Hi all

I have been trying to sell my padj now for quite some time, but so far hav'nt been very successful, with only two people calling about it.
It is a 1985 swb, with 172,000kms on the clock reasonable nick. I have put $2,300 neg and advertised it in the trader, tradingpost and on the net.

Is this a fair price or am I kidding myself. Any help appriciated

Thanks Patrick

Not being nasty, but maybe someone tipped them off and told them to look at your rig pics. The price seemed reasonable till I saw the photo's. What people don't know won't hurt your sale.

Feel for you buddy. Went through the same thing recently with my camper I had about 10k of reciepts for it and ended up selling it for 6 and even then he still hummed and ahrged. Upside is because it is so hard selling vehicles you can get some good prices I ended up getting my 80 series for about 4 and a half grand less than was being asked. Let me guess the 2 people that called were real D!@# heads and probably wernt intrested in much other than wasting theirs and more importanty your time.
Other option is to MM Imusty he was recently talking bout getting a cheap 4by

That's iMusty ... not Imusty.

And Heidi "feels" that another car at this stage might get in the way of her trip to New Zealand in Sept so it's a polite NO!! to me for now.

She's has got a point cause I havn't worked since my bang on the head in 2003 so I'll play house mum (with no kids) untill I get some work which might be today as Im goint to a meeting at 11 and I have to get off this thing now...

With those k's 2300 would be a good price IMO.

I thought that 2,300 is reasonable too, but still no interest.

Any body else no of any other way to sell it. How much do those 'cash for car' yards give.

IF it can easily be established that the thing is good general condition and everything works well, its worth the $2300 alright. There would be a buyer out there but he doesn't know its for sale yet ! Small urban sedans of that vintage are near on give-away, due to new car pricing. But yours is 4WD - that should "up" it to what is still a low price. Rural / regional areas might be the go.
