Offroad-Express

Hi all looking for some advice - seen a hilux 4runner i like the look of:
1990 nz new
3 owners
206km
2.4 petrol
$3000 or neer offer

Tidy truck, is that how much you would pay? seen one on TM go for $2600 very similar. Any issues with these engines? not prone to blowing up like the diesel imports? do they have a cambelt? is 200km getting on a bit? what is the fuel comsumption like? - i know it wont be good, but similar cost to a diesel after you add in road tax, deerer rego etc.

Cheers, any quick advice would be greatly appreciated!

my mates da uses one as a work truck, dont know much about the engine but he gets around 320-350ks on a tank but thats loaded up with gear and a trailer etc. his coat $1700 with i think around 160ks but the body is a bit rough.

very reliable, easy to work on, beter then the 2.4 deisels, are a bit hard on gas but like you say, no road tax etc, and ya cant beat nz made ova jap import, my opinion tho, standard ks i rekon and if its in good all round condition thats a fair price
