I need to save money up for the baby and another house so no more car game for me =[ But I'll be back in the future with a vengeance! I will probably be keeping the Bora though as it's got every feature I look for in a car (besides fuel economy).

Btw I haven't looked but the Bora should have ISOFIX right? My next mod will be a Recaro baby seat.

Bora's a good car for baby duties, the boot's a decent size.
The isofix or child seat latch might be just mounting points on aussie vehicles

Such a sweet mod, should've been standard.


Put some fusion wiper blades on the Bora
Got some light scratches on the windscreen, has anyone used a polish or something to really clean the windscreen?

Seen it done many times!!! You'll have to remove the entire trim as the rear is the first part that needs to be fitted as it hooks into the roof if you try to fold it you may leave a crease!!!

yeah was dropping on long drives. Didn't fix the problem though unfortunately. Looks like my thermostat is stuck open.

Attempted to instal the springs and shocks last night. Too hard to break done the shocks to swap them over with basic hand tools.

ISOFIX will be legal in Australia in the new year...

General News - Australian government gives Isofix the nod at last | GoAuto

Thought I should chime in here... Yes they have the isofix points... I used them for my sons clip in capsule holder, hes now in a forward facing chair and uses the rear latch point and seatbelt.

Just did poly control arm bushes, feels so much better and a set of floor mats fitted from Car mats - custom tailored carpet mats and dash mats

The Bora seems like the perfect car and size for a baby.

But will the laws apply to older cars ? or only cars presented for ADR ISO-FIX approval from 2013 ?
