There is a widebody Starion that is located in Wollongong (1 hour south of Sydney) for sale that the owner is willing to let go for a reasonable price.

I imported this one myself on his behalf but it must now be sold as he has lost interest. It is an original 5 speed and is in excellent mechanical condition. The interior is also in excellent condition. The body needs some attention as it has some rust on one of the quarters and also on the lower door sill.

PM or email me at charlies (at) mpx.com.au for contact details and pics.

Price is dependant upon whether it is sold complied and/or registered, but will be around the $8K mark.

Needs to go ASAP.
