Do you want a hack first of all?

It really depends on what's on offer.

A nicely maintained original one should set you back between 25 - 35k market value, but that's me...

Your best bet is to find a bay that has not been hacked (radiator on the nose.)

Before anything else, ENSURE that the paperwork is in order...

This one has not a radiator on the front, the owner fittet it next to the moter, with 2 electric fans, The only thing that i dont like is that there is no papers for it, and I know it is a big slep to get that sorted out., was even thinking of offer the owner R2000 and sell it for spares

If you see a nice Bay parked somewhere, check the license disk and if it is OK, leave a note under the wiper 'Please call me at 082 123 4567 if you want to sell this Bus. Regards, Suzie' - as simple as that, and it has worked for me in the past :wink:

Hi Pine, I think i must try that, Im just looking for one that is 100% in working condition, and roadworthy, then I can take my tiem and sort out the dent a spray job on it, so body wise it can be dented, well hopefully not, but you understand what I say?

PM IMPI and ask him if Mrs IMPI wants to sell her Bay. It is a lovely yellow late-model 2000L in an immaculate condition. Used to belong to their church, and has all its original kilometers logged in small books :wink:
