no disrespect to the seller but hes dreaming at that price, dosent matter how much he's poured into it the market value would be $15k tops if someone was prepared to pay that much :P

I reckon you're a bit low there. I'd say it would be worth around 15k stock since its manual and has low k's (for one of them) and looks tidy in pictures. I reckon its worth between 15 and 20k

I think its been for sale for a while. I saw it about 6-8 months ago on Trademe (I think) when I started to look for a replacement 4x4 and I am sure it was alot more then

Its looks like its got the Superflex arms from Superior Suspension. A nice way to spend $1500 Oz.

Bloody nice truck though. It has been on there a while starting out at $50k from memory. There was something on here a while ago about the owner donating the proceeds of the sale to Search and Rescue or something - not sure. Anyway, for $30k with all those expensive bits on it, bargain!

worth looking at when it hits 20000 ... 22 years old is the bit that matters. there all over priced when you think about that.

Agree, $20k seams to be a reasonable price for that bit of kit. If it was '95 or newer with the 24v Diesel then he might have got the $25k plus.

Problem is you don't get back what you spend on them...

It is a super flex kit but the wrong kit was ordered so they modified the brakets to suit.
