Wish I had the money

Yep.
Brand new never been used.
rex

Cool, I'll give you a buzz if I'm heading up your way and grab them.

Hi Vozza,
Best to wait till I have sold the van first. I am not going to let it go for silly money so if it doesn't sell, it doesn't sell!
Rex

Now on eBay.

Why are there so many w#nkers on eBay?

Didn't sell on eBay, lots of lookers, so not going to sell. Will now install decent sound system etc and keep. Have to put my other ideas on the back burner.

You know it makes sense!

Yes I was ignoring my inner voices!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very good to hear Rex that you are going to stay!
Merv.."YAHOO"Mate

common sense prevails YEAH

Good call keeping it, but I'm surprised it didn't sell for the money you were asking. I've see it and it's very sexy, I was thinking to buy it myself but don't need 2 vans just yet, you'll be the first to know when I do.

Think it's a bit of a sign of the market. i also think that as Fiona says some people are talking crap about grey imports and putting people off. If only they new about how many secondhand jap imports there are in NZ and Ireland!

Yeah the grey import thing is a bit of a joke.There are literally thousands on NZ roads.What you get in the way of gadgets compared to a NZ new van is beyond compare.For the money I paid for mine,if it had been a similar year and model NZ new ,it would not have had,soft closing door,aircondtioning let alone both front and back.High quality stereo,and the list just goes on and on.
The Jap imports have allowed people like me on a low income to enjoy the mods at a reasonable price compared to non import vehicles
In the 20 odd years I have owned import cars,never have I had a problem.Service them as you would any other car and they are trouble free.
Oh,and don't tell everyone,if they all get to know the prices might just go up

well you are all just rubbing it in now. Apparently because we have 4 kids the bank wont give us money to finance one Even though my repayments would be less then our current ones. Stupid banks.

Since the GFC banks have become much stricter on lending. However hasn't prevented them making huge profits - in Australia anyway!
