Poor Bastard Marcus:

OK boys here's one for ya's. 9.5 years ago I first fell in love with this ute. At the time it was on it's second owner who happened to be a cousin. 4.5 years ago I bought this ute off my cousin for (at the time) a reasonable amount of money; seeing as he had put a reconditioned motor in it and only clocked up 35,000 km's in 5 years. I purchased the ute at approx. lunch time Tuesday, registered, insured and changed it into my name on Wednesday, and this (the accompanying photo) is what it looked like at approx. 4pm Thursday. That's right, 2 days and 4 hours after getting my hands on this work of art. I won't go into to too much detail, but, I wasn't even in it, I was at cricket training. My little brother was taking it for his first drive when another car failed to give way to him. So for the first 12 weeks I owned my ute, it sat in a panel beaters for 11.5 of them. I cried for a week! but the good news is that I still have it (although it has had a few things added). hope this little story is good enough for ya! And i hope that this part of your site does well.

Cheers, Marcus. (marcushpc@hotmail.com
