U sure thats ex-pursuit? When the WAPolice used AU's as their cars the pursuits were XRs. Sure that's not ex-undercover?

FTe_XR8- 04-12-2007
now u mention it my mate had one but in blue way back when they were new and he pulled into a questionable mates place and they all fled thinkin it was the po po!!! and he sed his was an old undercover one so good chance it is old undercover, i still love it though being a big jump from the EB+EA i used to drive! my dream at the moment is to get BPT to stroke it i spoke to em i just need the money!

Clontarf[X]- 04-13-2007
Haha yeah, the one thing I regret about buying my XR is not getting an 8... *sigh*

yeh thats a nice tidy car i really like e series, prob the model that turned me onto the blue brigade in my formative yrs! yeh it came with the bodykit and CSA mags wish they'd put a S3 xr bodykit on or done a better job of this one cos the white sikaflex is comin off and the screws holdin it in and stuff r a bit below par, i might get it tidied up and take off the rear door triangles dont like.... if i can i'll change it to the really classy grey aswell!

FTe_XR8- 08-21-2007
thought i'd give a quick update on the interior, i've still gotta get power windows for the back before i put the black door trims on but i put the fronts on and got a black centre console, so much better! i just need a few bits and pieces like handbrake cover and bits for the lighter grey in the dash. and i also finally got the better taillights so she looks much cleaner without any orange! wadesta/cool.gif

With AU`s where all series 2 XR8`s 200kw and where ALL series 3`s 220kw? only was it just a limited number thing?

FTe_XR8- 09-02-2007
thats the way i always thought they were, except the limited number of pursuit S3 XR8's that were 250kw but they were the stroked 5.6 from the T series.

GlennO87- 09-02-2007
Yeh how horrible is the orange its an eye sore aint it!

I been looking at AU`s for months XR`s cant find any without rust either under the bonnet or boot struts........starting to get on my nerves....ive looked at about 13 give or take..

FTe_XR8- 09-03-2007
yup mines got a touch of reddish at the struts but more along the bottom of the back window i think it must have been changed and not done properly. their out there! good luck with the hunt im sure you'll find a fine specimen if ur that dedicated.

FTe_XR8- 03-15-2008
finally pulled my finger out and starting to spend some moolah on the AU picked up the high series bonnet for a steal at walliston wreckers was meant to get the fairmont grille but they sold it already. but i'm on the lookout for another one as the old grille has about a 1' gap between it and the bonnet. and i'm also picking up a bigger t/b from XH5LWEPN this arvo cheers mate.
