Description

Easy start every time, every season. Handles long trips fine. Pleasure to drive. Always a fan of the small features that Toyota provide. Eg extra compartments, warning alarm if key left in ignition or if lights left on when exiting car, great turning radius. Just some of the small touches that aren't available on other cars. Sensible driver who never thrashed the engine or braked hard. Always kept up with regular services. Owned for 9 years. Time for a different experience. Paint work has sun damage. LHS wing mirror is broken so can't fold in. Taped up. Radio doesn't work. Tires will need changing before next warrant. Especially the front ones. Tinny rattle from transmission at certain speeds or loads but never while cruising. I've had that issue for the entire time I've owned it. No one was able to remedy so I just carried on and I've never had a problem with it. Very very very cheap to run.

  • Hi Bidders, I'm not entertaining any of the low ball offers. You'd be better off bidding to see how you get on. No Buy Now so the market decides the value. Great used car for its age and condition. Mechanically sound. Good Luck. Seller comment Wednesday, 24 April 2024
  • What’s your buy now price? d***9 (2)11:23 am, Fri, 26 Apr Hi, there isn't one. Just letting the auction run its course. chimneyman (331) • Friday, 26 April 2024

  • Is it near a bus stop from a bus coming from the city? a*****5 (513)10:03 am, Mon, 29 Apr I guess Botany is where you would bus to. I'm about 30mins walk from there. chimneyman (331) • Monday, 29 April 2024
  • I'm glad I ask. Do you want to drive it to Botany? I can drive you home or you can pick me up and drive home. Its just not like I can drive two cars home to the Northshore? Or I can walk on a day's it's not raining. a*****5 (513)10:46 am, Mon, 29 Apr Hi Abro, as per my previous comment, the car can be viewed today 11am-2pm and tomorrow 8am-10am. Please text or call me for the address. You will need to work out your own way of attending the viewing if you are interested. chimneyman (331) • Monday, 29 April 2024
  • Sound from the transmission but nobody could fix it? It's called getting a new transmission put in. c********w (7)09:58 am, Tue, 30 Apr Boom! Mic drop! Feel better? Had the car for 9 years, kept up with services, no issue, still running fine. Dunno what your point was or why you needed to make it. chimneyman (331) • Tuesday, 30 April 2024
  • Sound from the transmission but nobody could fix it? It's called getting a new transmission put in. c********w (7)09:59 am, Tue, 30 Apr Repeating yourself? So by your own logic, that's called getting a new brain put in because your memory is poked. chimneyman (331) • Tuesday, 30 April 2024
  • How bad is the transmission sound ? a********6 (44)01:02 pm, Wed, 1 May Hard to guage in words. Let's say from 1-10. It's a 1.5. Or imagine the sound of a babies rattle as you're taking off from a stand still. I understand that it can be a concern. It's a tinny rattle and it's been there for the 9years I've had the car. I'm used to it. You'd probably hear it and think it was nothing but I wanted to be upfront with as much as I could for the sale. You should really have taken the time to see and hear for yourself. Please don't bid if you're not comfortable. chimneyman (331) • Wednesday, 1 May 2024
