81 = 2 door and good examples are getting hard to find...its only worth what someone is willing to pay tho
If its very very good, then 5 to 6k is reasonable in my books![]()
A bloke at work is selling a 1981 Range Rover Classic. It is has manual transmission, looks to be in good nick and has a few luxuries like six stacker CD, dealer fitted aircon as well as new shocks and is dual fuel.
He is after $6500 for it but I thought $5000 might be closer to the mark. I have had a look at various car sales web sites and there are alot of newer examples out there for less that look to be in reasonable nick (as best you can see from photos anyway).
I realise that answering this is a bit hard without seeing the car but does this price seem a bit steep even though it is in good nick? Can I finally use the phrase: Tell him he's dreaming?
Thanks in advance

It would want to be Mickey Mouse for that kind of money
Dual fuel makes it worth a bit more, as does the manual, but that is still one very expensive price tag.
Even with a whole bunch of extras I'd be thinking in the $3-$4K range.
if you paid $6500 and if you can get say 4 or 5 years without spending a cent on the mechanics of the rr and you sell it after 4 years how much would you loose as opposed to, if you bought a new rr and you sold it after 4 years how much would you loose ? so would it be worth buying![]()
As far as the motor trade is concerned it is the year model first that determines value and condition and accessories second and third. In the eyes of a dealer this is a near worthless 28 year old car that is worth whatever fat he has in his asking price to load a trade-in. Pretty well any dealer who would accept this as a trade-in would send it off to auction for whatever it would fetch.

Do you know how many k's its got. like everyone else it would have to be inmac condition for that sort of price.

Tell him he's dreaming.......For that money you could buy a '93.
I think $5000 for a really good 2 door is reasonable, $6500 it would have to be mint for an 81 model. But the question is do you really want an 81 two door? If I had $5-6500 to spend on a rangie for everyday use I would look for a later model.

$5000 would have been a good price for a 1981 Range Rover.....in 1981!!
$2k tops regardless of how good condition it's in.
