Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have to look at a Sierra tray back ute for an interstate mate on Sat.
Other than the normal stuff whats the Zuk specific areas to be given special attention?
Its a 1.3 5 speed. Standard everything else. Farmer special.
but not from a farm.

Also he may want me to drive it up to him, in the N.T.
Its only 3900kms away from here.
What the cruising speed
and whats the fuel consumption like?

Thanks.

haha drive 3900 kms in a sierra ute
I dont think anyone who's ever sat in one for more than a few hours would even think that its possible to do. Maybe in a swb
Unless of course your a midget in which case drive on my small friend

My parents drove from perth to darwin a few times in LJ50/Lj80's before the roads were bitumised! So a sierra would a big improvement on that!
Just check the whole undercarriage, sill's, and the seams on the top of the guards for rust. If there's no rust in any of those places you've got your self a good zook!

I know Grimbo had said in the past he found his comfortable and he would be easily over 6 foot and he is not what you would call slim ...

look behinf the grill for rust, under the sill covers, under the cover on the floor and in the rubber around the doors.

i wouldnt like driving a sierra that long and im 18 and keen to drive, there just to bouncy and uncomfortable.

few things i missed on my car where,
raditor was blocked and full of shit and need new plugs and leads.

hope it helps
