It's not trading, Lukosh. Lease agreements by kilometres used over time of possession. You can run a closed lease with predetermined EOL valuations when you're in the big dog game. You could be looking at changing out only $20/30K to upgrade a 2008 7 series to a 2011 model.

Call.


Good it was.

personally I see 20-30K loss as a lot... but I guess when you are in that game you can afford it, not to mention you can write some of that loss off.

Leasing ams teh *** with aidz.

How can you pay to drive a car that isnt yours. Fsck that.


Also depends how you do it. My old man salary packages his cars and it works for him..

Most people would do it. Who has $50k cash lying around to buy new cars?

What kind of cake?


Was a huge chocolate sponge type thing.

About 50cm by 50cm. With big white chocolate chards around the outside.


No candles though. 80 candles would start a bush fire.

Quite honestly I am reluctant to go down the aforementioned Brumby path. I love those little buggers, but so do a lot of other people, so I just don't think they are worth what people are asking.

$4k for a Brumby? C'mon son.

So long story short, probably looking at a diesel powered utility instead.

I have ZERO idea about this market - anyone with any ideas? I can barely name three. I know utes, but know nothing of diesel.

For anyone wondering, I use the vehicle primarily on my own property where I can drive with excise exempt fuel. Only pay excise on the fuel I use on the road. ULP does not attract the same rebate.

The new Triton turbo diesels seem to be the best value for money.

The cheapest ones you can get with half good quality and not bad off road.

A bloke at work just bought one, goes harder than another mates old Club Spec 2 Rex.

old banger for the farm.. i would say rodeo lol

had so many of the things at my old work.. and they just kept going and going and going.. 400,000kms on a 05model and they were still good.. nothing fancy but its got AC and it drives.. also they are cheap as chip and have plenty of parts available cause they are so common.

Toyota would be my first option. If it's for use primarily on the property, you want minimal maintenance, yes? Cannot get past the Hilux for a good work ute.

HJ Landbruiser series would be dead set ROSIE. Depends on budget though - I think they're still up there.

You're old Navara's are pretty rugged too. And I've always liked the old Rodeos.

The Hilux is clearly the best but is 10 to 20k more than the opposition.

Being as I am shying away from spending $4k on the Subaru, I don't think I can stretch $20K for a Mitsu! Appreciate the comment though. If I had $20K - maybe this... http://www.carsales....id=1273EAAA99B2

Rodeo definitely seems the way to go.

Nar mate.

They both have their positives and negatives. Both would be fine for a run-around I would think.
