    Updated Rav4

    Hi Guys, Anyone know if we are getting an update for the Rav4 anytime now? When I checked on go auto's car diary,it didn't show any for rav4,jst camry's.Ta
  4. 15.7K isnt too bad.. like you said, the main thing is that your ok :) EDIT: Did the assessor tell you how much the damage is worth? No the assessor mustve told the insurance guys.As far as im concerned,thank god its a TWO,as I wouldve have not got more than 10k if I tried selling it.So its all good.What does OP mean? I am with real insurance and theyre really good.From when I called them to the settlement,they made it really smooth.Ive heard horror stories from some of friends about other insurance companies.REAL is GOOD!
  5. Well ignorance is bliss guys and i never really had time to look at these finer details.Like some of u correctly said the amount depreciates on renewal and it steadily depreciated in 3yrs to 15709 and thats what I will get as assessor said car is TWO. ANyway for me,this is more than I could get than selling it so praise God. Im not hurt and thats most important as humans bodies are difficult to dent and paint and far more expensive. Thanx for all ur input and concern. Cheers
  6. Thanks guys for ur concern n advice. I was going thro a green light in my lane when a woman waiting to turn suddenly decided to turn before me and we had a collision.
  7. Now my cars(yaris sedan 2006) all wrecked up in an accident which was not my fault.My que is,I have the car insured for around 20grand.Will the insurer value it with market price or will he pay me the insured sum in case its total write off?What happens in case of a repairable write off? Ta guys.
  8. Yeah.DOnt think plastic is cracked,just the paint thats gone.Ta
  9. Hi, I have a scratch on rear bumper.When I sent pics to a repair guy,he said whole bumper will have to be replaced.I dont buy that! Any suggestions/advice? I have a toyota yaris sedan.Im looking at selling it soon so want to fix this(pic attached) asap.Ta
  10. Hi guys, Do we have site sponsors on this forum? Ones who are car dealers,who can give me a good deal on a new car purchase? Ta
  11. Yes laziness is a luxury I relish! You may remember that Im no longer after the rav4,im now after the kluger.Im after a new kluger and alex had pointed out one.Ta for your patience.
  12. sorry dude,I meant 5seat,fwd.I wouldve loved an AWD but dont think it will come in the budget.It has been ages since I drove a landcruiser,yes it wont be a problem.I was just wondering for my missus.They find it hard to park big vehicles.Its just a mindset that big vehicles are hard to park.Fact is that,its harder to find a space everywhere to park them compared to smaller vehicles.Ta
  13. Please do explain how you come in here? How much are your fees and is vehicle in Sydney?Couldnt make out.Ta
  14. Theres a 2009 kluger kxr 5 with 20k on odo and dealers asking $37k.Is it worth it? I think he should reduce it to $35k,wonder if he will? With the price Im thinking of a driveaway price.Most prices shown on sites are recommended or guideline prices.

  16. Ok will see how it goes,but how is it to maintain mate? Also how about parking? Do you find it difficult to park it in mall parking spaces? Its a v6; as long as it can overtake easily and climb hills effortlessly,works for me.
  17. Ta mate,can u post some links for the above.I couldnt find any! Ta again.
  18. Hi guys, I have a budget of 30k which can be pushed to 36k.I want a powerful engine that is comfy to drive on long trips,easy overtaking and climbs hills easily.Can throw in 2 bikes in the back and easy to maintain. Does the kluger fit the bill and can I find something that hasnt done more than 25-30k on the odo? Im in sydney.Ta

    Rav4/ kluger?

    How did you go with this? Any word from the dealer yet? surprisingly discountnewcars never responded. The sx6 dealer didnt respond when i asked for a mech insp and then called me 3days later to let me know that the vehicle was sold. I dont know what to say.Anyway one of my friends who has a rav4 said that the tyre mounted on the back was a real pain and everytime he had to change a tyre,it would be a huge effort. I want to look at a kluger.
  20. I have given up on rav4 v6. I will probably look at a kluger.Dont know much about the outlander.
  21. Hi all, My budget is 30k,can be pushed to 35k. Im after a powerful engine like a v6,wagon/liftback or suv with low kms.My basic needs are a vehicle which is comfy and powerful for overtaking,climbing hills etc and something which I cant throw in a bicycle or two in the back. I recently lost out on a Rav4 sx6 2009 having 18k on odo and the asking was 33990.My only concern was that there could be some trouble with the car since asking was too low and demanded a mech insp which the dealer obviously wasnt keen and he sold it to God knows which poor soul.There must be something to it.Unfortunately all cv6 Rav4's in the affordable range and kms are in vic or qld. Can someone provide me with some new lease of life on this topic,Im at a paralysis via analysis stage,dont know what to buy.Please help! Ta
  22. yeah mate I checked out that site already.Ta.What did you mean by "you are on the money"? I meant that your offer seemed pretty good - the car seems cheap relative to what Redbook says :) Ok.That part had me worried,and after I asked for a mech inspc the dealer has done a houdini.That means that there might have been something wrong with the vehicle.Anyway if so,good riddance.Ta
