Sounds like a potentially expensive fix. Is it?

 

[Haf-E]

Is it really painted pink like in the photo???

could be dirt simple....or hugely expensive. No way to tell without an onsite inspection, and even then.....

 

[justfred]

It's a Unimog - who needs to go in reverse???

I'm guessing that is suppose to be Orange. It's looks like its just really faded to me. Probubly spent all its time outside and never waxed.

It's more orange than pink. I live a mile from the Bob Cat/Uhaul dealer and would be happy to assist with information if anyone is really interested

35k miles on this thing, with this type of equipment, is extremely high. It has been worked super hard I imagine. It's like 350,000 miles on a normal vehicle. I wouldn't touch it with a 40 foot pole. Looks like it didn't even sell at auction (reserve not met).

"Looks like it didn't even sell at auction (reserve not met)."
not much sold at that auction; it's Juneau, no roads in and only 32000 people.

I suspect this is one of those cases where the seller has very misplaced expectations of the value of the vehicle.
