Im just after something different... atleast this one gets down to the 8s per 100... unlike the wags.. highway =13 town = 18. 300k just to a tank...
Then there is the reliability.
Then the safety for whats coming, which you personally, should know Wraith. Then theres the usefulness of the tray since im a tradie...

What is the space and tray like? From everything I read the Crewman is a big compromise. Back seats have barely any room and the tray is much shorter then normal.

Tray is a decent size.
Rear seats are good enough for kids.

Crewmans have been underated & given a bad rap. If you have small kids the back seats are great. My cousin owned his from new & had it for a few years. Dirt bikes in the tray & used it for towing his boat.

Pretty good score there.

Sorry, no pic updates.. been finishing at dark every night.
Hopefully get a wash in over the weekend.
Gotta admit, for the price I got it for, its bloody amazing. Interior is basically perfect. Exterior has scratches and small dints but not to bad. Engine seems to be in perfect condition.
