Looks like the hj60 that I was looking at is not worth thinking about but what about a series 80 1990 petrol 265,000 for $12,800. plain jane poverty pack no extras - no bull bar, no steps, nothing. I'd say it's a little dear but then maybe not? forgot to ask - what's the fuel consumption like on these?

The early 80 series had the 3FE motor in it..NBG. Changed later to 4.5L which is a great motor but very thirsty as in 20-25l /100k. Older 80 will need mechanics looked at. Look on ebay.com.au for some later and diesel sales.

More importantly probably is the extent of the lack of fuel economy compared to a diesel and the age old trade off against rebuild/purchase costs etc. I was just wondering how bad the petrol engines are these days as I haven't had one in a wee while and the last one was a patrol and I needed a fuel tanker on a trailer to go anywhere. > if sir needs to ask about the fuel consumption, then sir may be better > served at say....... a Nissan dealer? apparently the new 4.7l V8 uses less fuel than the old 4.5l straight 6 of course I see lots of people filling their petrol cruisers and Patrols and they seem to be still standing there after everyone else has gone, Kev Kev "ken (good grief it's upside down)" wrote: > roflol - ok I asked for that.

I've just driven from Hobart to Brisneyland and back. I was filling both tanks every 700 to 750 klm. It takes 120 litres to fill it from empty. Thats in a 95 4500 80 with 230,000 on the clock. It is a manual, was carrying 5 people and a shitload of luggage, air con on all the way and cruising at 110 where legal.

Thats about the going rate for early 80 series petrols I think you'd be far better off getting the 80 series than the old 60 much better ride, better offroad extras for 80s are getting quite cheap now anyway Kev "ken (good grief it's upside down)" wrote: > Looks like the hj60 that I was looking at is not worth thinking about but > what about a series 80 1990 petrol 265,000 for $12,800. plain jane poverty > pack no extras - no bull bar, no steps, nothing.

More info I may be on the lookout for an 80 series in the coming months Turbo diesel, I think they only come in the GXL and constant 4WD looking to spend around $25000 dunno quite when yet though Kev > I have a 40th Ann, 97 model for sale soon for say $ 28k. (That is as soon as > I get the bike back on the road.) It's a 40th ann late 97 model Oct onwards, 4.5 lt petrol GXL with c/c, cd,6 speaker tape,factory tint, electronic rust prevention, ming treated,service books, air,tow bar, bull bar driving lights 40th ann trim and alloys etc, 122k's. I will be asking about $28k. But as I said the bike has to be on the road first. If you are after a turbo diesel in this model good luck, I have seen 1 for sale in 6 months and the bloke wanted $50k for it, they are as rare as rocking horse s#it. I have been looking for one myself. > More info > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > I have a 40th Ann, 97 model for sale soon for say $ 28k.

Not in QLD plenty for sale here around the $25000 mark for a mid 90s turbo diesel GXL mate of mine picked up a 93 GXL diesel for $15000 about 3 months ago I'd hate to live down south with the cost of living Kev > It's a 40th ann late 97 model Oct onwards, 4.5 lt petrol GXL with c/c, cd,6 > speaker tape,factory tint, electronic rust prevention, ming treated,service [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > soon as > > > I get the bike back on the road.) > I'd hate to live down south with the cost of living And it being full of New South Welshmen and Victorians and all.......

Don't blame others. What problem would that be Dusty? It's probably not "appropriate" to look at some sort of population control or whatever for Mexicans. But it is of note that we do seem to have far fewer so-called "social" problems up this way. And I don't actually, nor has anything I've said today indicated, that I *blame* anyone for anything. I don't *blame* you for where you live, how could I and why would I? Just so long as you and all your porblems stay there, that's just fine by me. Or are you trying to say that I have a problem recognising that you have a problem. Or something equally stupid? Tony Smith > > > Typical uneducated Mexican view......

LOL Acutally you are right. It's terrible up here. No one would want to livew here and certainly no one in their right mind would vist. Please pass this around to all your Mexican mates. There is nothing to see or do in Queensland and the 1,000,000 or so of your former Mexican mates who moved here in the past 5 years are just as deluded as we are..... Much better in North Melbourne or West Sydney............... Tony Smith >> > weather is better >> >> Depends where you are >> >True, but anywere is better than Victoria. Freeze during winter and goodness >me, 40 degrees yesterday......bugger that for a lark Ha! You've, clearly, never lived in the UK! I don't know what the two of you are bitching about. You both live in very pleasant parts of one of the best countries on earth in which to live (driving standard excepted). Sure Qld is different to Vic and vice versa but a little diversity is good surely? Believe you me guys they are both _so_ much better than most other places.

