WTB: VT-VX Wagon V6 or V8

[BEN 189]

I am looking for a wagon in either a VT or VX. Doesn't matter if it is a V6 or a V8. Would prefer if it had at least power windows and cruise control. Not fussed on the colour.
PM me. I am in Sydney.
Thanks, BEN 189

Hi Ben,

I have the above. Navy blue. It's a Berlina. All Berlina options, power everything, extra air bags, cruise control, tinted windows, better trim, extra gauges on the trip meter thingy, etc etc. About $15K more than the base model when new!! Bought it about 6mths ago and the ferals I got it off just knew stuff all about cars (wife was the driver with kids in the back). I should have got an NRMA type check. Oh well. Nice aussie couple but new sfa about cars. So the radiator was a bit low when I got it. It turns out it was stuffed. It then turns out that the water is going into the heads, isnt it! Damn. Not happy. Rebuild of heads, new radiator, new front bushes, new brakes etc etc. $3,000 later it drives like a brand new car and will go forever! It has just over 130,000km on the clock with some log book services done. The previous owner had done oil/filter regularly. Just had a service on the gearbox and the guy said it was in great condition (previous owner's wife was the only driver). Getting a full service this Tuesday too. Also has an ipod ready Pioneer system. Im 48yo so it's not some doof doof thing! lol. Driver's side weather shield, brand new hd carpet mats inside also.

I drive up n down the F3 to my office at Cardiff so it gets about 750-800km out of a tank and is averaging 10km/100. Body aint the straightest thing and could do with a buff. Sits outside at the moment as my mum is with us for a few weeks. Bummer! lol.

Anyway bought it for $8500 and spent heaps on it (with ALL receipts. Im mad about keeping everything!). Looking for a cash deal for the same price with absolutely NO haggling. My business is winding down due to a Govt contract we are still waiting on, and Im barely going to work and I need some $$$. Rego is due in November though. After rego I'll list it on carsales for early $9000 or so. Let me know,

Glenn
