hey all. on sunday i took a 7.5hr greyhound bus ride up to sudbury to buy canucksmarauder's marauder and then drove it home another 7.5 hrs. let me tell you it was well worth the drive. I just want to say canuck is a standup guy. he took great care of that car and so will i. i've been looking for soo long to get a marauder and i finally found the right one, well worth the wait.
i can't wait to start sinking money into it:)
heres a couple pics i snapped quick from my cel.

Only problem I have is that it took you 7.5 on greyhound AND 7.5 in the Marauder???
You took the scenice route? Or you were just getting a feel for it?

My brother, the 91 Vic is nice...but stand by to be transformed. Get a tune Lideo or or one of the other venders. You're gonna love this car.

haha i no what you mean tito. trust me it was hard to stay out of the go pedal but my shop was nice enough to lend me the dealer plate so i didn't want to take any chances, but let me tell you, now that its all transefered to my name, i've been ripping on the damn thing all day!

tell me more about this lidio tune, canuck was saying somthing about how it allows a downshift to first when you ham on it?

Actually, from Essex to Sudbury and back, that's pretty good time. Once it took me 43 hours to get Edmonton to Toronto. Nonstop. That was a long drive.


Good to hear that a Marauder stayed with the club! :welcome1:

freakstatus: yes i has higher miles but its rediculously clean and the engine only has 12x,xxx kms.

DR: i made decent time on the way home. the way there on the greyhound was actually from london to sudbury, not essex. seemed like we stopped in every town on the way up. it took forever!

I think i'm having deja vue.



Any other information you would want you should have asked for in the form of a carfax and an Oasis report from RoyLPita. Beyond that looking at the car, and getting there by bus and paying for it and driving it home would have been the way to go.

8K what a steal.

Congrats from the East Coast. Hope you have deep pockets cause this car is going to RUIN you! I swear that apart from Body Kits, there are more cool parts for Marauders than there are for Mustangs.
So, how do we have a national rally in a country that is over 5,000 KM wide and damn near as high?

Sounds like a neat idea!
