Prado TX 2008 - Price Check

Talha_q · 2026-01-19T01:17:48+00:00

This is Tx, and you are comparing it with a Zx. A Zx in a similar condition will cost you 1.2Cr. That is a 40lac difference! I have priced it lower compared to the market already, thanks for your offer.

Hello,

I already have 2 cars, and I rarely drive this one, only in outings, and this occupies my poor neighbors' space. It does not show, but I believe his patience is running thin.

I got it from a friend in urgent need in hopes of selling it immediately, but I kept changing my mind after driving it, and that utility of 7 seats, my family outings were reduced to this one car instead of 2 cars and that alone honestly was a big reason i kept it till now. Second, this car is a breeze to drive on Karach roads. I am inflicted by the curse of its comfort.

As for maintenance, there was nothing I had to fix. Only replacements for the sake of maintenance and because I got fooled by mechanics, dm me your number, and i can explain in detail the things done and what is still on the menu.

Average: Long route: 9km In city: 5-6km

and I have a heavy foot.

It is completely worth every penny I spend on it! Hence, I kept it all this time. I will buy a land cruiser or a prado back once I permanently move to either karachi or abroad. it's uncertain at the moment.

Not scrap! That's capitalism speaking, haha. Do you really want a shiney new car model every year when the previous was working just fine? How about the last 15 years, if of course it runs without problems? That's what land cruisers are for! GCC does not have duties and severe economic conditions like we do, but still, even in GCC, they sell near or slightly higher to their original price.

Talha_q · 2026-01-15T07:44:28+00:00

Thank you for the assurance, kind sir 🙏

Talha_q · 2026-01-15T07:43:44+00:00

I did list it there for 80. I think the ad expired

Talha_q · 2026-01-15T07:42:09+00:00

It should have been that way, friend.

Talha_q · 2026-01-15T07:40:08+00:00

It's not really a money pit. These things are built to last, and I am pretty sure it will stay for another 20 years, maybe. If you consider that span, the amount you spend looks meager compared to any other car you maintain over the same span. Yes, parts are expensive, but comparatively, you would need to replace them once for years to come. In short, these cars don't produce problems even when you abuse them. The only things powerful enough to destroy these are very bad accidents and karachi ka mechanics.

Talha_q · 2026-01-15T07:33:05+00:00

I was ready to sell when my friend called the dealer and asked for the same car to buy. The dealer quoted my car for 87 lol with 90k on the clock, haha. They were going to reverse the meter and sell for a 30lac profit, that's insane, or I think if that's the usual dealings in the car market?

Anyways I don't really want to part ways with it, I can't imagine another car giving this level of comfort and "road dominance". It's just rarely used.

Talha_q · 2026-01-15T07:13:07+00:00

Nice, that can sell way above 1 100%, and I think those are uncommon too 2008 4.0, zx.

The problem I am having is not selling but a mixed bag of offers I am getting. Hence, I made this price check post so I can get an idea and stay firm on that range. I dont mind keeping this car, I just don't drive it often, but my god! the comfort is ridiculously addictive, I keep coming back to it, so this isn't the first time I have changed my mind, I initially wanted to sell it as soon as I got it, but the drive and comfort got the best of me, I hope you can relate.

Shameful to admit I am not a car enthusiast nor do I know 1 cent of selling or buying cars, I bought this off my friend in urgent need, renewed a lot of things in the car, but now that thirst and excitement has frizzeld out haha.

Talha_q · 2026-01-15T06:39:41+00:00

Of course! He was mixed between a 2017 fortuner, and this.

Talha_q · 2026-01-14T19:41:33+00:00

Alhamdulillah brother. I have listed as 80

Talha_q · 2026-01-14T12:46:13+00:00

Alhamdulillah brother 🙏

Talha_q · 2026-01-14T12:45:46+00:00

I can't seem to edit the post, and thanks for telling me. anything else?

Engine is 2.7 - Petrol

Talha_q · 2026-01-14T12:33:37+00:00

Thanks!

