Body has done 278,XXX k's and is my daily driver. Engine K's unknown, please read below in condition.
Location:
Located in God's country - The Shire [NSW for those who are not locals]
Condition:
Pretty damn good if I do say so myself. Little bit of rust on roof + boot ... Got a quote to cut out the rust, re-spray the whole roof and little bit on the boot seal for $500. You may get it done cheaper, but I think that is a good price.
Leather is in pretty good nick. No rips or tears on the rear seat, front passenger seat is good, driver seat is fair to OK. Door trims in good nick too, generally the leather is OK all over. Some little stone chips and such here and there, but still looks like a pretty nice car.
Mechanically, there should be no problems with this car. My mechanic was surprised with the condition of the 7m that was put into it. When he changed the timing belt, it still had the stock Toyota one, which may indicate that the engine did not do over 100,000k's .. But we changed it just to be safe.
Reason for sale:
Well, I got this car as a potential 1 or 2j conversion and to teach my missus to drive. My Evo project is costing me more then I wanted, and I just bought an FTO as a run about. Evo will be on the road in about 2 weeks, and my original plan was to then put this in for the 1/2j conversion which will not be happening as I had to replace the 7m engine, and don't see the point in now throwing out a good engine.
Car gets me over 400k's to a tank of petrol, with A/C on + all city driving. My daily commute to and from the city is not exactly in the worst time for traffic, but this engine is pretty good on the gas... So much better then the old 7m that was in their....
Price:
Well, I guess there is what she is worth vs what I have paid for her. I was looking for Cressida's for a while before I bought her, and I know what is out there... Looking for a quick sale of $3.5k
Not many pictures available, but let me know if you want them... I will post what I got ...
