Thread: Prices all over the place for Disco 2

D1s and D2s alike, prices are everywhere. Son picked up a D1 300TDI, good nick $3000, around the same time someone was trying to sell a slightly older one with a rather solid hit on the right-hand rear corner for $7500

Prices on all cars are still all over the place. Covid pricing is over. 10 year old cars are no longer worth more than they were new. Some people aren't ready to accept this quite yet. Defenders are a good example where the older ones went from being $15k cars, to $30k cars all of a sudden. There are still heaps advertised for long times at $25k+ and a few at more reasonable prices that seem to actually sell.

I haven't been looking at the prices or Discos too much, but I did just buy a manual D1 with almost no rust for $1500. It wasn't drivable though (blown headgasket).

I just gave my D1 away. Lots of good parts and good engine, transmission etc. I like the D1 but prefer the lad get a D2 out of the 2. Actually I prefer he gets a Pajero and he probably will but if the D2's come back down to where they should be given their particular 'requirements' I would probably be happy to see him in one - provided a get a chance to do some basic troubleshooting (preventative maintenance such as re-sealing around windscreen etc) before he left.
