Holden On to Happiness, But Ready for Hay!

Selling my 2019 Holden Trax, freshly fitted with a BRAND NEW engine just 1,000 km ago, and it’s got a 12-month or 50,000 km warranty to keep you cruising with confidence! This beauty has been pampered with regular servicing and just had a professional valet—she's shining brighter than a new tractor (which, unfortunately, is what I need on my lifestyle block now). No hay has ever touched this car’s pristine interior, but it’s time for me to trade in urban style for something a bit more...farm-friendly. I have covers on the seats for protection ?? but the seats are that leather type. Grab this Trax before it bolts!

Price: $19,000
