    After seeing smoke and fire damage on the write-off report, you're still asking this question?!?!

    Definitely. It’s the only patrol available in Australia. You must buy it or miss out.

      Ahhh, the beauty of the revision option 😂

    How the hell was that vehicle not a stat write off? That’s why they want $20k for it, so they can pay the repairer what they put into it.

    As a repaired write off on a 12yo vehicle with over 200k km on it, I’m betting maybe a few grand tops. A good condition one with lower km wouldn’t be worth $20k, even in COVID tax time.

      Seems to be the going rate for 10-12yo patrols. Carsales has them listed from $18-33k. Of course, what they actually sell for is another story. The seller is just hoping a buyer won’t notice he write off status.

      Ridiculous, but real 4wds are in high demand.

      Hey if OP isn't interested I'll take it, unfortunately I'm currently deployed overseas but I'll send a courier to pick it up. Any chance you could pay the deposit for the courier and I'll just add it on to the sale price?

  • SF3 on 22/07/2021 - 22:29

    Yes, if you want to further post about your experience.

  • Dejaar on 23/07/2021 - 11:15

    No. U have to think about insurance and whether that is possible in future.
