"EXCELLENT!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

New engine @ 20000km

2 new diffs

upgraded speakers.

General comments?

Awesome mile eater, goes really hard, excellent comfort, great family car, uses NO OIL, excellent fuel consumption for a 1700kg car, no complaints at all!

Doesn't sound excellent to me. New engine at 20,000 k's? Uses no oil? I'm guessing the reason why the engine was replaced at 20,000 k's was BECAUSE of the very well known problems with oil consumption with this engine. Besides, how did you know it had a new engine at this mileage when you bought it with 69,000k's? Was that meant to be a selling point from the dealer, that this thing needed a new motor at 20k's? Should have done yourself a favour and bought a Ford Falcon.
