As some of u may know me and my wife had our first baby 3 months ago so i had to get myself a family car that she could drive also.
so i looked around for a bit and then we both decided a ba/bf wagon on gas was the way to go.
we looked at a few but nothing suss's bf2 was the best and it has been optioned with power rear windows and curtain airbags (my wife was sold when she heard that as she relates it to the "make sure ur next car has curtain airbags" ad).
so i picked it up with the 16" steelies and 17" steelies in the boot.
i didnt take any pics of when i first got it but it was about 2 inches maybe more lower than these ones so not really practical enough so i took the pedders sl rear leafs out and put some au3 xr8 leafs in.
i also added some 20inch wheels i picked up pretty cheap and i really like them.
anyway enough talk heres some pics.

and heres a few with my brothers bf2 xr6t.

not many plans for it for now just drive it and enjoy the cheapness and quiteness.
id love to turbo it one day but if that ever happens it will be along time away plus not sure how itll go with the gas.
cheers josh.

Looking good Josh!
Wheels were just what it needed. I enjoyed the plushness of 16's too much tho.

yeah it did ride good on the 16's but these arent too bad to be honest.
rides alot better at this ride height but an inch block might go in the back for cruises and so on (not that i go on many).
cheers josh.

Nice wagon, I just brought one cheap for a family hack too. So cheap to run, costs about half as much as my XR8 :)

Rims, Lowered, dark tint & Chrome on front neaten it up alot, enjoy.

Is yours an Egas?

yeah i wouldnt say this was the cheapest but diffenitely wasnt expensive i was happy with the price and i hope danny was too.
yeah mines egas.
its a great car and very cheap to run.
still has plenty of power to overtake which is good.
yeah plus no offence to u but i didnt want a white one as all wagons are white which is why i got this.
cheers josh.

I was actually suprised when I first drove mine, I thought it'd be a real slug, but there not too bad for what they are.

I really wanted an Ego one, but the price on the one I found was too good to pass up - 8k with RWC.

Enjoy & congratulations on the baby.

Will look out for the pics! Sure it will look good against a few different cars.
I've seen a heap of cars with that little muffler behind the cat getting rattles. Or heat shields. I'd tip the small muffler not the cat.
