Postby old_mate » October 20th, 2007, 10:17 am

Yes ladies, its true. I have bought another car that not an eseries, not even a Ford

Bought a 2002 Hilux SR5 dual cab. 3.0L turbo diesel in black. Its nice. Pics soon.

As a result the EL will be for sale shortly. Very sad day but i needed a ute for work and the hilux is nice :)

The SR5's are a nice bit of gear, all the best with it. Be sure to stick around the forums. ;)
