Hi
I am selling my Nissan Lafesta (2005)car.
If anyone interested please contact me on 0225848890.
Located in Forrest hill.
Price is $6200 Negotiable.
WOF expired on MAY 2024.
This is in full working order, nothing wrong with it. We are moving to a smaller place and won't have room for it.
Two people will be needed to carry it away, sorry but I won't be able to help. No collection Sunday, I'll be away for most of the day.
