Up near me too, well a few hours away, but i'm willing to travel that. looks pretty nice to me, no rust apparently, small ding next to left rear indicator, full logbook history. Other than the price, thoughts?

Looks neat and tidy. Fairly low k's for a diesel too. The price is probably at the high end of the scale for a stocko though....

Ask as many questions as you can before you leave to look at it and mention that if it has even the slightest problem they are neglecting to mention they should think again as they will just be wasting your time and their own.

also ask if they can email pics you see a lot more when you zoom in.

Personally i think that is way over the top doesn't even have a snail under the bonnet.

Yeah he emailed me all the pics and I examined them over lunch. Looks pretty tidy, it's a fair price, but I'll probably pay about 10 if I get it. From a dealership for a nice car, I don't mind paying that bit extra.

LOL Yeah I've got the "Fraud" badges too, but all over the metal I'm happy to find Nissan stamped everywhere

She looks neat and a treat Brendan...I envy you the Diesel Mate..

That is a Gem mate. Make sure he has the head rests for the back seat. The Mav is a nice car mate. Note that it does not have the Wide Wheel pack! No Flares from factory and still the 6" steel wheels. Likely an older owner and should be a really good car i reckon.

The Mav came with Full Electrics which is nice and likely after market Aircon. Silvertop Motor and it all looks sweet.

Put a set of 16x8 Neg 22 offset wheels and some flexiflares and your set mate.

10K is a fare price for that car i reckon. If the Ks are legit?

If you do get a Mav, Note!! When you go to get it insured and if you go agreed or market value ask them to list it as a Nissan Patrol! They are worth more money in the Red Book! Go Figure

That's an awesome car, except it's more than 1500ks from me and is at the high high high end of my budget

I reckon that is a 2.8?? Not sure but thought the RX was only in a 2.8 and if that is the case they are dreaming. I am on iPhone so can't see the engine pic too well but have a close look.

Nice looking bus, good km's , havent seen one that clean for years but the price is too high in my humble opinion.

Can't see what it is either, the RX came as a 4.2 petty as well, only reason I know is coz mine's one lol........ Not sure about the td42 though
