Along with everything listed as to why this is unlikely a late model, can’t see a passangers airbag.


I have a November 1998 Bathurst and only has a single airbag. When did they come out with a passenger one?

I believe only jdm models had passenger air bags?

Hi Ben,
That doesn't look like a 1999 Bathurst. It has the wrong wing, front lights, steering wheel and instrument cluster.
Otherwise it looks pretty good for the price.
They tend to be pretty reliable if they've had regular services.
Timing belt & a full service would be recommended.
 
Have fun with your new toy.

Rikkir is right on the cluster, I didn't spot that. Front fogs were an option to have/not to on all bathursts, a few points to suggest its not a 1999.
 

I was actually referring to the front indicator lights, I believe they are clear on the later models..



 
Duh, late night. You are correct rikkir.

Beams 3sge - end of 1997 onwards




 
You are looking at JDM spec there Tony, no ADM MR2 came with a passengers airbag or beams engine. 
 
Post up a pic of the vin and compliance plate, one of us may be able to tell you the build date. It is most likely a rev3 or 4 car, so 1994 to 96 (possible early 97)
 
Like someone suggested, get a mechanic or someone that knows to have a look at it, could be a gem or could be a dog.

Correction, as per above, got carried away on differences in gen/s (all models) - busy day at work but squeeze in time for a post or two - lol
Bens looking at a Bathurst (light weight design that had many items not included).
