Both of the vehicles I spoke of were 90s.

IMO the prices of other advertised vehicles doesn't determine whether or not its a reasonable price to ask. They could all be unreasonable!
As for reversal, a couple of months back you couldn't get a puma under $45k and now there's quite a few that have gone through in the 30's and they're not exactly getting snatched up even then. A good example would be the 2013 110 w/~80k kms that's now advertised for $45k and hasn't sold despite being advertised for a while. Pretty decent buy and perhaps is further evidence towards my first point as there are plenty of 2013 models advertised for a lot more so I would argue that those ad prices are not reasonable by evidence. ;)
There has been a 110 at the Springwood dealer in the sales yard, for the last couple of weeks,looks brand new,if anyone is interested.
Don't know what they want for it.
We know that there have been plenty of late model 110s selling for $70k+ lately based on the first hand information shared in this thread. Everyone gets to make up their own mind about whether or not that's reasonable. When there are only seven 2015+ 110s available in the entire country though, the prices of what's available does come into play.
Of the 47 Puma (2007+) 110s currently for sale, only 14 are under $45k. 6 of those are two-door utes, the other 8 have between 115,000 and 200,000kms on the clock. Personally, I don't see much to choose from there nor do I see much to indicate that good cars are any cheaper now than they were.Quote:

This is a small market in a slow economy so cars will naturally sit around waiting for a buyer for a little while. We can scoff at some of the prices being asked, but it only takes one person with a checkbook to decide a price isn't silly :)
Something is only worth what someone is prepared to pay or what it would cost you to replace it, whether that is your home, a car or anything. I love Defenders and personally wouldn't pay these prices but I understand if you do.
Hi, just wanted to add, I'm a new Defender owner after researching and losing on many auction sites for over three years... any guesses
I recently "won" a Ex Gov Desert Rescue 1998 300Tdi with 19,000 k's on the clock. garaged one owner! In very New as Old Stock condition.
I'm a Inner Sydney Urban Cowboy, with a few thousand km's to clock up.
I'll post as the adventure continues...

2008 110 in as new condition with 139k. A few accessories. Dealer car so stat warranty. Qld. $34,500. Probably have them shave a grand or 2 odd that also although if you paid more than 30k it's probably too much. Cheers
I have just seen my old 2007 Defender 110 for sale. It has moved from Victoria to Queensland.
I was pleased to see that the owner has obviously looked after it. Also many other accessories added. It now has an additional 80,000km on it.
I hope the next custodian also looks after it.
