Errr... Sumith's garage? I don't know the name, but if that's in Dehiwala, yes! There's no name or anything...

The one I saw is at a garage in a lane that can be accessed from Station road. It's not there anymore Well, whoever got it will restore it no doubt!

Nicw find... there are so many junkyard jewels in SL, they need to be found & put back on the road. There's an abandoned Ford Capri Mk I in Dehiwala, that's the first thing I'm buying when I make it big!!!

Rotary Power! It did win Le Mans in '91 after all...

Wiki says there's going to be a Ford RS200..... Let's hope it doesn't get trashed!!!

I LIKE!!!

Wow, I never knew there were TME's in SL! I thought they were rare.

You're right on the RX7, I guess it's because cars like that are rare here. Thanks for checking my post out!!

Did you see the GT-R crash in Malaysia? A Brand new, black, gorgeous GT-R crashed head on into something! Very painful, that... I think you can find it on Jalopnik.

Hey, I'm planning to post my junkyard jewels list here. I think most probably Saturday. I remember alot of ppl wanted to see it so I'll do it tmr. I'll send you the link. Thanks!

The red one. I've seen the others. Do you know of any proper version (4AGE) in Sri Lanka?

Yup, It's a dream of mine to own & race a proper hachi roku! Thanks again. Have you seen this up close? I've seen the other two black versions up close.

Hey, Thanks, now I can put my mind at ease!!!

Hey, Thanks, now I can put my mind at ease!!!

I love the Panda coloue scheme. The trueno was Toyota's most affordable sports car- where are their sales tactics now,eh? Nyways, does anyone know about the sale version's rear brakes? Any information is appreciated. Thanks

I love the Hachi Roku! I saw someone was signing a petition telling Toyota to re-introduce it! A bit far off, but I signed anyway!

I just saw a Trueno today, for sale! Asking price is 630,000.It's the original red/black two tone with White stripes in the center (a bit weird). I've seen this around, but never close enough to see the rear brakes. I wonder if it's a genuine 4AGE engined version with rear discs or the lower powered version with rear drum brakes. I've seen alot of those versions for sale! Any info is appreciated. Thanks!

Hey, Sorry I was silent for sometime, been busy. Another vintage car which has a "muscle" look is the Ford Falcon XA & XB. I don't think there are any here though. I also came across a Ford Capri, red, for 325,000. Anyone know about this car? I've seen another Mk1 Capri ruined by someone who wanted in on the "Import car culture" There was a weird lookin bodykit & a Canary Yellow paint job!!! What was he thinkin?!?

I dunno... I just returned from Kandy, the performance is much better now. Thanks to everyone who replied to my post!

I don't know about the "Correct" interval, but the norm should be 20k-30k or closer

Yup, I'll be able to check it out tomorrow coz I'll be goin to Kandy. Stay posted for the updates!!

& the other thing was the ATF was wayyy too old, apparently you are supposed to change it every 15k km- Mine was 23k!!

I've heard that the red badge denotes performance... It's usually found on Integra's & Civic SI's & other sports versions. Gold huh? On which model was this?

I'd love to share my "Junkyard Jewel List" with anyone! I couldn't personally go & see the RS2000, but it looks pretty real. It has the blue lines on the hood & sides like on the real one & it's also a 2 door. There is a chance that it might be a replica, but let's keep our fingers crossed!
