Description

2008 Toyota Blade Master G 3.5L V6 Grand Tourer

Payment is to be made within 24h of auction closing.

166,000ks roughly will go up as it is my daily.

280hp of V6 power, packaged into a small family friendly hatchback, with Lexus level comfort and styling. Has ECO mode for commuting, so doesn't use as much fuel as you think, until you plant your foot :)

Have owned for 3 years, and have loved it, but I'm moving country so have to see it off.

BRAND NEW Tires BRAND NEW Brake Pads Full comprehensive Service 6 Months Registration BRAND NEW WOF NEW Alternator and Battery Transmission Fluid changed <15,000ks ago

Adaptive Radar Cruise Control Hazard Detection and Avoidance System Near New Toyota Alloys in Sleek Gunmetal Gray Automatic Tiptronic Gearbox, with Paddle Shift Fully Electric front Seats Dual Climate AC Dark Back + Side Tints, with lighter Front tint Aftermarket exhaust with a nice low rumble, not too loud ABS Toggleable Traction Control

I've had car seat covers on it since I bought it, and as interior is in fantastic condition. Roof lining still in place and perfect, all suede in great condition. Have just given it a full wax and buff, a hydrophobic window re-sealing, and a full clean/detail. Only negative, is a crack in the front bumper, due to a car with a towbar reversing into the car while parked, and a few scratches/chips in the paintwork from daily use.

Happy to answer any questions. Test drives with proof of funds at my discretion.

  • thanks for confirming. nice car! i*******9 (22) • 1:35 pm, Tue, 22 Apr I use a motorcycle predominantly over summer, and it expired as I simply wasn't driving it and paying attention. Which is silly on my behalf, but c'est la vie! It subsequently flew through compliance and re-registration at VTNZ Chch. i-konarider (83) • Tuesday, 22 April 2025
  • This is my old car, I bought it as a fresh import in 2016 and sold it late 2020. Only cost me tyres and fluids. It was the most comfortable and trouble free car I've owned. Exhaust was on it when I bought it. The car also had the full TRD Sportivo suspension package. Shocks, springs and swaybars. a*********9 (20) • 12:59 pm, Fri, 25 Apr I'd forgotten about that! Yes I'm sad to see it go, only trouble I've had is the alternator which I replace along with a new battery. I've added a photo of the TRD Sportivo suspension too. i-konarider (83) • Friday, 25 April 2025
  • Yo!! Don't waste your time bidding on this. I will keep bidding until I win! k*********z (3) • 5:42 pm, Fri, 25 Apr Sounds like a plan 😎 i-konarider (83) • Friday, 25 April 2025

I still want it :-( t******y (51) • 7:56 am, Mon, 28 Apr Cheers Ray! I'm hunting for something similar overseas, and it's literally impossible to find the same bang for buck in this condition. I'll miss it for sure. i-konarider (83) • Monday, 28 April 2025
  • Do the front seats have covers on them? If so are the seats in good condition under the covers? a**********y (123) • 7:39 am, Thu, 1 May Hi, yes in the photos it has covers on, as it does still. Seats are perfect other than a tiny half inch nick on the right hand side of the drivers seat, bottom right neat your leg. i-konarider (83) • Thursday, 1 May 2025
  • Can the pick up of the vehicle be on May 10th or does it need to be before that l****o (1) • 8:56 am, Thu, 1 May Pick up is flexible within reason, but payment must be within 24h.
