Hello all, at a local car dealer there is a black vx ss for sale, its an auto and has done 116,000k's he is asking $12,200 drive away, I was just wondering is this a bit steep for a vx ss ?

Not too bad for the low km for it's age.

You can get them a lot cheaper than that but not many will be that low milage

Pending on condition and true kms. Ok price.

Negotiate right and prob get under 10k.

that's pretty steep imo, that's almost in VX Clubsport territory.

If it's not a Series II I'd avoid it also.

VX SS (Original owner).
The low km are the big factor providing they are legit and all the service books are present. The $12,200 is a drive-a-way price, not sure what state you are in but in Victoria there would be close to $450/$500 in stamp duty and transfer fees in that price, also it is a dealer so they have to give a 3 months warranty by law, probably room to negotiate but I don't think it is over the top. The cheap VX SS's you see probably have over 200,000km on them and are a money pit waiting to happen. Private you may do better but there are things to be cautious of buying private.

wow, that second one is sold already - I must admit it was a bit of a steal, had under 100000 and was cheaper than the one in the OP.

The bloke at the car dealership said to me that's the best he can do, I reckon he is tugging himself, I'm just gonna say to him that. $11,000 to $11,500 is all I want to spend. It has been sitting there for a long time I'm sure he wants to sell it.
