I got no answer in the daihatsu forum so i'll try here ;)

I own a SWB tb42 Mav and needless to say its not the most efficient daily driver so i've been considering a second small car for some time.... have been looking at an f20 or similiar and wondering whther it would suit for daily short commute 16km's and occassionally on straddy and moreton.... the mav can be kept for touring, towing boat or more serious off road.... anyways on way home tonight pull in behind f20 which has 4 sale sign on it..... $500 on GAS.... can't be that bad i followed it home, no smoke it stopped and turned.... he said 1000 with rego and gas certificate.....

what do ya think.... what are these things like on sand.... and parts????

Cheers

btw its a 2 seater 20lV 77 model

For a 'G' you've got diddly squat to lose. Go for it. Parts are still kicking around here and there.

yep i would say for a g with all that your laughing
like i said in the hatsue forum the mechanicals seam to last al ong time with exception of motor they eventually wear out but the body is the one to watch

the place that i know the body rust in are around the firewall,bellow the windscreen um if u get inside and fallow the wires from the windscreen wiper motor down to te dash area they rust there as well

check the rear inner gaurds, gutters, and the foot wells

i dont know any more area's
