Mount Gambier SA is on the coast near the SA/Vic border. You're always welcome. Coffee is hot & the beer is cold. :)

I reccomend dropping in on Panda and having a squiz at the blue lake while you're there. And if it's hot, drop by me in Adelaide i've always got some corona's on ice and a coupla deck chairs.

Friends call me Ashgan or Ash... But you can call me failchanic. If there's a routine maintenance job that exists on a starion, then chances are i've failed at it.

First attempt fails include:
-Changing indicator light
-Changing spark plugs
-Changing belts
-Changing airfilter
-Changing oil
-Removing rear strut
-Replacing front strut

Might be able to help you (you'd have a large choice of lush 4-star green accomodation, natural surroundings, etc etc) as I'm at the end of the Melbourne metro train line. You'd be surrounded by Starions with numerous parts not far away. Drop me a PM.