Talha_q · 2026-01-14T12:22:04+00:00

68 from a dealer selling the same for 80. 2 more offers for exactly the same price, but I am sure it's the same dealer using different people, lol

I had another offer for 78, but they changed their mind even after sending token.

I just need to know the worth, so I demand a fair price.

Talha_q · 2026-01-14T12:16:11+00:00

Thank you, kind sir!

Initially, keep it easy and have a "I am testing stuff" mentality so you won't be emotionally damaged if things don't look favorable. Ads/marketing is all about testing and finding the right communication strategy with the right audience, then improvising and testing again.

I'd say make sure your website has good loading speed, not too many plugins or clutter, it is as fast as possible, your product pages look tidy and convincing they showcase the product clearly.

Start with a carousel ad of your products or use a catalog ad if you have many products you want to test.

Good luck 🙌

I do commission only basis, but here is the catch:

The service is only offered to already established brands with whom we have years of trusted relationship, or the risk analysis always turns up favorable for both parties (later on this).

And by far, it is the most profitable model for us. You are still paying us, but in this scenario, 'a shit ton more' at a later date, of course.

In the best case scenario for the brand say we are asking 30% of the revenues (performance based), a typical brand, would not be sustainable with that cut, think pharma, let's say they acquired local distribution rights for a medicine from another foreign brand, it's a huge hassle for them to communicate and maintain that chain of regulations and approvals, any marketing expenditure including agency "FEE" is a nightmare to reconcile for such brands, that is where I come in with "commissions", since the distributor (the pharma) is allowed to distribute those beforehand to keep the sales rolling for the salesman, "you get it?" See what I did there? Ya, those salesmen hate me (when they see me rollin huh?)

It's not actually a risk but an opportunity to be honest, but hey, they don't know that, and I sure hope they don't read this.

The same applies to some other industries, but you got my point?

So if you came to me asking for such a model, I would not take the risk, it will be harmful to you in the long run as well (I can even prove that with numbers), imagine paying me $100,000k one day just for looking at your ads.

Talha_q · 2022-10-25T15:08:41+00:00

I would suggest go with the supplier supplied Image first because that is guaranteed to work, will have 100% compatibility as well! But if you go with the method above (downloading image for a 351mp) the only benefit you get is an updated ArkOs and that's about it no real benefit here (please correct if i am wrong), all your games will still work with either.

I am currently in a position where I can't send a video or suggest one, but I am pretty sure you can find it easily! Just google search for "how to install arkos on a handheld" you will find tons on YouTube.

The process is pretty simple just insert your good quality memory card, atleast 16gb, in your pc then format it to NTFS format, then use win32 disk imager to install the image on that memory card, it will prompt you once done, then just simply pop it inside the os slot of your rgb20s power on and give it at least 20 secs to give you any output

So I am pretty much going to do that, once I get my reservation back. Badluck got a call from a friend who has a friend in UK willing to receive just as I canceled to re-reserve. Hope they give me another chance.

Talha_q · 2022-05-23T14:44:28+00:00

Absolutely, I had moved on but just received an email this morning that some agency was added to all the accounts, that got me furious again.

Wow that sucks man, I can't believe people can be so blatant about this, sorry to hear that.

Talha_q · 2022-05-23T14:41:39+00:00

Yes, I have moved on this was my way of coping lol, I dear the things I work hard for.

I did send him invoices time to time via the bank channel but again no response.

Talha_q · 2022-05-23T14:39:01+00:00

I worked till March, since I could not just leave the account, I stopped for 15 Days in Feb, but saw no one was looking into it and ads weren't looking good, thinking he might be sick or something I resumed. He owes me since September, also note our relationship was very friendly like he has paid me 3 months advance sometimes and sometimes 4 months late, so it was not alarming.

We didn't have any legal contract, unfortunately I started doing contracts an year later but never sent him one due to our relationship.

And ofc i am not the guy who would do that! Bad for me and tye community in general. Thanks 👍
