Currently on a driving holiday and covered inland Queensland, inland New South Wales, and a fair bit of coastal South Australia (Whyalla east). I have done this before and I have noticed one thing about SA when it comes to cars. There seems to be a lot more classic car in good conditions getting round there (not just VW). Is this right or just me paying more attention to the cars because the overgrazed sheep paddocks are on the boring side.

On a side note there was a VW bug that might need someone to love it that I spotted on the right hand side of the road heading down from victor harbor to Cape Jervis. Cant give much details about it because a 4wd was trying to run over the tourist (me) that was being slowed down by a caravan at that stage.

Notice that myself . It must something to do with the dry climate maybe?

Easy reg maybe. If it runs out just reregister when ur ready. No annual inspections????

Suffer in your shorts!
You should see the piece of sh## I registered and took to portland last year.
They said on the news tonight that in a few months we will have the most expensive electricity in the WORLD.
Gotta have some paybacks.

maybe people in S.A are just cooler people

Funny my experience is totally different.

It probably depends on what parts you talk about cos not so bad now but whenever I've been back there which is alot over the last 30 years as all my family come from there it's been lots of old rusted shitters on the road due to the lack of annual road worthys.

You should check out Jaff's cruise. Unofficial cruise on the 27th Dec usuallt starts near west lakes. 1000+ cars, all awesome and not a shitter in sight apart from someone rocking up in a porraga thing one year.

Due to our relaxed laws I get to cruise my centura daily. SA the lucky state.
T54

SA the sleeper state..Where people cruise on Jaffs cruise in LS1 turbo powered sigmas..lol. On another note..go the centuras. A mate of mine has a KB with a 265 that runs consistent flat 12s aspirated and mid to high 11s on gas.

Will hopefully have Zelda done for the Jaffs cruise.

S.A. you've got to love it. ('cause if you don't they'll chop you up and put you in a barrel)

Seb not sure it would be right a Jaffs. Missing half it's engine. I'll be there in a 440 vf valiant or a 500hp slr Torana. There are someplaces where a Vw just doesnt fit in.

the funny thing is that i am a bicycle collector and i wrote out a top 10 list of must haves and 8 of them came from SA and with the cars, a few of us did a road trip there a whiloe ago in search of vw stuff and we found loads and at good prices, nice bunch of guys from out that way that are willing to help too, my mates cressy, bodie and suparoo have found me heaps of gold on there home turf

Lot of German settlers in the early days, Hahndorf etc etc so maybe favour the dubs over the years

Aha yeah, I doubt she'll be very wanted/liked.
Might be in Robe anyway
