Here is one of the few that made it to Australia.
This one must have been swimming to get a statutory write-off.Doesnt look damaged.

Yeah, probably been sitting in water higher than the floorpan.
Too many issues with electrical connections if possible salt water has been introduced into the equation.
I wouldn't buy it!
(I'd take the bullbar though) :cool:

It said "mechanical damage" - wonder if it is another one with a snapped crankshaft? If so, a replacement Territory motor might be an option.

I would love the front seats. My cloth seats are a bit ratty.
