Good ones are still bringing $25000-$30000 and he couldn't figure out why we just walked. We will sell it privately and just buy a new one for cash and not from that dealer.
We sold it privately for $25000. First person to look at it bought it. The sale from his arrival to submitting all the "paperwork" online took 35mins.
I must say I couldn't believe the number of scammers trying. I managed to have fun with some when I was in the mood.

great result on the Hilux and I'm not surprised what you can get on the market for it.....
I keep tabs on them still having my 2010SR5 in good nic with 250k.
I loath to rid of it one day but can still get something like mid $20's for it.
The yoot market due to the high new price costs buying 2nd hand is like the current Falcon Commodore market tbh.
What did you end up buying LG ?

We bought an Everest Sport. Didn't need a dual cab any more as I just use the AU ute farm hack.
