2008 Holden Rodeo RA LX Dual Cab Utility - White - 256,873km - 3.6L V6 Manual
Overview
The Holden Rodeo RA series represents the final generation of Australia's iconic working ute, built to handle both job site demands and everyday driving. This LX-badged example is powered by a 3.6-litre V-angle six-cylinder petrol engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission, delivering the mechanical simplicity and reliability that tradies and rural operators have relied on for decades. At 256,873 kilometres, this is a vehicle with genuine work history, presented as a practical, honest workhorse rather than a showpiece.
The white exterior shows the patina of a vehicle that has earned its kilometres. The paint holds acceptable gloss across the panels with minor stone chipping visible on the bonnet leading edge, consistent with highway and rural use. Panel gaps are even and body lines are straight with no evidence of major accident repair. The four-door dual cab configuration provides genuine five-seat capacity, making this suitable for small crews or family duties alongside trade work. A fibreglass canopy covers the tray, showing weathering typical of outdoor storage. The overall presentation is that of a genuine working vehicle, not a cosmetically refreshed example.
Inside, the cabin presents with honest wear. The cloth trim shows age-appropriate patina on the seat bolsters and steering wheel rim. The manual gearbox is mechanical and straightforward, with a positive shift action. Climate control and basic infotainment are present. The odometer reading of 256,873 kilometres reflects real-world use, and at this mileage point, the Rodeo's mechanical durability becomes a genuine asset. Parts availability remains excellent, and the simplicity of the design means repair costs stay reasonable. For a buyer seeking a proven, uncomplicated dual cab ute with genuine work capability, this represents solid value in the $8,000 to $11,000 guide range.
