Title: Urgent thoughts on this 100 series cruiser !!
Post by: McGirr on October 22, 2011, 03:59:24 PM
A gxl cruiser 100 series year 2000 has 117,000 klm, new tyres, tinted windows, snorkel, spotlights. Toyota bullbar, towbar just fitted, wants $22,950 will drop to $19,000 needs it sold this weekend as he heads overseas. Immaculate inside.

I will need to add some gear and was going to offer him $17,000.

Thoughts please

Mark

Thats lowish klms for a 2000 model............ does he have log books? If it's all legit, like the others have said, it sounds like a bargain............ be sure it's not an ex flood vehicle though.
I've got a '98 petrol 100 series and love the thing. :cheers:

I bought my 2000 model (immaculate) with 130,000 on it 5 months ago for $20k so if you get it for under that it is a steal.

Looks good there Mark well done, and a great buy at that price.  :cup:

I hope it isn't a manual because clutches aren't cheap to replace I hear, and with your driving record on the Cape it could be expensive. ;D ;D


Now let the mods begin.

Impressive work Mr McGirr! Looks like an awesome unit.

I'll be watching what you do to it carefully - I wouldn't mind betting we'll pick up something similar in a year or two.

Congrats!
