I picked up the Torana DVD collection at Big W for $25. This includes the 1970's XU1, A9X and SLR 5000 DVD's.
These retail at Ezy DVD for about $60.

The best part was I got it with money from a work bonus! :spoton:

I started watching one of them today. Great DVD's.

I will be buying a set for another forum member who does not have access to a Big W, and will probably grab a few extra sets. Its about $5.50 for postage, so if you want a copy, let me know and we can arrange something.

Yep... no Big W here either unless I drive to Hobart. So if there's a spare set, I'd be interested.

FYI I looked on ebay this morning and they're available for about $40 plus postage so that BigW price is cheap! :)

If you really look around, most on-line shops are asking $60>$70 + P&H (Chevron, HSV etc)

So the $25.00 is dirt cheap, who'ed have thought a huge multi-national organisation like BigW looking after us :blink:

I got mine for $23 with my massive 5% Staff discount. I've watched all of the DVDS and the A9X one was the best. It was a crack up to see my mates old man in the SLR 5000 DVD. I used to hang out at the Queens ave workshop when I was 18 cause I'm friends with Ian Tates son. I had no idea back then of how special the place was.

read this thread this morning and rushed up to Big W at gateways in Perth amd they had never even heard of it. i still had a look anyway but it was my cousin that served me and he had a pretty good look. Oh well, guess i'll be doing a couple of trips around Perth.
