Landy Prices
Hey All,
I could be wrong, but haven't we seen all this before with other models of Land-Rover? I seem to remember County prices dropping like a stone at a certain point then stabilising at about what they are realistically worth. The D1 did the same.
Rangies certainly do this, perhaps a little faster than the other models...:wasntme:
I'm a D2 owner and not about to sell, but I bought the car 5 years ago knowing I would never get even 1/2 of what I paid this far down the track.
I think the lesson with Landies is to either get in and out quickly if you want to minimise loss (and keep buying fairly new ones) - or buy the car you want and keep it until it dies (or keeping adding accessories until it collapses under its own weight!)...
The main thing is that we buy these trucks because we love 'em - only a goose would buy one thinking it was an investment! Christ, look at the price a fully restored series brings - you cant even buy the parts for that sort of money. Nup, better to buy the one you want and enjoy the hell out of it - thats my theory, money be damned (within reason of course)!
Just my .02, adjusted for inflation.
Adam
