This is the first T I've seen under $16,990...So I'm assuming that most of you this one's a no-no then...?Cheers,Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to be on the safe side you would be replacing a lot of wear and tear items on the car and all the fluids to be sure. That alone will be 1k+ for mates rates.

I would say that there is only 10 in Hobart....they must be alot more plentiful on the big island??Anyway buddy what ever happens hope you get the car you want and it makes you happy, cause in the end that's really all that matters Edited 25/09/08 06:10 AM by xr0500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jet_paul Member 56 Member For: 17y 10m 30d Posted 25/09/08 04:01 PM Share Posted 25/09/08 04:01 PM just because it has 200ks does not mean it is going to be fuucked.my cousins friend has a T with 270k and is running fine. he had done chip and engine and running gear was all standard and fine.So get a comp test,and get it checked from top to bottom. especially check the turbo, diff box.also people who buy these cars should not worry about resale value. You will lose the same if you buy this or bf. Maybe even lose more on a bf because they are still have a long way to drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it at a dealer or private sale?I would think with the amount of cars you have researched you would have a very good grip on the current WA prices.
