Kom, kom, baie manne daar!

However, there are plenty dealers in that area, most in Zambesi avenue.

Be VERY carefull with your dealings there. Somw skobbejakke operate from there and are known to turn back the clocks, sell rebuilts, etc.

Not saying all in Zambesi is skelm, but Caveat emptor!

Milage suspiciously low.

If not verfiable by Toyota walk away.

Anyway, for R200k you can possibly get a newer model or a non-stolen model at least!

unless the codes have change, code 1 new vehicle, code 2 second hand vehicle, code 3 rebuild or stolen and recovery, code 4 special build vehicles such as three wheelers and fire brigade trucks. This vehicle cannot be a code 2!!

Should be a code 3 if stolen and recovered. Banks are very hesitant to finance code 3's
