    That’s low K’s for Australia. Ex PoM and now living is Australia.
    My Lux LN106 did 600k k’s and loads left.
    Great work horses.
    $11k, fair buy.

    "Such high milage"...no, not for a Hilux. My last one got up to 540,000km with nothing ever done on the actual engine. The one I have now, I bought at 340,000km and I didn't even think twice about that. Toyota engines don't wear out, which is why I've had nothing but Hiluxes for the last 30 years. And yes, the leaf spring bushings are a routine replacement around that mileage.

    They did a lot of drilling and cutting into the body. Did they prime or coat those bare metal holes? If kept in the outback maybe not an issue, but in coastal or wet Melbourne could be a rust invitation.

      Not in Australia, pretty much par for the course on older stuff like Hilux, Falcons, Commodores, Camrys etc. Most cars don't rust here so it makes sense to keep them running as older mechanical parts are cheap and easy to fit for such vehicles.
