Default AU11 ute

Hi all, just test drove an au11 6 cyl manual ute. From a car yard. It has 108000 on the clock and drives very nicely. From what I can see under the bonnet it is stock. No cai or extractors. It has either 17 inch or 18 inch mags but they are looking a bit old and scratched. It has also been lowered a fair bit. Its not an XR but it has an XR front end and the bonnet with the bulge in it like the XR8BA. They were originally asking $15000 but went down to $12900. I offered $11500 and they ummed and arred but said they would take it. It has the ute liner as well and it has a good red paint job. aircon works and also has an alpine stereo with the wiring for an amp. What do you all think. Is it woth it.

I just had a look at all the internet car browsers like nqcountry cars and the average price their asking is 14990.

I paid $8000 for an AU II XLS 4L ute 5spd last November with 130,000k.
It's in very good condition mechanically, interior and paint.

I doubt I would pay more than $10,000 for what you're looking at.

SOUNDS EXPENSIVE although I know Townsville is an absolute rip off for buying any car.Take a couple of days off work & fly to Brisbane over a weekend. You will save thousands
