I got a COMPELTELY STOCK, UNMODIFIED, UNMOLESTED 1998 Mitsubishi Montero sport LS 2x4 with the 3.0L v6 24valve. It has 168,479MI it runs/drives perfect and has an cold AC. It's my mother's car and she original owner and has ALL receipts including the original sales receipt, owners manual etc!
I am simply looking for a car, I dont need all the space the Montero has to offer and only have to transport myself; it's just wasteful to keep. I am sad to trade because this vehicle has been the most dependable/reliable thing my mother has ever owned, I would not hesitate to take this vehicle on an expedition to South Africa or Bolivia or drive it across the US.
I'am looking for a Japanese UNMODIFIED CAR Nissan, Mitsubishi, Honda,Toyota etc.. Looking for 1998 or newer, in similar condition to my montero. Dont care it it's a stick or auto, MUST have good AC and have no major issues.
Looking for a straight up trade; I cant give money but I will take money for a downgrade, or I will fix issues with the montero for an upgrade. KBB on this car is 2,930 in "good conditon" and $2,355 "fair" looking for something that matches in that"range"!
The good
-1 owner original
-runs/drives great
-Working A/C
-75% tires, no cupping or weird wear
-excellent paint, has great clear-coat / no sun rot
-all locks and windows/wipers work great
-no check engine light
-doesn't smoke, emissions have never been a problem
-Rare dealer installed OEM roof rack and stepbars
-pwr windows/doors/mirrors and all work flawlessly
-cruise control
-auto trans
The bad (completely honest here,I listed EVERYTHING, I expect you to do the same)
-Needs new center bearing(propeller shaft support bearing), drive-shaft makes slight vibration over 80+mph; common problem with these 2x4 montero's and easily fixable.
-Needs timing belt, old one is the original and it should be replaced.
-Should have tranny/rear-end fluid changed
-Goes through 1/2qt oil a month
-Radio needs dealer code, currently nonworking
-Front windshield and rear tailgate reflector are cracked
-Front windshield squirter needs a new motor
-Play in steering wheel, could use a suspension refresh (needs shocks, new ball-joints, pitman arm, etc)
-cupholder broken
-stains in carpet
-door dings/scratches
-missing one center cap retainer ring, dummy's at discount tire lost it; I still have the center cap
Recent work
-New timeing cam O-ring seals
-New sparkplugs/injector cleaning/intakemanifold/TB cleaning
-New starter
-New battery
-New windshield wiper motor
