how would you pay super s

[CMF_1300cc]

how much do you think you'll pay for a super s micra 1996, pwr steering, no aircon, done 230k? private or dealer

 

[CMF_Pierce]

the old 2-3k golden rule? private cheaper, but do your own thorough fault inspection - in fact do that with dealer as well.

 

[CMF_1300cc]

would a 4k....a fair price from a dealer, with 10 months reg and 1 year warranty?

 

[CMF_nsm]

no air kinda mucks it up....is that the white one in vic???

 

[CMF_littlebear]

For those $$ and kays and no A/C it should be pretty clean for that price.

Offer them 2500 and see how you go.

ya

 

[CMF_nsm]

as little bear said,$2500.00 is a fair price.....

 

[CMF_1300cc]

you're joking....in a car yard dealer?

 

[CMF_Pierce]

Well if you have to choose a car yard to purchase a super S then obviously 2500 wont let you drive away. But 2500 without the aircon is a totally fair deal at that mileage. Just remember that a private dealer is not after a fair deal he is after a profit, if you absolutely positively want a micra and that is your only option then i say don't pay more than 3500. In fact considering 10 months of rego in qld is probs worth 500 and the 'warranty' for 1 year its worth 3500 IMHO. But don't expect a lot of coverage with a warranty from a second hand car yard.

 

[CMF_littlebear]

I kid you not. I bet they will let it go for 2k! Someone be quick.

The one littlebear posted above you looks to be in WA.
Decent buy though, would be worth the trip over and train it back to Melbourne

 

[CMF_1300cc]

how much do u think will cost to transport that here melbourne

 

[CMF_sikK11]

not that much to drive it back surely....

 

[CMF_littlebear]

From memory it cost me about $400 -$450 to get White Knight from Perth to Adelaide.

 

[CMF_1300cc]

ill send an inquiry to the dealer and see if they can transport it here in melbourne....if yes any member here who lives in that area can check it for me? please!

 

[CMF_Jon (2)]

based on where the car is in WA the distance from there to Braeside is approx 3470km. driving it back wouldn't be all that expensive. 6-7l/100?

 

[CMF_1300cc]

ey jon_ the problem is, i dnt think i can drive that far by myself, coz the farthest i drove is from melb to brisbane and it make me nuts, especially when you dont see any houses , just plain fields....lol

 

[CMF_micragirl]

what a shame it is red

 

[CMF_littlebear]

With PS and Air for that $$ do a respray. Being red the paint is prob knackered anyways.

 

[CMF_Jon (2)]

what's with everyone being picky with a car based on colour or the fact it has No A/C, both can be changed.

 

[CMF_Pierce]

haha Jon you're totally right, I mean if its a car you plan on picking up to fix up then don't go looking for the 'perfect' car...

IMO the longer it takes to build up to finish (whatever you consider that to be) the more fun it is to look back on.
In life it's not the destination that's important, it is most certainly the journey - which is why you should pimp your car as much as possible, cause it's what takes you on your journey!

 

[CMF_nsm]

what a shame its in WA...and its got air....

 

[CMF_620racer]

Just had my Super S trucked from Perth to Adelaide, $462. They picked it up at the dealer, I collected it from the depo. If the dealer can drop it off for you, it will be cheaper again. They even washed it when it arrived (needs another one now). Perhaps get it delivered to Adelaide and littlebear and I can deliver it to the eastern states for you ;-)

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Come on Nick. Stop sitting on the fence mate and just buy it!!

 

[CMF_nsm]

waiting for your white one matt....lol

 

[CMF_1300cc]

went n have a look at this car in footscray...car dealer was firmed with $4k.....with AC no PS...213KS, i was willing to pay $3200...but he wont let it go below $4k....

 

[CMF_chargeR]

I also looked at that car last weekend, and wasn't super impressed with it. If it had A/C and PS the price might be more reasonable but 4k for a car with that amount of Ks was a bit excessive.

I bought a different one instead .

 

[CMF_1300cc]

so did u buy another micra

"so did u buy another micra

I did. Nothing too exciting though, just a daily driver to get me around so I don't have to drive my other cars.
