garbaldy Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Not sure what the market for these are now as the seem to be priced all over the place, Anyone care to put a value on this pile of old shite I bought it with good intentions but decided to buy the hippo instead so this is now just sitting doing nothing it drives really well with a nice tight gear change, engine starts first time and runs really nice, it has chassis rust (don't they all) mainly back cross member, front driverside outrigger, and rear shock mount area, CGSB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollywobbler Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Gawd knows. Put it on Ebay and anything could happen. Probably at least a grand. It's essential that you put GR8 4 EXPORT somewhere in the heading and perhaps consider adding more chequer plate to improve its appeal.

Tayne Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Don't gorget the "One Life.." sticker. Or flog it to someone on here. I believe its GarethJ who wants one of these. nick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethj Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 That's true, I was looking for one for ages. But 2 weeks ago I found something else to waste my money on and I can't have 3 different cars within a month, the DVLA can't keep up. J registration means a 200 TDi (unless it's a petrol?) so ebay is the place. Lots of them go for £1200-£1800 although I see a huge number re-listed so the fuckwit quotient is high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 J registration means a 200 TDi (unless it's a petrol?) The TDi sticker on the side also hints towards it maybe perhaps having a TDi engine Banger Kenny, explosive-cabbage, Ohdearme and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Snap it up, if not too rusty. Before I bought the Red Rangey, which I lerrrrrrrrve, I was looking for a decent coil sprung Landy, preferably SWB, but found the prices of non rotters to be a bit daft. I love Series Landies, but have to admit that coil springs and the slightly more modern engines and slightly less rough interiors of the more recent ones do help a bit when it comes to actually living with the heaps. Old Landies basically rule, although I know Jack Shit about the TDi engine. Landies break a lot, but can be fixed a lot. They are impossibly fabulous as load luggers, mob of children and dogs carriers, and simply epic off road. They have a coolness all of their own, which just increases the more dented and scabby they become. The one in this thread, with a station wagon set-up and that mahoosive roof rack, would be a perfect vehicle for taking 87,000 people plus all their kit to a Festival, or going on hollies, or doing Paris-Dakar, or just for smoking about in.

Partridge Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Even if no-one wanted to buy it as a complete car, they’re still worth a lot for parts. Body shells, if they’re reasonable go for fairly good money. It’s an evergreen car, people will always want Defenders or parts for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 It's definitely* worth no more than £150. I'll give you £150 for it. Banger Kenny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakebullet Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Needs moar chequer plate to hide that the bottoms of the doors are turning to powder. If the bulkheads not shot to shit then should sell easily enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drum Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Does it have an mot? I would guesstimate between 1 and 2k depending on how rotten the chassis/bulkhead/doors are. Or you could sell it to the Americans. Or spend some time and money making it solid and a paint job and it will be easily mistaken for a new £35k 110 station wagon.

garbaldy Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 Thanks for all the replies, sounds like its worth 1 to 2k on a good day so of to auction she goes, I really don't want to stick it on the bay of evil as its full of piss takers though, if anyone wants a landy project then i would take anything as a trade apart from live stock that is I just want it gone as if i keep it for a long term project it will probably never be done and storage costs will eventually be more than its ever going to be worth.

Albert Ross Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Tell him you hope he can read a fucking map. Let him pay by Paypal, pocket the cash, and park it at the end of your drive with the keys in it. If it goes missing, it's his fault for being Turkish.

Station Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Are Shoguns/Pajero's and the like better than these overall? I know they're LR and that, and therefore have a loyal fan base, but realistically, which is the best 'overall', the equivalent Shogun to this or the LR?

HillmanImp Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Even if he is a scammer if its paid by paypal is there any way you can lose the money? Is the point of paypal not that they are taking the risk? Once they have accepted the funds and paid them to you, they are yours are they not? If it turns out (unlikely) that he is legit. you wil need to ensure that the buyer understands it needs to be collected by a certain date though or will be scrapped.

garbaldy Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 I thought that if you receive a payment through papal that the buyer can claim it back through the chargeback system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they're LR and that, and therefore have a loyal fan base, but realistically, which is the best 'overall', the equivalent Shogun to this or the LR? They've all got their plus points and problems. The big problem with Shoguns / Pajeros appears to be OMGHGF. But you'll see far more LRs being used in this country by off-roaders and farmers, so that suggests they're the better vehicle 'overall' for British conditions.
