Owned since 37,000km/1 year old, first owner WA police.Front wheel bearings seem to come up every 100,000km for me. I do love to smash the bends though. Probably bought the wrong car for that but maybe that's why I enjoy it so much None of the ancillaries like power steering/alternator have died yet thankfully! Gearbox wore out (slipping under power) over time due to the power being used daily so I recently had it rebuilt to far stronger specs. Bushes/balljoints are my enemy though, always replacing them. Again, the hard cornering probably doesn't help.Like the others warned, any car at this level of km is a concern. Shop around and if it's cheap, go for it! Lower km is likely to be better though...but never can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spinning Donating Members 348 Member For: 15y 5m 4d Posted 24/04/14 08:10 AM Share Posted 24/04/14 08:10 AM As is very offen the case, if the car has been built with respect , as a long term keeper, than there will be real savings to had for the buyer / purchaser. However, if it been slapped together and is on the verge of failuring big time , what may seem as a great buy will quickly turn into a night mare . If you have questions, and it is clear you have , and good reason too, unless the reply is pausible and in line with what you would expect , then stay well clear. If it then passes the honesty check , then proceed to have the car checked by someone in the know and whom you trust before shelling out your hard earned. Good luck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd wager dollars to doughnuts thats the old Nizpro ute. (which is a total bargain at that price) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
