No they don't Nigel. Not yet. Checked out the showroom this arvo and they have an impressive
selection of prestige cars for auction this Saturday. A very impressive RR said to have cost in the vicinity
of $1 million. They are hoping for around $300,000. That thing is huge.Hell ,I couldn't afford to put tyres on it.lol
Have a look on Turners website. Heaps of personalised plates as well.

Brian.

Went to Turners this afternoon. Very slow sales as you would expect of cars
in the $50,000-$300,000 range. 2003 RR Phantom cost new, One million dollars
was passed in at $200,000. It belonged to a FINANCE COMPANY, as did a lot of cars there.
A very rare vehicle with not much hope of being complianced was a
Lamborghini LMOO2 1989 year. One of 301 made. Known as the Rambo Lambo.
Bidding went very slow and didn't look like it would sell till it went for $100,500.
The price guide was 30000- 60000 dollars.
These were popular with the oil rich Arabs for tearing across the sand. Pirrelli
made sand tyres specially for them.. Sadam Husseins son Uday is said to have had one
until the US soldiers blew it to bits. Not sure if he was driving it at the time.
These things look similar to the US military HUMVEE. Very impressive if thats your thing.
They have a 5200cc V12 Countach motor.

The 240Z, plated DATSUN, comes up on 5th November. It looks to be a very sound car,
needing a bit of a tidy,

I was going to trade the Zed on it , but then realised we couldnt afford to put enough gas in to get home.

To be perfectly honest, I would feel a proper tryhard to drive a lot of the vehicles in this sale. A Viper V10

engined Dodge ram went for 42500k. Steve Crow of the porn industry was there. Hope he didn't recognise me. LOL
