Wait... 1 wheel, 1 suspension, 1 control arm, 1 CV joint, 1 drive shaft is worth 13K?? Even with cost of labour I don't see how it could be 13K worth... Was there damage to the rest of the car?
Such a shame though mate, looked like a neat gen3!

Keen to hear about this car Matt!
Time - not sure. It's about a 40 min drive so are people keen to leave at 9 or 10 or 10.30? Earlier?

Don't know how fast you want to drive Zac, but google maps says it'll take a bit over an hour to get to Cooma :P :lol:
I don't mind what time we leave...9 sounds good to me :)

It's a good hours drive and the airport is 10mins past Cooma towards Jindy. There will be cops all over the Monaro that weekend so I'd allow 90mins. Weather at the moment isn't looking too good but it is the mountains and you don't know what it will do until it's doing it. Looks like I won't be going rallying so will probably head in to Cooma.

Sorry to hear about your car Matt. You'll have to be extra careful on roundabouts now with the new car...wet or dry.
