Car for sale

Susan from Chartwell

FOR SALE – Toyota Camry Gracia 2.5L station wagon.
White. Grey interior. Good condition. 1998. Radio, CD, cruise control. Automatic transmission.
WOF until July 2019. Rego until April 2019.
ODO reading is 350,000 but this is incorrect. Claudelands Automotive replaced the entire engine Jan 2018. The new engine had done 176,000km so is 152,479km less than the odometer reading. This engine has now done 197,520km. I have the paperwork from Claudelands Automotive that shows this. They replaced the cambelt in 2016.
It still runs well and has coped brilliantly with my commute to Te Awamutu every day. It is still comfortable to drive and sit in and is easy to handle. Toyotas go on and on, so 200km on this engine means it should have a few years left in it yet. $1,200, but will negotiate.

Price: $1,200

Poll: Would you help your kids out with buying a home?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

OPINION: Over the past year, I’ve had the same conversation with many Waikato families again and again.

A child has found a house. The market feels like it’s moving. There’s pressure to act quickly. And before anyone has really had time to think it through, parents are being asked to step in with cash, guarantees, or equity from their own home.

Would you help your kids out with buying a home? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
