Hi guys,

Spotted this (what looks to be) wee gem on Trademe. What do you think it's worth?

Looks very tidy, low kms etc.

Cheers

Nice looking vehicle.

Headlights won't be legal though (HID retrofit).

Don't think he will get $22k for it.

Okay good to know mate.

What would be the market price do you think?

With those k's, that motor and being über tidy it will get snapped up real quick I would say. Very sought after model that one ::):

i agree looks like a great example its a big credit to them!!

it must be terrible to drive, I mean why else would you buy a cool machine like that and then insult it by only doing 56000km in 18 years???!!! Disgraceful, I say!( a little tongue in cheek perhaps)

But on closer examination you start to wonder ..........
English import vehicle previously registered in UK, therefore speedo should be in MPH but it has a KPH instrument.

You make a good point!!!

Also that rusted out capping on top of the left rear corner of the tub could potentially indicate a salt exposure. Would be wanting to have a real good look at the fire wall and doors..........

Truck looks good.

"I have been given permission to get a 110"
Jesus what a tool. Whatever happened to basic gender roles

33x12.5 probably the worst possible size for that vehicle IMO, for many reasons

most vehicles come up pretty mint with a professional groom I'd be checking that chassis real close for rust if its a UK import, it must have been good enough to pass compliance when it came into the country but I'd still be going over it with a fine tooth comb

I reckon people get way too caught up on this UK import vs NZ New pah-lava.

I means lets face it they're all UK imports... LR doesnt exactly cut corners when it comes to rustproofing... and tonnes of countries use a bit of salt on the road in winter. And in terms of overall driving conditions, the UK road network is actually a lot kinder on vehicles than the NZ road systems. ie they have much more straight highways and high speed driving, better quality fuels etc.

Our roads are very alpine, bigtime weather variations, harsh chipseal, lots of undulations, lots of unnecessary stop start traffic, lots of speedbumps, not exactly the best maintained roads in the world.

IMO a bit of salt in its homeland shouldnt put somebody off. I'd be more worried about arresting the 'factory' electrolysis you get when you bolt an alloy panel to a steel frame.

Another stupid thing to say, way to try to upsell the damage

The first time I dinged my 90 in the UK, the guy in the panel shop said which panel again?? as none of them were straight and at that point it was less than 3 months old

Having thought about this for a minute or two.... I don't doubt you for a second
