I bought a GUII 2000 model 3L about 18 months ago... For $10,500 totally stock o purchased this with the idea that when it went bang I would do an engine conversion. 70,000km later she is still going strong.... I have now done all the mods ( guages, blocked egr, catch can, etc... ) And I have had heaps of fun following the forum and doing the mods and in doing so I have learnt a lot about my car.
To me a 2001 model at $20k seems expensive and $29k for a 2003 seems a bit high as well.
You could buy a 98,99,2000 model 3L for less than 8-9k ( probably not running ) send it to Brunswick diesel and get a 6.5 V8 Chev diesel shoehorned in.
All up cost car and conversion under 30k. I know what I would be doing.
