Priced to sell ... ?

it is "only" a 4x2 ... cheaper than the 4x4 prices

2,7 is not the most popular, and thus cheaper. BUT, we did trip of a few thousand kilos in a 2,7 - VERY impressed !!! Sure, no 4 liter. But a decent package for the normal driving.


Just possible it is a real deal. still on the low side, so be cautious .... might just be a bargain.

Please don't go down the route of "maybe I can convert it to 4x4"

that one is a financial and engineering nightmare nê!

Looks neat and clean in the pics and the mileage is fairly low. That price is way low so that makes me wonder if it's got some issues, or even maybe a scam. Of course it could also be a real bargain of a deal and priced to sell fast as Chris contemplated. :think:

Moet net geen deposito betaal voor jy hom gesien het nie. Ek het ook so geluk raak geloop en stuur toe iemand na die adres om te gaan kyk. Die mense by die adres het van niks geweet nie. Vals adres
