Whoops! Staz #3 has arrived...

Post by JPC »

Whoops! Accidentally bought another Staz :oops:

I saw this advertised, so I thought I'd have a look just for interest :? . Instead, I ended up going back a few times, talking to the boss (read: wife), some considerable haggling and then drove it home. Silly me.

In a pathetic attempt at self defense, it's in great nick, and obviously been very well looked after. It's a JB, central locking, with JD front and rear spoiler, and option D60 (for those that don't know the option numbers, that's LSD) :D .

Having said that, I think I need some serious help. I'm almost certain I have MSS (multiple Starion syndrome). Why am I doing this :roll: ?

Some pics:

Great find :o I've always been a fan of the tan interior, particularly tan/black dash etc.
I think this unit has enormous potential, but that will result in the 'CSS' condition.

There is a cure for 'MSS' & 'CSS', but it's an expensive cure. Dial up '911' or better still, drive one!

Sorry in advance if I've offended some....

Tell me about it.

I look at every Starion I see advertised. :(

There's always room for one more. I need a twin cam four cylinder to round out the collection. :)

Your new purchase looks nice, it reminds me of my mates sweet black JB, one of the nicest I've seen................until a tree landed on the poor thing. :(:
