Default advice on what to look for when buying BA xr6t

Hi guys,

I will be purchasing a BA xr6t (MkI) 5 speed manual sometime within the next 7 days. I've read some pretty worrying threads on this site re: problems the 1st BA's had.

What should I be looking out for? I hear the diffs were pretty ordinary and the front discs were subject to shudder etc.

The one I'm looking at is in QLD (I'm in Tas). Is it wirthwhile getting the RACQ to check it out first?

HAs anyone had any experience in purchasing interstate re: registration transfer etc? I'm told that stamp duty on rego is 2% in QLD and that it is 3% in Tas but that I can't transfer in QLD and save on stamp duty unless I'm a resident of QLD.

Any advice would be appreciated.

cheers.
