I've started this thread because on the October long weekend I celebrated 10 years of ownership of my EB2 Wagon. I did actually drive this particular car when it was brand new in 1992 and was impressed obviously.
So impressed that I bought a new EB2 in 1993 Lemans Red 5 speed GLi had it for 2 years and 190,000km before I replaced it with a Lemans red EF wagon which was an auto and a lemon. After 1 year & 100,000km I lost my job so the EF had to go to pay off my house so I bought an Immaculate XE S pack wagon which I had for 2 years and 120,000km before a careless driver wrote it off for me. This meant that I could buy my present EB. Which after 10 years and 320,000 (by me) it has still got it's original box and diff however the original engine had to go a couple of months back because it was leaking oil rather profusely as well as losing coolant and power (1/2 a million KM will do that to an engine). So are there any other long term owners here? ---------------------------------------------------------------- White EB GLi wagon. factory manual and cruise control roof rack dealer fitted tinted windows (fairly dark), bullbar & 7 seats (long gone) Other mods: Fairlane Ghia interior & Subaru leather gear knob, Fairmont dash cluster. Polished Turboblade wheels 2 1/2 inch Redback exhaust XH snorkel & uni filter AU XR6 rocker cover (no leaks) EL tail lights EF cooling fans Dual fuel with EL style LPG tank. Nice mp3 stereo Planned future mods: LSD, subwoofer, BBM, serpentine belt, trip computer and Fairlane or LTD front sheetmetal. Last edited by Jim5_0; 25-10-2008 at 12:23 AM. |
