Depends on where you are. The availability of N12 parts is pretty bad where I'm living, but they seem cheap. In Sydney, most of these cars seem to have gone to the scrap heap a long time ago. As I've mentioned elsewhere, I was kind of laughed at when I went asking around for an indicator lamp at the wreckers. I don't know what the situation is in Melbourne. Sure hope this car resurfaces in good condition.

Usually you can find them if you go to the north of Melbourne and all that, though wreckers around here are pretty expensive and they will try and get every dollar you have

Yeah I would love another one, though this was my Grandma's which she gave me when she passed, so it really means a lot to me, plus I put a shit load of work and money into it.

Dear Everyone,
MY CAR HAS BEEN FOUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11PM last night I received a phone call from Werribee Police stating that they had found my car in the car park of mossfiel Reserve off Heaths Rd in Werribee. So this morning at about 11AM I find my car parked in a little spot in the far corner of the car park, took me 10 mins to find it because there is three car parks in the joint. So once found I looked inside and found that nearly everything was missing, including work light, iPod, gps mounting thing, gps cigarette light charger thing(least they didnt take the cigarette lighter), wheelchair permit(for me mum), sunglasses, learner log book with 130 hours written down and a couple of other shit. On the exterior, I was quite surprised that it was not damaged, absolutely no damage, only streaks of mud where they took it on the dirt rd's. Mechanically, The car was a bit stuffed, looks like they were flooring it around corners and banging into curbs, or gone to have fun on gravel rds, the CV joints are a bit buggered, which I was going to replace anyway, so that will happen soon, defiantly needs a wheel alignment which I was going to do it on Tuesday but wasnt able to, so that should occur next week. Engine was fine, and the transmission seem to be a bit jumpy but after a little while of careful driving it ended up being fine. One thing I was particularity surpirised was the way they started the car, no hotwiring or damaged ignition barrel, it was all good as if a key was in it, so I'm guessing picked lock or master key. Either way, I have my car back, and I am that pleased it is amazing, although more than $200 worth of stuff was stolen, its better than paying $2000 for a new car.

This is where it was found:

So I'm quite pleased, I have defiantly learnt my lesson, and I will be placing the car behind the back gate, and getting insurance.
