    US prices for series Landies

    Gday All,

    Has anyone seen the prices they are paying for series, even RHD, models lately.I always knew they paid a far bit due to rather rarity but at those prices might be worth loading a few containers.

    cheers
    Paul

    Problem is that import of Series Landrovers after about 1970- something is illegal. Hence the high prices.

    They must be over 25 years old. A guy from south carolina wanted to buy my 1988 110, problem was he wanted a reciept to say it was a 1977 one!

    This sounds a fair price to me!...................... http://www.copleymotorcars.com/nas_d...3.1vo1325.html

    I don't think it is 25 years, I think it is a specific date - from your information sounds like 1977. It is related to meeting US design rules regarding things as diverse as air pollution, fuel economy, and area wiped by the windscreen wipers.

    It was in 2002, he told me (he is a dealer who imports them from NZ) that it was 25 years for protection of the US motor industry. The yanks are waiting for next year to be able to import 1983 110's

    Or the other way to do it is to take the engine & gearbox out & import it as a kit car...

    You'd obviously have to source a replacement engine and gearbox but wouldn't it be a co-incidence if one happened to come into the country in the same container??
