It’s a wonder they haven’t already sold it. I can’t imagine a company like Nine running any vehicles that are more than 10 years old even, let alone one that’s getting closer to 30 years. ---

The custom fitout on those link trucks makes it worthwhile to hang on to. Plus, the idling it does to run everything while out and about means the engine would’ve been replaced 2 or 3 times by now… cheaper to replace the engine than the car. You’d be looking at $250,000 to do up one from new… and you’d be lucky to get $10k for it now. ---

I believe GTV are still using their fleet of 2002 Crusiers. The plates are the old black and white ones with GTV and some number combination, (probably 001 or something) > [@TV/Media Vehicles](https://forums.mediaspy.org/t/tv-media-vehicles/2818/8): > > From Paul Dowsley’s Twitter.

GTV has two Landcruisers from early 2002 - rego were GTV901 and GTV902. They added a Volkswagen van in 2019 which got the GTV902 plates. The Landcruiser got given new general issue plates and it still in service. ---

I wish I could of replied to this thread earlier, like yesterday earlier… Travelling on the M1 north of Coffs, I had and ABC media vehicle past my heading north. (not sure where they were heading?) I do wish I got photo, but I was the one driving. (Funny enough, that vehicle looked quite new, with its NSW number plates in the latest range of the year with the first two characters being **CV**.) I didn’t think to many cars would be getting registered this year??? ---

Being something of a car and number plate nerd, CV is a 2019 rego plate, as NSW is nearing the end of the CZ series (and it takes about 3 months to get through each). ---

Also a good time to upgrade for those with money - dealers were offering deals to get sales and the price of used cars went up as it was harder to get stock of new cars from overseas. ---
