RattlesnakeBob Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I wonder if I can pick some brains on here ? I've been offered a very straight and very genuine ex army Landrover 90 ..I'm pretty sure it's a 1986 truck... The truck is unmarked and is MOT'd and has lovely tyres on and has had a very gentle life since being demobbed into civilian hands ...the chassis is more or less spotless , no dents or dings on the body and the interior and canvas are really clean and tidy ...she has a standard normally apirated 2.5 diesel in her ..absolutely nothing wrong from what I can see and as I said........ I happen to know she's had a very gentle life being nothing more than an occasional sunday afternoon vehicle and only really in the summer being garaged the rest of the time ...... So !.....I know a bit about Series Landrovers and am usually pretty confident about them ....but . I've trawled Milweb and eBay and other sites and am getting proper confused as to what she is worth and what I should bid on her ???......there seems to be a real variation in price of such vehicles... to give you an idea of what I reckon from my internet moochings?.....I have it in mind to bid somewhere between£2500 ....maybe up to £3000?? ....would I be right? or would I look a right minging toerag bidding that ? ............... or would the fella be leaping about in ectasy at how daft I am ? it's the old story ..the chap is a genuine bloke ..not a dealer and not really into selling at all but he will if the money is right as the truck is hardly ever used ..... If I get it right she'll be mine... but if he thinks I'm being cheeky he'll shut me off and I won't get a second chance to correct my bid so .........any advice gladly recieved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryo Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Paid £3200 for our 110 , I'd say between 3 and 4 is fair offers , bear in mind they stop making defender in the UK this year so prices will go up , if you do get it you need to get some security to stop it getting nicked as they are popular with thieves at the mo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
