    Default Where to buy n AWD

    I have been looking for an AWD Magna/Verada for a little while now but can't seem to find any... Anyone got any tips on where to look in Melbourne? So far I have tried a few mitsu dealers and looked around on drive/etc.

    Yeah... Internet search is usually the easiest way..

    I saw my first TJ AWD other than mine yesterday driving down the road.
    Made me feel a little lame cause his was the nice burnt orange and mine is plain jane white...


    Anyways...
    Trading post websearch shows a black TJ exec, a Silver TL and a Black KJ GTVi AWD (although I think that's way overpriced at nearly 20k).
    Carsales shows a blue TJ, silver TL, black TW VRX and 4 veradas.
    Carpoint seems to list the same as carsales 'stock' wise.

    Carpoint is Carsales now
    I've noticed there are less cars for sale in general nowadays
    Looks like people are holding onto their cars as if you sold a car now you would loose out a lot more than compared to the start of the year before the "recession" began
    I think you'll just have to keep looking until you find the one for you

    Carsales.com matey.
    Be prepared to travel though.
    I had to fly to Adeliade and drive home to get mine... it was exactly what i wanted though so it was worth it.
    It was the only one i could find in decent condition at low k's at the time.
    Just think, Rite now AndrewD is at home thinking about lowering his Coffee table.

    There are 10 on Carsales.com atm
    However the people posting them are listing them as 4WD drive type, not AWD drive type so just refine your search a bit and they should pop up.

    The ones I found wre all listed as AWD.. But, yes, I'm not too surprised to find that 'some' people have listed them as a 4WD... The stupidity of the human race will never cease to amaze me..

    I have just told them if they move the price closer to 12-14 we might start talking seriously.

    EDIT: They said no

    Tell 'em 'es dream'n.
    I'm sure if you keep an eye on it, he will drop his price eventually as I find it hard to believe it'll sell at that price.
    I watched the price on my TJ drop from 16k to the 10k I paid (6k plus trade-in) over a period of 5 months.
    And that was last year.
