Got an invite to Sandown from a mate who’s dad was taking his Holden HQ out. I’d forgotten how much concentrated awesome attends these things on a regular weekend.

R50 V10! I check every toureg I see for this badge. So rare to actually see one

Was checking out this Exige when two beautiful FD RX7s turned up. Such a great looking car the FD

Very dedicated S2000

Me and a very nice Esprit

Stock twin turbo slick top! Rare and desirable spec. But definitely needs new paint, condition wasn’t all that

I saw this Viper run. Sounded incredible

There was also an FG Falcon with a *very* tuned Barra I6, a heap of Elises, too many silly old English cars and not a single MR2 save for mine

I think it's awesome how many MR2s we have in the this site

can’t say I’ve ever seen a v10 of that gen Toureg, and super nice MR 2, (but what is with the  ketchup on the brat?)

It makes sense! You gotta be suss of an “enthusiast” who isn’t into weird/fun cars.

It is awesome

Brat? That’s not Australian.

Either is ketchup.

You gotta have dead horse on your snag.

They’re highly uncommon. You gotta look for the R50 badge, or the “V10 TDI” badge on the back instead of the usual “V6 TDI”. I think the blue brake calipers are a thing too.

ha, love it - ketchup on your brat in the states is a huge offense.  :)  Mustard or nothing my friend!

Legit I have no idea what a brat is. Brat means snotty child, or, what the Americans call the Subaru Brumby. Urban dictionary isn’t helping me.

TBH anything other than tomato sauce here would be offensive. I’m partial to BBQ sauce (no idea if that’s what you guys call it) but I went with tomato because I actually thought I’d be insulted if I didn’t.

The people I was with own a Commodore and a series of Kingswoods and Statesmans and stuff and I swear this is true, a pet kangaroo. You don’t fuck with tradition in front of them.

“Brat” short for “Bratwurst”

Oh man. T hat makes perfect sense. We just don’t call them that, they’re sausages to us
