hey mate, thats heath from the local 4x4 club, always seemed to go anywhere, pretty good money for what you get really. the owner has his own workshop and seemed to keep it in good condition. it had the 2.8 diesel and thenhe swapped a Lexus into it and now the commy motor.

you could get him to get it to wellington, get yourself a cheap web flight to welly the drive it home (if it has a WOF)
I was quoted $1150.00 +gst by jeffs to transport trailer (with a 4X4 on it) from P North to chch, thnat would have cost mejust under $1400.00
I drove up (left home at 4am, got the ferry, drove to palmy, picked up truck/trailer back tom Welly, bought a pizza ($10.90) slept in my tow vehicle (isuzu bighorn) at he ferry terminal, got the 1st ferry south, home by 5pm next day.......
Total price for ferry, fuel, diesel tax, food and accomodation (if you can call it that).....$780.00
