100 Series LC 4.2D What is it worth

[slobo]

Hi Guys,

I have found a Landcruser 100 series 1998 model 4.2D with 169 000 km and full service history. The guy is asking $22500.

Do you think it is a good price for it?

Also I did the RACV check on the car it came very positive except two major items.

1. Clutch operation shudders slightly on take off (further investigation needed)
2. Front hubs - excessive driveline free play (further investigation needed)

What do you think about those in terms of possible costs of repair?

Cheers,

Slobodan

I think you will find nearly all have the clutch shudder, mine has and i did read on a forum that it is common

Thanks for reply mate,

So clutch shudder shouldn't be something to worry too much about.

How about the driveline freeeplay?

Sorry not to sure on the free play, but the shudder, common. Mine has it hot or cold just a little on take off, foward or reverse.
