Hate to burst your bubble but finding a second hand Rubi is not as simple as you think..just take a look at car sales Rubi v's Sport av amounts. And the JK's have now been around for a few years.
Sure you will be able to find a 2nd hand one but how long will it take you to find the right combo you want???

I have also not seen a Rubi in bling bling gear at all? Maybe not going to the right places.????
I have seen a crap load of sports done up in bling and 20 inch rims etc...

A few weeks ago when we put our order in for a Rubi I asked the sales guy how many he sells and he said maybe 1 for every 300 sports. He said people just won't spend the extra for a Rubi.
True or not that's what he said.

I went to Melbourne to buy my Rubicon cause the asking prices in Sydney were at least 2-3k more and they had higher km's.

No bubbles burst here. I know they will be scarce and sought after. Not really worried how long its going to take to find the right one. Not real worried what state it comes from either. Gonna do it once and do it right if it takes 6-12 months+

Heh. It prob just means I'm going to all the 'wrong' places - although, this is from what I've seen driving to and from work in the city (Melbourne). Admittedly I see more decked out (appropriately) Rubicons than blinged out Rubicons.
