Could be a very good base vehicle. Pricey, but there are some parts such as the bumpers which would probably be in your budget anyway so effectively the vehicle is nearer £6.5 - £7k in real terms. High miles for the year but probably motorways to clock that up on an R.
If it's good underneath then worth a go.

Why are they all appearing now?

It's the law which Sod wrote, you should know that by now Chris

Don't be too disparaged Chris ... it's probably a shed still

Another gold one on today too. Dealer but very good advert. Import with 95k on the clock. That genuinely could be good.

This looks like it might be a good buy for someone wanting to upgrade http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C381480

Gold.... Gold I hear you say !

 

[Chris]

Well you know, gold, rust, whatever. It's that colour that so few people want. A real mistake on Toyota's part. I understand it was a limited run because they ran out of blue paint.

Arf arf.

The seller actually disguises the fact by advertising it as beige to hide his shame I guess.

I particularly enjoy this bit "build for serious off roading,adventure,yet not used for off roading" complete with the pictures of it on rocks at the top of a hill.

...and now it's gone! That was quick - maybe his shame was too much and he gave it away ! ;-)

Clearly none of you would understand!

Give it up will you Laz, you must still be smoking some of those dung based cigars you found in Namibia

 

[Chris]

No, no, that's not fair Tony. Gold is actually my favourite colour too. After blue, green, red, silver, black, white, green and silver, silver and red, blue, have I already said blue..? OK, beige, brown .....

Cigars? Cigars you say .....

 

[Olazz]

Heathens, the lot of you !
