  • Car is located on the north side of Brisbane
  • $1500 ono - make me an offer!

Reason for sale

We have two other cars and a bike so I really don't need the Cressida any more, and it's killing the grass :rofl: I bought the car a few years ago as a comfy commuter and it did the job beautifully, but we've moved onto a newer daily driver and could use the proceeds from selling the Cressida around the house.

Other info

It's like riding a pillow - it really is the most comfortable car I've ever driven. It won't set the world alight but that's really missing the point - that said, they do suit JZ engine swaps extremely well, making it the ideal sleeper!

It isn't perfect though, the paint on the roof is a little cracked and it has a miss at idle. I haven't done any checking so it could be as simple as a fouled plug or a dead plug lead. I also suspect it has a small intake leak, which I haven't looked for. The auto works better when it's warm - when it's cold it sometimes sticks in 1st gear. The tacho doesn't always work (just a loose connection as sometimes a tap on the dash will fix it) and a previous owner broke the clips holding the section of the dash below the steering wheel on, it's currently held on with tape as I've been too lazy to find a new one. The steering wheel needs replacement as the foam has separated from the wheel.

To be honest it probably doesn't need much done to it, but I don't have the time or motivation to do it. As a result, you get a very cheap car that needs a little work. All it should need for roadworthy is a steering wheel, fix the miss, and secure the dash panel below the steering wheel. As far as I know, everything else is legal. It was registered up until the 11th of July and I haven't renewed it as I don't drive it much any more.

Price is $1500 ono as-is, unregistered. You'll need to bring a car trailer, tow truck, or trade plate to get it home legally. If you're quick I may be able to assist with cheap towing.

Contact

I can be contacted by PM or you can just post in here, or you can PM me for my phone number.

I can't believe nobody wants a cheap luxo barge!

Don't be put off by the imperfections, I think you'll find that a lot of second-hand cars have problems, the seller just doesn't tell you about them. I'm being as up-front as I can with this sale, so you shouldn't get any surprises.

Come on fellas, you know you want it, make me an offer, I need it gone!

G'day.

Have you thought of putting this ad on jxz100.com? Lots of the Chaser boys like these old girls.

And yes with a 1JZ or 2JZ you have possibly the ultimate sleeper.

Tell you what, I will throw a link in the for sale forum over there for you.

I used to drive a R33, but now I have gone over to the dark side...

cheers
