R-I-P Astina (not P-plate friendly so don't read)

**rodhog** · 9-4-07, 23:42

BA ASTINA WRITTEN OFF chassis dystroyed or at least bent

This thread is not for you youngsters. Sorry but I've been on this board longer then Most. I've organized more crusies for NSW members then most. I've done crap loads of mods etc.

So If P-platers don't like my Rant Don't read it. But I'll just say this Now I have every reason to be mad.

Astina WRITTEN OFFF - after putting into it about $5000 hmm yeah you dream P-platers of Eibach springs new shocks - new wheels new tyres, exhuasts extractors etc. Basicly Go KISS MY arse.

I'll be pissed for next 3 months and proberly even more everytime I see a Drunk driver.

The other Thread can be clsoed for all I care. With all it's new members, Can't wait to hear all there 1st gen's with blown diff's and - cost of repairs.

I laugh at you now. I'm being cruel but hey, Like I've said Too many DUMB CUNTS out there.

I don't care what UNi you go to or what internet text told you this or that.
Go experience the real world go work for 16 hours hard labour for 4 weeks and then learn the cost. When you have no control I'll laugh.

I was surprised how many other members are here from Aus, that other thread really brought them all out.

Anyway, onto topic, it is a shame to see all your hard work and money bite the dust.

All the best of luck finding a replacement car rod.

**Fitzyb** · 9-4-07, 23:52

any chance of you being able to get most of the parts back off it? or have then been lost with the rest of the car?

So sad to here this, i imagine some dumb kid with p's will be the death of my car oneday, they are far to pickley (ive been driving incident free for 4 years now, and i am still a lil pickley myself) and dont realise what 1.3 tonne of metal can do

sorry to hear of your loss

rod... i think we get your point. yes it sucks but you'll need to build a bridge and ge over it. being pissed off at p platers isnt going to help you.
I know you've been around for along time and done alot of work to your cars, you take pride in them and its awesome, as for the the comment about first gen's blowing diff i would assume everyone has had there fair share of stuff ups with boxes. not just in these cars too. i know i have (but i spose thats because im a young dumb stupid p plater?) im not on here bitching because im a p plater, i just hate keyboard warriors going for it, forums are made to disscuss issues people are having with there cars, giving ideas and so on and what not.

but on a serious side, whats on the boards for the next car? something interesting? find out anymore information about the stageas or camry's? or going to shoot a copmletely different direction from those?

in the end the car is only an inanimate object, you werent injured and thats the most important thing in a crash. whats the insurance situation like? they caught the drunk driver didnt they?

Yeah interesting that. but not surprise, AND not comment

I've been warned Not by CAm either HMM ???? LOL ohh ahh - so now I'm nice or I have to be. LOL

But as for what car

Search begins I think the money is going to have to come out now. I'm thinking new or lexus or similar.

Family is thinking mazda 6 wagon but I don't like new cars too much plastic I'll end up with it....... if it last 5 years.

GS300 ? 2JZ GE
Or Aristo ? hmm big 2JZ GTE

Then you have the other options in new cars, Not looking for something stupid buying a merc for shopping is stupid like buying a MPS6 to do the job.
Car will be for shopping and moslty trips to local areas.

Mazda 6 - Liberty - Euro - BMW 3 and few more.

This time It's not my choice, well not so much. Mine would be liberty Gt auto wagon. 2nd hand with 1 year warrenty - so after 1 year the modding can begin. but I don't like AWD -only for bad drivers.

I'm still looking at whats what and what is available.
Advantage of a new car is in 5 years it is still worth something to repair.

im dead set fkn lost.

.. you had an astina?

hehe.. nah, [shizzle] to hear about your car getting smacked up... and best of luck getting a new(er) car. since you like fiddlin and modding whatever car, i reckon just go with a nice GS300 (probably be in better nick than the aristo/import). itl last you a fair while, and has good potential.

**dmwill** · 9-5-07, 21:25

Mk 5 Chaser FTW.

**rodhog** · 9-6-07, 10:51

I was thinking in the 98 onward shape GS300 type. 2JZGTE it's all good VVTI etc

but right now I found something more classic but I doubt it will do but it's well Collector condition.

The search goes on.

MR-MAZDA-323 · 10-2-07, 2:13

Sorry to hear of your loss mate, I couldn't imagine what it would be like to loose your pride and joy because of some other idiot.

**RED3VIL** · 10-3-07, 6:01

Ok either i have missed it in your thread and im really blind or it wasnt mentioned so im gonna take a guess

Your car was ridden off by some p-plater who was drink driving ?

**rodhog** · 10-3-07, 10:53

yeah yeah

it's all gone now. Astina is dead where I don't know

Now instead went out and have 2 new cars in driveway or street. I should post up about it. HMM
