I'd really like an Invincible. Can't comment on the price but it seems realistic. Go for it. I have the slightly older LC5 and it's a great machine. I suggest you insist on a 2009 sat nav DVD as it will probably only have the delivered 2007 one. Any LC that new will have pretty much any gremlins sorted and you will have remainder of Toyo 3 year warranty.

What he said ....

Just check everything works

Suspension up / down (rear only - front doesn't lift)
Centre Diff locks
Seats heat
mirrors retract
sunroof works properly
satnav disk current
CD magazine present in player
air filter clean
cabin air filter clean - hard to check, but put on aircon and check for musty smells - if absent should be ok
Aircon works!!  make sure you check this
Excessive noise from engine when cold (and they are a bit rattly)
excessive smoke on start up
alignment ok - let go steering, shouldn't wander dramatically if road flat
brakes good - should have new caliper seal design, but check braking
check bash plates under body, and side steps, for evidence of being trashed
there will be surface rust underneath - check it's not too bad
no obvious oil / grease leaks
check to see if there's a slight thump from the back on stopping - if there is, complain bitterly about a faulty diff (it probably isn't by complain anyway) - feels as though a bicycle has gone into the back of the vehicle when you stop...

May be worth scanning through this thread:

buying advice

Good luck!  Seems to be a pretty good price, I guess.

Cheers
