Went to trade the '92 hilux 2.8D (213,000kms) at a toyota dealer for a Prado. I was a bit surprised at the trade-in offered.

I know that it's an older model dual cab but its gots lots of after market stuff bolted on and they were only prepared to offer around $8K as a trade. I estimated I put on at least $13K of extras, ARB front & rear bars, suspension, turbo, radiator, side steps, h/d clutch, and more.

The dealers don't appear to consider the value of the after market add-ons when working up a trade price. Time to try a private sale - cheers Anthony
