Monteros on craigslist

[jhill15]

This looks like an amazing rig...1996 SR with less than 24,000 miles.
The only down side seems to be the asking price of $10,500!

Holy crap thats pretty sweet! The price...not so much. I wonder why it has 2 stereos lol, or is one a dvd player???

Despite the mileage full Nada is only $4k, I would pay that and probably more, but $10k is a little out of line in my opinion. It's still due for a timing belt, that is for sure.

Kelly Blue Book quotes this rig at around $7,000...that was with "excellent condition" selected.

Wow, that is a huge difference between KBB and Nada.

Still hunting for my first Montero...

This 98 Montero just popped up on craigslist http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/4698003299.html
Looks great and has low mileage but the price is ridiculous. What's a realistic offer price for a monty in this condition?

Here is a cheap 95 SR that needs engine work http://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/cto/4694134234.html - Is the loud clicking noise something easy to diagnose and fix? Timing belt? Lifters?

Those are cool, too bad it's not a diesel or a wagon.

I think this belongs to an expo member, but not sure who... not mine, but wish it was! (but if it was, it wouldn't be on craigslist)

Yes, that was Imnosaint's ride. If I remember right he sold it and bought an H3.

He posted it in the for sale section as well http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=132500

But, all the pics from both links are from imnosaints build or at least 95% of them. So I would be interested in seeing current pics of this rig. Not from before he bought it.

Looks pretty clean from the pics. Any recent maintenance? Also, looks like it was issued newer license plates at one point as cars from that era would usually have license plates beginning with a "3" or "4". Possibly out of state car, previous custom plates, accident, etc. Just something to look into as it is on the checklist of things I do when shopping for used cars. Good luck!

No rear locker, makes me sad.

it looks real clean, but as the LS you don't get a locker, and I think the axles are smaller as well, the ring & pinion gear are not the same sizes as from the SR. The locker is really what is going to hold you up on the trail, but the smaller axles will leave you totally stranded if they break. Also, has the 3.0 engine, not the 3.5. Rear jump seats are missing too.


it looks really clean though
