Hi guys,

I'm after something that might be too specific... A red manual Blitzen Wagon.... Have been scouring carsales for a few months and haven't seen any come up. Does anyone know of any for sale or someone who might have one who may be interested in selling? From what I can see prices seem to be around $25-$27k for something with 50,000-75,000k's.

Thanks in advance,
Brenton

I was looking at a Red Sdn at a dealer recently, and the salesman tried to tell me the sedans came only in red, and the wagons only in black. I laughed at him.
(Then, when I got home, I thought: I don't remember seeing a red wagon so far ? ) .

They definitely come in red:

Are u in Melbourne? There's a red sedan with 120,000 on the clock for $23,000 at Penfold Holden in Burwood. 2 owners, looks like highway k's. If it were a wagon I'd be grabbing it...but I don't like the idea of doing a wagon conversion

LOL. Yeah, I went searching and found a very old thread talking about SIX red wagons for sale at STI Docklands Melbourne, ex-company cars with under 10,000K on them.
I guess my query was, were red wagons part of the 200 (?) imported to Australia, and that confirmed it.
I'm in Brissie. Found one with 50-odd K's on it, and it drove well, but wifey decided '06 was too old, so we paid more for an '08 with 50k's on it. Go figure !
I'm still waiting for the novelty of the "gimmick" paddle shift to wear off, of course . I told the dealer initially I was interested, but it was WAY too dear at $31k (even with ODO @50k for an '06). He must've listened, coz a month later they dropped it to $25k and it went ! (Pro'lly just above trade in price, but "floor-planned", and had it way too long).
Good luck with your hunt ! One of only 200, but red, wagon, manual, not thrashed, bent, or too high in k's at the right price, not residing in Port Hedland/Darwin. You're going to need a lot of patience, I'm thinking.

Mmmmm

I suppose in order I need:

1. A Wagon
2. Preferably Manual
3. Preferably Red

But if the last 2 have to be swapped then so be it...but would like at least 2 or 3...if that makes sense

But yeah, hard to come by *sigh*

So you definitely need a wagon?
I wish you the best of luck but I have never even seen one Blitzen wagon in my life, and only 2 Blitzen sedans.

Any chance you would consider the 3.0RB post facelift wagon? After all the only reason to get a Blitzen (in my opinion) is for the Blitzen red colour, without that you might as well keep some other options open.
You will have an easier time than finding a Blitzen wagon, although even the 3.0RB wagons are hard to come by as everyone is after one.

A guy down the road from me had a red manual wagon for sale 2 years ago, i hadnt seen a blitzen wagon either, but i can assure you red wagons exist, but you might be in for a long search.
Can i ask what the specific appeal of the blitzen is to you??

I think theres a red blitzen wagon around the corner from me. Will get a pic.
Isnt it true you can't fit a townar to a blitzen rear bar????

Yeah thats what I heard greenman. They dont have a sunroof either.

Mmmm I suppose I love the interior and the front and rear bumpers. Oh and the red Dunno really...just seem to really like it

I spose a 3.0R-b with this front looks sexy too though

This one fits your description.

Might be a little far to go but....

If thats a genuine add then thats brilliant. The last one of them i saw sold was about the $30k mark. (over inflated i know, but if people will pay it, then it must be worth that to someone.)

Bit of a trek, but a nice drive to become familiar with the car.

Hey Brenton,

I'm over in W A....did you want me to go have a look at that red wagon for you?

I've got a bit of time off and wangarra's not far.

Call or message me

Thanks guys. Waiting to hear back from owner now. Ad looks good just hope it's genuine

I've got some rellies in WA who'd be happy to drive it over for you . (They haven't toured Tassie yet).
Pro'lly based the price on the red sedan I looked at. They quit it off at under 25k with a dealer warranty. Looks great if genuine, as you say.
