This 2004 Toyota Hilux is 16+ years old, which moves it into project / collectible / hand-me-down territory. Pricing in this band has more to do with condition and rarity than age.

Verify the lien status through whatever public registry South Africa uses (DMV / DETRAN / Registro Civil / etc.) before agreeing to a purchase price.
