    D2 GONE AT GREAT FINANCIAL LOSS

    My 2000 d2 7 seater finally drove out the gate yesterday.Still remember the first time i saw it,first words were"Oh yeah!"Paid $27.000 for it to replace my P38.After 6 or so years and lots spent,had to let it go for $4.500Is still a nice vehicle,has a surging issue and a drip from the oil cooler,but still good.D2's seem to have dropped through the floor as far as value goes.Some d1's are dearer.

    Trying to insure a D2 for a reasonable price is just as hard...

    discos/land rovers are cheap because they have a bad reputation for reliability.

    whether or not that reputation is deserved or not is debatable.

    I was looking at a D2a HSE Td5 about a year ago. Under 300,000km on the clock. They were asking $26,000.
    It could have been mine for $20,000.
    I was too late. It sold.

    I think it is difficult to shift all cars at the moment. No one is buying.

    Now you would be lucky to get $12,000,probably less.Nice as the d2 was,my old p38 was much nicer to drive,and my L322 nicer again.

    $12 K ????

    You're dreamin..... There are better bargains out there.
    I picked up a 99 TD5, 7seater, with ACE and 139K km about 4 or so years ago for under $13K. I have done well with the money I saved on the purchase price.
    Spent the money I saved on upgrades. Be a little bit thrifty and you will be amazed at the bargains you can get. Yes I have done some work on the vehicle($), but that's because I can.
    Oil leaks??? Show me a LR with out one!!!
    I had to travel to the middle of NSW from Melbourne on a 43 degree day to purchase my vehicle, but damn, I'm happy with what I've got.
    You make your choices in life. If you don't like the outcome, don't ******. You made the decision....

    Cheers,

    Jason

    It's urgent sales that drop the values. Desperation equals stupidly low car prices.

    I bought my v8 new 12 years ago...but it doesn't owe me anything. She has given me great joy and I still love jumping in and driving her after getting out of newer and arguably more high end vehicles.

    Cheers
