Hi everyone, I am a former 80 series owner and am now coming back with a 100/LX.. I am a bit unsure on price and hope for a bit of guidence from you guys.

The 470s I am looking at are both 2005 with full options. Interiors are 9/10 and exteriors are 9/10 on both. One is white with tan interior, the other dark gray with gray interior.

White - 109k miles
Gray - 90k miles

Both vehicles are 1 owner and have good service history.. however, neither has had the timing belt replaced..

Both are priced at 24k, is that a high price or should I be negotiating harder?

Thanks in advance for the advice. :cheers:

What part of the country? West coast that's probably about market, maybe $1,000-$1,500 high. East cost it's probably $2-3,000 high.

If they're good, well-cared for, 1-owner, accident-free vehicles and they're exactly what you want then I wouldn't think too much about paying a little bit of a premium. IMO, your prices are in that range. There's a subjective factor of quality which the market averages don't capture.

Timing belt is 1,100 at the dealer. A more comprehensive DIY can be done for $500-600 over a weekend with average tools.

They are both midwest trucks so surface rust on the undercarage.. but that's about it and expected.

Thanks for the response.
 
I got my 05 last year in great condition for 26.5K with 75k miles on it.. And i shopped around for about at least 6 months. Those prices seem legit.
 
In March I purchased a clean 2005 TLC, 160,000miles, all service records, one owner ,with title, detailed, . $15k. Best of luck with your search.

damn thats a good deal.

I am looking everywhere to get an idea of what is out there for a LX and its crazy.. people asking 14k for a 98-00 with 130-150k miles and not exactly all records or perfect condition

Yeah, it is not easy to find a quality LX/Cruiser.. Maintenance always seems to be a bit behind on every decent one I locate. Got kinda lucky with these two..
