So I'm looking at these 2 patrols one in Victoria and one in Queensland. both have everything i want but the Victorian one is concerning me with the engine rebuild. Should it be a problem?. Let me know which you think is a better option. Cheers

Robert............. nice name for a car...........
my guess would be that they cooked the motor or the head and had it replaced - 180000kms ago.......... barely run in I would guess.............
but an extra $2000.00 just for 12 months rego & Road worthy......... come on........

I dont know rego cost in your state - which ever one your in, but mine is $800 for 12 months..... here in Wait Awhile - certainly not $2K worth

Louise..........
well, this sounds ok, 289K is not a bad mileage for its year - under 20K per year

really need pic's or more info
both have good fruit
both are not bad kms

just sus about the $2K drop for 12 months rego & RWC.................

Yup, it shits me when people advertise $xxxxxx for no reg or rwc and then tack on an extra couple of grand if you want reg($800) and rwc($120-$150).

Immediately gets me thinking: "So what you're telling me is that your car needs a shit ton of stuff fixed on it for it to even be deemed roadworthy".