Covered the hole state. And by the way, the media reported it as being an improvement. LOL I'LL END THIS DEBATE. SO FAR NO ONE HAS CHOSEN TO MAKE MENTION OF THE LESS THAN POOR STANDARD OF BEER IN QUEENSLAND. I MEAN, LOOK WHAT REPETITIVE SKINFULLS OF XXXX DID TO BARNSEY?? HE'S GOT RE-MARRIED. EVEN ANIMALS ARE ONCE BITTEN TWICE SHY. CONCLUSIVE PROOF THAT THE ROTTEN sh.t THEY SELL AS BEER IN OUR 'SUNSHINE' STATE MUST WREAK HAVOC ON WHAT BRAIN CELLS ARE POSSESSED BY THE FEW WHO ACTUALLY HAVE THEM IN QUEENSLAND.

HE'S > GOT RE-MARRIED. EVEN ANIMALS ARE ONCE BITTEN TWICE SHY. You forget. Barnsey grew up in Victoria and was weaned on the Varmit Bait they drink there instead of beer. Hence the effect......................... Tony Smith well this is of course very true Mike I have had Poms go on about how if it wasn't for them we wouldn't be there My response is, I can't thank the poms enough, sending us poor covicts out here to this desolate place while they stay back there Kev > >> > weather is better > >> [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > Mike Harding - who also loves Thailand :) >well this is of course very true Mike > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >My response is, I can't thank the poms enough, sending us poor covicts >out here to this desolate place while they stay back there Spot on Brother! Mike Harding (An ex. Pom) as a bloke whos lived both in gods country and in mexico tony i can say that your previous statement is rubbish ....there are as many social problems up there as we have down here.........eg we cant drive through liverpool without fear of getting shot by the odd angry lebo youth who cant assimilate into our culture as you my friend cant drive/park your car/take your missus near any pub full of blackfellas in any town qld for fear of a beating/malicious damage from a pack of drunk abo youths who also cant assimilate into our culture maybe if mr beattie didnt sweep it all under the carpet you may be able to see some of your social problems. did you know that you get propagandered by your media every day .......i used to laugh everyday i read as newspaper in qld what a joke they are > > > Typical uneducated Mexican view...... Most of the extractive industry > and [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > Tony Smith All Australian states have their sores, they are as long as human settlement in this country. When does a "sore" become a social problem? Perhaps its a matter of size and scope. And the "mex" capital is much bigger and perhaps more culturally diverse population wise than in "Gods Country". Certainly the local papers are far less parochial than a few years ago. I suspect that the media are to blame for much of our slanted views of different places. How much do I know about America ? Basically that they shoot each other with amazing regularity. I don't see the average Yank living peacefully.I don't really know about the good stuff because it isn't newsworthy. The media pick up on shootings and cultural clashes. There are more people down south so we hear about more problems. Having lived in both states my personal lifestyle choice is Qld. But I have family that visit and they won't leave Sydney. (I just hate cities so Sydney is the pits for me...) Oops this is a 4wd forum not a state bashing forum. Sorry for getting confused. I need divine intervention. Might ring my mate upstairs.....he's only a local call from here :-) Cheers Jim > as a bloke whos lived both in gods country and in mexico tony i can say that > your previous statement is rubbish ....there are as many social problems up [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > > > > Tony Smith > I need divine intervention. Might ring my mate > upstairs.....he's only a local call from here :-) You won't get him, he and I are off fishing for a couple of days. Tony Smith hmm maybe in Brisvegas but not anywhere else. I'd LOVE to get one for that money ($15,.000) - in fact if there is a good diesel for that money at that age and not too much mileage I'll be there to pick it up this weekend. > Not in QLD > plenty for sale here [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > > soon as > > > > I get the bike back on the road.) Yep mate got one not long ago, was supposed to be $17000 but he got it for $15000 at a dealer everything worked(aircon included), it has just over 270,000klms on it it's a beige metallic colour, came with an ARB winch bar(no winch), side steps and Haymen Reece towbar looks in great shape, log books say it came from Cunnamulla, the dust inside certainly would confirm that Kev "ken (good grief it's upside down)" wrote: > hmm maybe in Brisvegas but not anywhere else.

The one I saw and was talking about was a 97 40th Ann model bull bar etc etc etc 80,000 k's only full service never been off road, or on a beach which seem to be a great past time of the people in QLD. Don't get me wrong and start again on the VIC v QLD crap again, there is nothing wrong with beach running as long as you clean down later. Some people don't and the last thing you want to but is a car full of salt and hidden rust. But you can get 97 to 01 model Factory T/D landcruisers with low k's in good nick in QLD let me know where ( web site, phone No, etc ) I am only to happy to come up and buy one. > Yep > mate got one not long ago, was supposed to be $17000 but he got it for [quoted text clipped - 50 lines] > > > > soon as > > > > > > I get the bike back on the road.)
