But usually IF you know what your looking at,know your prices,can get independant vehicle inspections ,thats a start I never ever beleive any card yard dribble that every car they sell has a legit road worthy,so i always get any car yard car inspected That said my neighbour paid 40 odd grand for a 2nd hand hilux and has no end of trouble with it, doesnt mean the yard is dodgy |

I remember them from Herston.
I honestly wouldn't trust buying from them.
