In the current market I think around 21-23k is viable

Good Km's if legit - a sin to paint those Rays black though!

Judging by his ad the Kms are legit as he states any test welcome, original export certificate supplied. It's rare to see dealers or private sellers providing original export certificates - dealers usually wind Kms back.

As for the rays - they can be easily painted a different colour either DIY or powder coated for 100 bucks here in melbourne

FYI - I must have missed it in the car sales ad but based on the JPcentre calculator, the car is a April 2003 Series 1 model.

Extremely low mileage for a 9 year old car.

Whoops, just saw that the carsales ad identifies is as a 2003 model. In any case, use the attached link to get to the JP centre calculator. Input CPV35-[insert last 6 digits of the VIN number] and you will get the details of the year and month of production.

Just an additional verification tool in your quest for the new car.

yes that is correct.

Just to let you know though: when you purchase a car, to make sure the kms are genuine you should look at:

1) if they have all the log books, from japan/australia, with full service history from day 1.

2) the export certificate (original not photo copied)

3) check the interior wear/tear - steering wheel wear/gearknob is faded or not?

4) test drive the car - is it smooth?

if you really want to get into the details you can also see if the rotors are lipped/ plenum condition....

if you purchase from a dealer, 99% of the time they won't give you the original export certificate. and 99% of the time they will only supply Australian log book history not the japanese ones.

Cars with low mileage is not unheard of in Japan, public transport is extremely convenient over there and people tend to just use that,

Thanks fellas. I think I have found what I'm after.

just to give you an idea mate, when I purchased my car (2004 coupe), I went to about 4 dealers here in Melbourne, out of all the "genuine mileage" cars they advertised, they did not provide auction sheets/log books or export cert for any ---------------------------> I wonder why???

[SMOKEYV35]

Picking up my V today - bit excited!

Bought off a forum member, so you might recognise the car but don't think he posts much.

[SMOKEYV35]

Thanks Yun, she drove home like a champion, and I love how it turns heads.

Got a few small plans, but don't think it needs much to be close to just the way I want it - you've done all the hard work!

[whtbox]
