Does anyone know anything about this car? Just interested in the full specs of it, also ad says 74,000km, but CarJam says otherwise?

Thought someone might know it

I would say it's 174000kms, why you would consider paying $8K for one of those with high kms is beyond me, you could prob buy an ST205 for that money?

yeah, people seem to think if the engine is reconditioned then the odo is reset :lol:

Someone got a bargain when I sold my AE111 with 20,000kms on it then and was still cheaper than most I've seen advertised :roll:

I questioned the KMs the reply I got:

Are you the TradeMe police or just an angry person?The customer has said the engine and speedo has done 74000km since the engine was re-built and forged.



:lol: Some people get upset easy huh. Forged engine does explain the high price I guess :lol:
