Alrighty, After having a good long talk face to face with the smash repairers, My car will be sorted this week. Shiv - I was getting some insurance work done from the smash + some work i wanted done. Mark - Thanks for the offer mate, We rented out a truck. So me and my mates are using that. (Light ridged license ftw!) So you can enjoy your weekend. And this is probably for the beer thread but has anybody tried Sapporo? I had some last night and it was good!

Haha ill have to study the 'Beer Thread' before choosing drinks ey! Nah, having the reception at a Winery in the Hunter Valley (www.margan.com.au) and we'll put a tab on that.

A few months ago when we were looking at venues, we drove into one of the winerys and there was a late 50s/early 60s Cadillac sitting there. I got talking to the owner and he has a few of them that he and his wife own and use for weddings/wine tours/any special event you want a big american classic for!! I had actually come across his website a week before this! They are beautiful cars (he was in the limo and we drove a few k's to see his wife who was driving some ladys around on a wine tour in the convertible) but unfortunately they are already booked on our date and the missus is not too keen on them! :(

Keeping my eyes out though - for something 50's Jag style.

I am liking my cars new found power, just wish I could find the source of this annoying metallic grinding sound... not as deep as a wheel bearing, its higher pitched ... similar to the sound of a backing plate hiting the rotor while moving... cept its not that I have already checked...


Is it when you turn one way mate? I had that issue.

Ha, funny we went past Margan just last weekend. That whole area around Pokoblin(?) is just beautiful. We ended up having lunch at some place starting with a "T"...very nice, and utterly relaxing sitting out enjoying a beer.

I'm the sort of person who would be incapable of selecting just one type of wedding car. I'd end up with a fleet of everything from American to European and it would cost more than the wedding itself. 50's Jag sounds just fiiine B)

Yea it is so nice out there. Margans is in Broke which is about 20 mins out of Pokolbin. Means its a bit cheaper too coz its not right in the centre of the HV but it was seriously the nicest place we checked out :) Dude i know what you mean! There are soo many nice cars out there. Pricey ones too! This is how the choosing of wedding cars has gone so far: K: Ill let you choose the cars seeing as though it means alot to you M: Thanks hun. Do you like these Caddys? K: Ew no. M: I thought i could choose. K: Yea but not them M: Awesome. ... haha nah its all good. we'll find something nice :)

Let me guess - you've got the blue leather in yours? :P


I do like the RX seats (with or without seats). They're a good basic seat but I've been getting back pains after sustained driving. Either the seats are shit, or my back is crook. I'm thinking the later...
