(from Jan this year... to now...)

Had it detailed, polished, a few chips in the paint repaired, done it's
100k service. Advertised it about 3 months ago for $24k, and got a few
interested, but because of covid lockdowns, they were unable to come to
melb and view it. Then for some reason or other, i've had seven people
interested in the last 2 weeks, and lo-and-behold, first that saw it
bought it. For $22,000. Had SMS offers last week of $15k cash no rwc;
$19k with rwc; the old scam, "i'm in a mining camp blah blah...twice.)

If you dont talk shit, you'll do well. That's now 4 chariots i've sold
that the first person who saw it bought it.

Less stress, and cheap motoring.. I paid $44k for it 9 years ago. :-D
Sold for 1/2 price :-D

BTW, still loving the Ranger.... :-)

Nice work. It's a good time to be selling anything at the moment, as
Covid is sending people around the bend :)
