Hey guys. Spotted this on fleabay,
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/2002-Suzuki-Jimn ... 2025wt_922

Low k's. Colour I want. Power options. All looks good? Guy says he will ship it to me (gold coast) with a Rwc. Etc.

Can anyone give me any info on this mob? Heard any good or dodgy stories? Cheers!
Looking to put a deposit down ASAP!

i just bought one from Millicent South Australia 2 months ago, i live in brisbane. Flew Down and drove it back. If i where you just drive it back form sydeny. For piece of mind pay for a RACQ inspection to be done on it, under $200 from memory.

Try NRMA, or failing that, call a mechanic local to the area.

Mate, I think it might be the same mob I bought mine from. Car is great, but because I financed through them, they overcompensated the finance amount and ripped me off claiming that it was for the cost of rego. I really wanted the car so I wore it. I live close by, and I have tomorrow off as I'm looking after a sick wife, and I've gotta a job interview lined up for tomorrow. If I've got enough time, I could go check it out if you like.

Mate. If you had the chance to do that I would owe you BIG time. I really appreciate the gesture. If you can do that, start it up, mYbe go for a quick drive, and tell him youre looking at it for a bloke from gold coast, and you give the go ahead I'll put a deposit down. Then when I fly down and get it, I'll be dropping off a carton on your doorstep.
My number is 0401782221 if you wanna text me, or just msg me on here. You're a bloody legend mate!

Got your number. I'll message or call you either way wether I manage to get there or not. My job interview is across the other side of Sydney and apparently takes about 4 hours, so I hope I can get back before they shut, otherwise Saturday morning I can defiantly stop in as I'm driving past to pick up some parts for a mates car. If you wanna lose the wheels, they could fall off at my place :wink: I'd rather them than the 15 x 7 alloys that are on mine at the moment

Nice easy drive, best if you can take someone with you.

Hey tintop. I'm in bundall atm, how about yourself? And rockhopper, best to msg me if you can cos I'll be working late, but either way I appreciate it heaps, which alloys do you have on yours? The basic ones that come on them with all the holes? Or the more spoked ones? I think I will fly down there. Seems like the best option really. Flights are only like 80 bucks haha.

No probs, will sms. These are the alloys on my car. Drivers side rear seems to be a little buckled, but the clear coat is starting to craze on them, and I reckon they look pretty shitImage

Great price!

Yep. Said he will get a spare wheel and a sideskirt which is not on there for it. Jimny wobble? Elaborate? Haha. How bad is the rim buckled? I like the look of them but would hate to drive 1000k with a really bung rim! Lol

The jimny wobble normally occurs between the speed of 65kph to 80kph, after that it should go away. The fix of it, well there are many different fixes depending on what is causing it.

Too bad this one is a shitter. I had a look at this for pixelvandel, but if anyone else has seen this, save yourself some time and keep looking. It had multiple problems and will cost whoever purchases it more $$$ to fix. If the odometer is accurate, it's had a very very tough life.
