Surely it didn't go for 2.5k...what about the 6k reserve?

Thats what they wanted Cam to pay, I dont know if that is then necessarily a reserve price.. its more like an ebay auction 'buy it now' price :P

I dont see why they wouldnt take 2.5k, its not like its going to appreciate.

$2.5k is what it sold for, if it didn't meet reserve. they will contact the high bidder and try and do a deal.

they will never get 6k for it. thats not much less than i paid for mine, and it's not crashed!!

Spoke to current owner over the Christmas break.

He is repairing it to sell.

Funny thing though, he didn't see the kms on the clock and has ordered replacement parts from the VIN, so it ain't gonna have it's pretty face on when he is done.

He was also told by his parts guy that there is no difference between a 2006 Stagea and a 2002 Stagea...

Such a shame when something you pour your heart into ends up with someone with no knowledge, isn't interested in researching (or taking advice) and only views it as a "money making venture".

Shame, but if he doesn't take advice it could end up being a "money losing venture".

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
