2009 Suzuki APV - White - 126,655km - 1.6L Petrol, 5-Speed Manual, 5-Seat Van

Overview
The Suzuki APV is a compact multi-purpose van that has served as a reliable workhorse across Australia for over a decade. This 2009 model represents the later generation of the APV line, engineered for practicality and fuel efficiency in urban and regional delivery, small business, and family transport roles. The APV's 1.6-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission delivers straightforward, economical motoring. At 125,655 kilometres on the odometer, this example shows genuine age and use consistent with a working commercial vehicle.

This particular APV presents as a honest, unregistered commercial van suitable for restoration, parts harvesting, or light commercial use by a buyer with mechanical knowledge. The white exterior is weathered but intact, with the characteristic panel gaps and body lines of the 2009 model clearly visible. The five-door configuration provides practical access for driver, passenger, and cargo areas. The interior retains the original five-seat configuration with manual windows and basic climate control, though upholstery and trim show significant wear from years of service.

At the budget end of the commercial vehicle market, this APV represents affordable entry into van ownership for a buyer seeking a project vehicle or basic transport solution. Comparable unregistered APVs of this age and mileage typically guide between AUD $2,500 and $4,200 depending on mechanical condition and restoration potential. This example's straightforward specification and honest presentation position it as a realistic purchase for a mechanically-minded buyer.

Condition
The exterior white paint is dull and oxidised across all panels, consistent with age and outdoor storage. Panel alignment is straight with no evidence of major accident damage, though minor dents are present on the rear quarter panel. The bonnet, doors, and tailgate show surface-level weathering and minor stone chipping on leading edges. Rust is visible on door hinges and lower door panels where moisture has accumulated over time. All windows are intact and functional. The five-door configuration operates smoothly. Wheels are steel with worn tyres showing significant tread loss; spare wheel is present in the rear cargo area.

The interior is heavily worn throughout. The original grey fabric upholstery on all five seats shows deep creasing, staining, and visible tears, particularly on the driver and front passenger bolsters. The steering wheel is worn and discoloured. The dashboard is intact but shows fading and minor cracks in the plastic trim. The headliner sags noticeably in places. Floor mats are worn through to the underlying metal in high-traffic areas. Manual window winders are present on all doors. The basic heater and ventilation controls are present and appear mechanically sound. No aftermarket infotainment or modern conveniences are fitted.

The engine bay is accessible and shows the original 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine with its characteristic finned rocker cover. Fluid levels are low and the engine bay shows surface rust on metal components and minor corrosion on battery terminals, typical of a vehicle stored outdoors. The engine itself appears structurally intact with no obvious external damage or major oil seepage. Hoses and belts show age-related hardening. The five-speed manual gearbox is in place with linkage visible. No modifications or aftermarket components are evident.
