Almost a liberty owner! Need advice

[Phoenix]

I work for a reputable dealership, and it's actually illegal for them to sell a car if you've put a deposit on it.

[Mav954]

Yeah I'm a motorcycle salesman by day and it was just very poor practise on their behalf, I'm not going to slander online but without a contract being sent to me to sign subject to viewing and the fact they never actually ran the card details through resulted in another salesperson selling the car unknowingly i had 'left a deposit'.. Oh well onwards and upwards, the longer we wait the higher the budget grows haha, something better will come along

[Phoenix]

It's a sign that you'll find something better.

Still on a mad liberty hunt guys, just a quicky, starting to lean more towards a GT, what are the autos like? Now I'd rather a manual but it's not my car, the misses has always had manuals but would like an auto, going to also be used for towing my bike to the track and possibly a jetski down the track so I may be giving in to the idea of the auto

[Mav954]

Well something better did come along! Found a mint GT wagon with towbar etc fitted and got it for a great price, all we have to do is get the window tint done and we are set! Put a deposit down today it was on car sales for 45mins haha, located in coorparoo we are heading down next Wednesday

[Phoenix]

Congrats Brady! All good things come to those who wait! Looking fwd to pics.

[Mav954]

Cheers guys thanks for the help! Do any of you tow with your libertys?

Hi Mav

Hope the new car is settling in well. Not quite the same I know, but have towed with my MY00 Outback a few times, without any problems. Mainly just a box trailer and short distances, but the auto seems to handle the task OK, even with a trailer full of slightly damp paving sand.

Definitely want to see pics in an intro thread, if you haven't done so already.

Yes, but mine is a 3.0R.
What are you planning on towing?

[Mav954]

Mate if you can tow that ill be fine haha, got a hilux if I need to carry anything heavy, ill be towing an alloy trailer with my Fireblade to Queensland raceway which is about 5 hours away, so max 400kg-ish. Lib should be a bit nicer on the trip than the leaf sprung 82 hilux lol. Haven't actually got it yet dongreen heading down next Wednesday to pick it up! Can't wait

[Mav954]

Doubt ill be heading down Wednesday with these floods! But either way what should I be looking for with this GT, like in the books etc, it's timing belt every 100,000 isn't it? It's got 157000km but apparently has logbooks with it
