You don't need to be desperately trying to get rid of a car to post an ad on Carsales. It's a very cheap exercise to test the market and given the way prices have been going it has the potential to be highly profitable from a seller's perspective.Quote:

I put my car up for sale a couple of years back...didn't really want to sell it, so put a high price on it...with the attitude that if someone paid that...I would let it go....I still have it and am happy to have kept it. No mucking anyone around and it kept the tyre kickers away.......when I am buying, if the asking price in the ad is too much...I move onto the next ad...no inconvenience. Simples....[smilebigeye]
Looks like D4s are on average around 150,000km for $45k. So yes a bit cheaper and a good option if someone can't come at a Defender. It's all relative. Choice is often under-rated by those fortunate enough to be able to choose. ...I noticed today that brand new Nissan Navaras are only $33,000.Quote:
