Too many zeros, it's gotta be a typo.

Maybe it has a full tank of PULP????

Then the value could have been doubled to $10k

Give it another week and you just might be right.

I think they still use XEs as cop cars up that way! (or at least until recent times)

If that's the case, then an EB IS worth $10k up there :P

Got them out of "The Gentlemens' Automobile Trader" last sunday, it said 'Only the best cars, Only the best prices' and with a classy and respectable name like theirs, have to believe it. For 18k, that ED just has to be good!

Of course people in the bush don't service cars. I mean hell, if your car breaks down on the farm who gives a toss, it's not like you need to drag a cow or bull into town to sell, not like you need to run around getting parts for tractors. Hell the walk to the letter box is only 1500 metres, why not go the extra 5 kms to get the milk and paper of a morning?
