Someone had a crack at knocking off my Old Trol at Bendigo last night. Gotta be thankful they were disturbed by someone or had a change of heart.
