VT for the Misses.

[AB]

Ok, I may get struck down by lightning posting this but would love your thoughts on this VT commo for the misses.

Her VP drives like a bucket of poo, diff about to blow, no AC for summer and about 20 other minor issues that I can't go into now..lol

Any thoughts on this beast would be appreciated!

Would obviously offer 5k max.

Just need a quick cheap family car before the VP finally gives up!

Mate, I don't really know what the going price is but to give you an idea I just sold my '02 VX II auto wagon for $3500 for quick sale with 170000k.
Redbook says VT exec auto $2300-$3800

Good luck

Nisspat mate, you should have told me about the VX..haha

Interesting though. This is the best one ive seen so far on Carsales for the last few weeks in VIC.

Yes, I wouldn't trust the figures on redbook too much.
Cars sell for what people think they're worth....

There's a few cheap ones out there but you might have to travel to get them

Yeah, I should have, ay.
Thats why we should all advertise items on this forum...just incase one of the members is interested. OK next time.

Andy wagons are worth little more than sedans. Looks tidy. What's the 6 months reg worth down there? It is thirteen years old. Check if any front wheel bearings have been done and if torque converter has been replaced yet. Torque converters go on them between 15000k and 20000ks. i'd try for $4900 if it was here.

what a bloody shame you did know about Kris 's car AB that would have been ideal for ya......

If you don't go for this one, post back here & maybe one of the members might spot one for ya.

Just rung the bloke. says he's second owner which i may believe. Has the original plates still "letter P".

Cheers Finly, ill check on that, good idea!

Seems all good on the phone. Worth a look atleast.

He wasnt too keen on my 5k offer...haha. He'll come around i hope!

I know Pauly....really kicking myself...haha

[RustyNails]

My missus had a VT Acclaim which we sold to buy the Patrol, she still kicks me for doing that, was the best car she ever had, even better than her RX7.
Looks in good nick.

good luck andy keep us all posted.

[AB]

Not sure now.

Rung him up, all seemed good but no service history at all which worries me a bit.

He also is sticking to his 5.5k price unless he cracks and calls me back.

Back on the hunt again me thinks...lol

[patch697]

He is asking top dollar for he's car & without a service history thats a bloody big call (speedo's can be wound back on them thing) so all in all its now a 3k car all day.

[Finly Owner]

Bugger! Let him come to you now or otherwise he'll think you want it no matter what.

Agreed........ It looked the biz but without that service history..:eck05:
