LAND ROVER COUNTY 110 WAGON ISUZU 3.9 DIESEL (eBay item 140532682249 end time 17-Apr-11 22:11:20 AEST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats

Price is probably what it is worth, just a case of timing if the buyer is out there...

The problem (as Rick said) is landrover doesn't build finished vehicles, but they build base that's ideal for customisation.

Driving a stock one is a bit like hanging an blank, still celophane wrapped, canvas on your walls for decoration.

Not when you compare it to one only recently sold, but someone might be willing to pay a premium !

yep that one was a good buy alright by the looks of it. Still, there are some (more than a few) willing to pay quite a bit money for lesser vehicles in lesser condition-
I'm thinking of those willing to pay larger dollars for the Td5 vehicles lol.
In my profession, we call this 'group-think'...

do we need to ask what 'your profession' is

Is that similar to the lemming suicide myth

not...Rather it's a situation in which a group of people hold a belief and selectively recognise (only) information consistent with that belief, screening out other information and sources not consistent with the primary belief. For example- 'my 110 extreme TD5 is powerful reliable and tough because it is fitted to the Land Rover 110 therefore it must be tough and strong and it's had a lot of work done to it'. Where this behaviour is discernable as a pattern amongst people, then it's called group-think. Sometimes, even the sheer weight of evidence is not sufficient to alter the belief. There is a great deal of research into this phenomena esp with regard to the operation of bureaucracies and company boards. A famous example is the Ford Motor Company board of executives at the time of the production of the 'Edsel' motor car. Group-think has a more well known cousin- known colloquially in Oz as 'brown-tongue'.
