There is a pic of the susuki dash in the photo album. The middle car is a little different it,s got an A15 with an auto ( on purpose ) it has the hyd hand brake working of the clutch pedal. So in motorkanas you don't have to take your hands of the wheel to use the handbrake or change gear. Its very easy to drive and works well. The suspension is standard at the back with a vannett axle and 4.8 locked centre. The front is mostly sunny with longer control arms and it dosn't have any sway bars at all. Olboy

There's a product called 'Catalyst' I think thats how it's spelt. It gives a great base to paint any type of paint over the top. Also, I only want to know about the wagon! Has it been recently painted, is it for sale, do you know where I can get another wagon? Mine has had it's day and I don't want to be another coupe owner. Not that there anything wrong with coupes,I do need one to finish off my 1200 collection, I'm only missing the coupe form the group. But I need a new wagon.
