How long is a piece of string? How many Kms you want on a car? Auto or Manual? 4 speed or 6 speed? Diff bushes? Modified? premium leather? Premium sound? DIFF BUSHES?

Haha I look like a fool, yeah caresales is a pretty good indecation shame I live in Tasmania though. Everything is dearer here, yeah after a 6 speed manual, kms preferably under 160. doesn't have to be modified at all, just waiting for a decent one to pop up over here..

Look in Vic too. If you find one that you like catching the ferry over wouldnt be a huge drama. When I was looking for a car in Melbourne I was open to as far as Canberra or Adelaide. You might get a cheaper one with less kms and more options for the same price as a Tassy one. If you're not buying from a dealership there is no warranties anyway so it makes no difference where it comes from.

ba mk2 turbo ute.. buy mine lol as far as I know, something like mine which is a ripcurl ute, manual, 95k on the clock should be about the 22 mark, no more unless modified. things to look for are clunky diff ( known problem, had it in 2 utes ive owned), 6 speed manual can b a bit noisy, make sure they change into gear easy, not grinding or hard to engage, check rear main oil seal aint leakin and then just the basic mechanical check

Is yours forsale? Haha yeah cheers I'll keep that in mind, yeah it's still a little bit of a hassle buying one from the mainland because I would have to take out a loan and go over on the boat but I wouldn't know weather or not I was buying a lemon so I would have to maybe fly over and have a look, and then there is the problem of it maybe being sold.
