Hello, new to the 4x4 scene, looking at a 2000 VX Prado 3400cc V6 with 160,000K, 2 owner in Black and Silver, price $14K NZ, purchasing specifically to carry the 4 offspring and towing the boat.

Questions for the experts.

1. What sort of km's should one of these motors be good for.

2. What km's should/should have the cam belt belt be replaced.

3. What is the average ltrs/100km's fuel consumption etc.

4. What should I be visually be looking for when I view it, of course I will be getting an AA Inspection, but is there anything obvious.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi,

Point one you are asking how many k's should the engine be good for? Read my thread 58,000k's Blown engine to give an idea what I have been through, something may stand out in my story to help you.

Regards,

Maba
