New car

Introduce yourself and your ride.

New car

Postby robert » January 20th, 2008, 10:52 pm

Been an e-series member for around 2 years, but never been on a cruise! Not much happening here in Sydney. I own an EBII XR6 Manual which is currently for sale. But anyway, I'll introduce my new ride.

It's a 1998 EL XR6 Manual in Galaxy Blue. I had to get it from Melbourne because there is a lack of decent manual XR's up here.

Specs are 5 Speed, 122,000 kms with new engine put in, pacemaker extractors, 2.5" exhaust, pedders all round on lowered springs, 18" AJR wheels, Panasonic head unit, 2x V12 Alpine amps, 2x 12" Pioneer subs.

Now for the important bits. Pictures!

And here is my EBII

Hope you all like.

The EL looks bloody awesome!! I've never seen an XR in Galaxy blue. How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking ?

The EL is sexy mate. Don't change a thing aesthetically, except maybe some tint.

I'm in Sutherland Shire. But I work at Chipping Norton.

Not touching the looks of the car besides darker tint and possibly clear side repeaters. Will probably spruce up the audio, and then mechanical/performance.

bloody nice car mate! always thought el xr's never came in galaxy blue, had never seen one until i saw yours advertised in carsales a while back. And for sydney activity, check out the nsw cruise section on fordmods. Heaps of e-series guys on there, plus a cruise coming up on the 10th, so check it out.

EL looks great mate, was looking for one but found a top EA so saved my money and took her...

you say "Been an e-series member for around 2 years, but never been on a cruise! Not much happening here in Sydney", where in syd are ya, Im near the airport.. aha i wanna go on a cruise also.. try n find a few people and make a mini cruise I guess thru sydney. I'll start a thread for it in general discussion, sign up on it.

You selling the EBII as a whole I take it, otherwise what are you after for the rims?

I see your car every day coming home from work. I'm pretty sure it's yours. Is it along Marigold Street? Looks good.
