Bought and towed a 1.5 tonne boat and trailer from Coffs Harbour to regional WA a few years ago.
The guy selling the boat was going to trade in his Magna wagon for $2500 (had about 230k km on it - never had the heads off, no water pump, starter or alternator etc. Can't remember about the timing belt / chain).
I bought the Magna to tow the boat home. Did 1000 km a day and the thing never used a drop of oil or water and felt like it would go forever. Plenty of power.
Got it roadworthied for peanuts and WA rego'd and sold it to a backpacker for $2200.
I reckon it's probably still going.
