I think I'm in love....are you open to offers?


sx200 - January 29th, 2012 at 06:36 PM

any of you guys buy this?


BrisDubba - January 29th, 2012 at 07:21 PM

Nope not me - I was interested as a clubcar as there would have been issues with getting it registered in Qld but someone else bought it.


sx200 - January 30th, 2012 at 07:23 PM

what issues?


BrisDubba - January 30th, 2012 at 08:29 PM

They run on a shortened chassis, much like a Manx - so it isnt just as easy as calling it a body swap - which opens up a million other issues.

That is assuming you are doing everything legitimate.


sx200 - January 30th, 2012 at 08:46 PM

but if its registered in NSW wouldnt that be a straight interstate transfer?


BrisDubba - January 30th, 2012 at 09:23 PM

To transfer it you would need a safety certificate and the declaration about modifications- from my talking with the seller it was not declared as a shortened chassis.. Sure you might get away with it, but bit of an expensive exercise if you dont.

It still looked like a great bit of kit for the price though

Hi Guy's,
Yes the Covin ended up in Brisbane,

No it was not an issue getting RWC and REGO or Insurance, if it had not been previously regestered that would have been a PITA.

It did come with a regestered engineers report stating the chassis was modified and complied with the relevant ADR
as well as the wheels,brakes and tyres, we did have some issues with the Subaru retrofit but all sorted out, the next fun task will
be fitting the 3.2 and getting the 5 spd in there without using coil overs. So will have a subaru 2.2 kit available soon..ish

and just to top it off....its looks better than the pics...was a bargin, nice addition to the garage.

Well done Apple am glad it worked out for you and look forward to seeing it around, looks like a great toy.


vinnies72 - January 31st, 2012 at 09:11 PM

apple if you still have it, in a few years can i buy it :lol::lol:

Hey Apple if you wanna get a 5 speed in there and not cut the torsion bar, fit one of my 5 speed subie boxes and a subie 3.0 or 3.6. Much more modern than a 3.2 and still a flat 6.
