6.9 Queensland

[Styria]

For a change, there is no need for me to criticise a 6.9 listed for sale - as if I should really, but then again it's best to be perspective as to merits or otherwise of an offering.

With this car, I can't tell which exterior colour it is, but it looks very agreeable to me. The overall condition of the interior looks good and also very original and genuine. For a positive change, the backseat has not collapsed, the front door trims are still nice and tight, and the rest of the interior is quite a bit better than showing age related patina. I don't know if I would pay the asking price, but in my opinion it seems a somewhat better car than the one recently sold by Shannons. Regards Styria

N.B. BTW, it is fitted with the high compression engine.

It's anthracite grey.
Looking closely, I see a bit of rear seat bench sag, but not too much.
No duel horn rocker switch on console. Interesting combination of km/h speedo with Fahrenheit temp and imperial oil pressure.
Avantgarde in UK has similar condition car for GBP59995 so this one is "cheap".

Is that 6.9 formerly owned by a Member of the MB Club Qld?

Driver's seat looks to be in well above average condition.
