Subaru will be pleased.

Silly silly me - I get so confused - I thought that "WRX" was the phase immediately before "wrecks". At least that is what happens with most of the WRX around here, they shortly become wrecks, often taking the lives of 4 young people with it.

Not since the Brumby were Subaru's regularly used on farms.

In fact 80" Landrovers are getting to be pretty scarce, and their value is certainly on the upward trend, and it is possible that this one IS worth that much. If it is, someone will pay that much for it!

Hi John,
I agree with you that what it cost to restore a vehicle is not a good basis for determining your asking price and that recovering all your costs is unlikely. I was not referring to your post at all as I always find your posts informative and no doubt very helpful to the posters asking for advice.
What I was referring to are the smart a**e one-liners spread throughout the threads rubbishing what someone's vehicle or items may be worth when they are not a prospective purchaser and generally don't have a clue about what real buyers are prepared to pay.
