Evening All, I have a 60 series turbo diesel Landcruiser '86 which I am considering selling. The problem is as it has all the fruit on it I am having trouble working out a price. The other problem is the Km on the clock (500K) even though the motor is tight and strong. The fruit includes Bull Bar, IPF spotties, IPF headlight inserts and wiring, duel batteries (both less than 6 months old) Snorkel, BFG A/T 33" 95% tread, FM & AM CB, Codan 7727 HF. ARB Air Locker, Alloy Roofrake with bag. Rear storage unit with Trailblazer 42 litre Fridge Freezer, Rear wheel carrier, Long Range tank. Minimal Rust as it has a electronic rust protector (and I had some cut out!)
With the wealth of experience on this forum, could I get some suggestions of price I should ask. I have looked in the papers but there is nothing that has all the gear on to get a comparison.

Thanks in Advance

Mark

The problem with selling any 4WD is that in the standard market accessories make bugger all difference prices wise they are merely sweeteners.

So you will be hanging out for a 4Wdere that is after a well-set up solid 4by, as you say k’s are the main problem 500,000 on any car/4WD engine is a lot I suspect this will be you main problem and what the buyer will youse to haggle you down.

I think Davoe is on the right track price wise, But you could be waiting a wile

Hi Mark, we got 12 for our 87 model with 375k on it, new tyres, brakes, shocks, std model good condition about 3 years ago. The dealers offered us 7, tops. The sad part is they are never worth what you think, and you wonder if you should hang on to it as a safe car for the kids; I'm sorry we didn't. Nige.

Hi Mark,

If you are really considering selling your vehicle and can't get what you want for it, try taking things off it like the lights, roofrack,radios etc and selling them seperatly on ebay for example. You may make more doing this and selling your vehicle with just a few extras. In my experience, one has never got back what all the extras are worth. So when I sold my old 84' 4by ute, I stripped everything off it and still got $3585.00 for an old rust bucket that was only worth $1500.00 at the wreckers. Made an extra $900.00 on ebay by selling the extras as my replacment vehicle already had everything on it.

Good luck on what you decide.
