Not hard to put lowering blocks in though!

My petrol courier had 350k on it when I sold it, I bought it with 170k on it, and it had heaps of life in it. It was on gas too. Petrol with high km's is fine.

hahah @ this thread so far

I totally agree with everyone that the car looks like it's owned by a bogan and yeah, it would be returned to stock, bumper fucked off, and stickers removed immediately... except the flat tray, that would have the carpet removed and get some tie down points on it.. Don't care if it rides like shit... the 2 times a month i do the shopping 1.5km down the road will not make a diff, I really want it for bike loading so low is good, if its not legal it will be raised as I already have cop problems.

And yeah... would not pay the full 7k, would offer 5 assuming there was a real warranty and receipt for engine.

Bockle - My mum had a 91 camry that blew a water pump and overheated cos when she was driving it she did not notice the temp in the red and steam pouring out like all great women drivers o.0 - it got a reco engine for 1k... that was 15 years ago... my uncle still drives it :-)

If you buy an ex fleet car. Make sure as hell it didnt come from Repco, we all flog the company cars and they only get serviced on time if their not needed that day.
