2004 Ford Explorer UZ Wagon - Silver - 302,151km - 4.0L V6 Petrol, 5-Speed Automatic, All-Wheel Drive
Overview
The Ford Explorer has long been a cornerstone of the mid-size SUV market, and this 2004 UZ-series wagon represents a mature, practical example of the breed. Built during the Explorer's fourth generation, this model combines genuine all-wheel-drive capability with a spacious seven-seat wagon body, making it equally at home on suburban school runs or light off-road exploration. The UZ series refined the Explorer formula with improved interior ergonomics and a more contemporary design language than its predecessors. At 302,151 kilometres, this example has covered genuine distance but presents as a solid, usable family vehicle with no major structural concerns evident from the photographic record.
The silver metallic paint presents with good depth and gloss across all visible panels. The wagon body shows straight panel lines with no obvious dents, creases, or impact damage. Trim and badging are intact. The alloy wheels are present and serviceable, with tyres showing usable tread depth. Interior trim is complete, with all door cards, handles, and switches present and functional. The cabin shows the expected wear consistent with age and kilometres—the steering wheel leather shows light patina, and general dust accumulation is visible, but no tears, cracks, or major deterioration of upholstery or dashboard components are evident from the photographs.
At a market guide of approximately $4,500 to $6,500 for this specification and mileage, this Explorer offers genuine all-wheel-drive practicality and seven-seat versatility at an accessible price point. The 4.0-litre naturally aspirated V6 paired with the five-speed automatic is a proven, reliable combination that prioritises durability over performance—exactly what buyers of this era and class expect. For families seeking a spacious, capable wagon with genuine off-road credentials and no modern complexity, this represents solid value.
Condition
The exterior presents well. Silver metallic paint holds good gloss across all panels with minor stone chipping visible on the bonnet leading edge—typical of a vehicle with this mileage. Panel gaps are even and consistent. The wagon body shows no signs of accident repair or panel replacement. Trim is complete and secure. Wheels are clean and present well; no significant kerb rash is evident. Tyres appear to have usable tread remaining.
Interior condition is consistent with the vehicle's age and kilometres. Seats show light wear on bolsters and piping; no tears or major deterioration is visible. The steering wheel leather shows patina from use. Dashboard is intact with no cracks visible in the photographs. All switches, controls, and trim pieces are present. The cabin shows general dust accumulation typical of a vehicle of this age, but no water damage, mould, or structural deterioration is evident. Climate control and infotainment systems are present and appear complete, though functionality cannot be confirmed from photographs alone.
Engine bay is clean and well-maintained. The 4.0L V6 shows no obvious fluid leaks, corrosion, or modification. Battery is present and appears serviceable. All hoses and connections are intact. No warning lights are illuminated beyond the tyre pressure indicator (standard for ignition-on odometer photography).
