Hi all
Just having a debate with a mate about what multivalve factory turbo 80 seris in good condition are selling for!

I would like to hear your thoughts without me pre-empting any value.

There is one up the road from me, saw it on the weekend. Its a 96 model multivalve manual GXL for $18,000,00 had bullbar, snorkel BUT no service history, under 200k and was a bit rough, something I wouldnt buy. They are very rare especially in auto most people hanging onto them. Redbook gives them a low value but I have seen them (as usual after getting my prado) well into the 20k mark, saw one sahara with reasonable kms for just on 30k. Personally I think they are one of the best cruisers they made and wouldnt hesitate in having one. Great off road like the patrols, the T/D in auto personally I think the best, good power,torque, and will give you in the 10L per 100 on the open roads. So over the 20 mark for a good one ...........WHG

Big difference between 1994 (last of the 12valve 1HD-T) and the 1995-98 (24 valve TD 1HD-FT). The former was the one with the reputation for big end bearing failures; the latter will go down in LandCruiser history as one of the best models ever.

Sorry guys should have stated that. I know the multivalve wasnt untill 95 but was just showing what people still want for the earlier ones and the redbook prices are know where near what people are selling them for. For eg from above "Private Price Guide $11,800 - $14,300 for a multivalve GXL 97 cruiser, find me one for that price (if you can find one) and Id buy it straight away. Not sure how redbook work out there prices ??.........WHG

Wherehegone you are absolutely correct about the red book prices - they are completley useless as a guide to old landcruisers. they vary greatly in condition, Kms travelled and accessories. The red book is no guide at all. I just sold my 60 series Sahara for $12,000 because it was in very good condition and was exactly what the buyer wanted.

GN, If you find a good version of the model you want then Id pay a price well above what the red book says. Just as the last of the 60 series in many cases are now selling for more than the early 80 series - dont worry about paying more for the last of the 80 series than you would pay for an early 100 series. It appears the end of the model run always turns out to be an exceptional vehicle. For example there was a late 1997 Sahara Turbo diesel with low Kms that sold for over $30,000. A very good buy if that was the exact model you wanted.

What Im saying is if its the model you want and in good condition - who cares if its more that some other more recent model.

Cheers,
GPM

Hi mate, the mutivalves hold there value well (as you probably know) and are not usually on the market for too long. I bought my 97 TD 80 series 6 months ago for more than $25000. It had logbook history and 270k on the clock. I probably paid a few grand too much, but it was a five speed, was the colour i wanted, was in mint condition and had a few extras bolted on. I had to have it so i did the deal and have not regretted it. The fuel economy is outstanding, even running 33" tyres like i do now.

For an example in good condition i would expect to pay $20000 and upwards. They were only built with the 1HD-FT between 95 and 97 so they are not exactly a dime a dozen, hence they still command a high price.

Worth finding a good one though...in my heavily biased opinion!!

Hi Falco80

So how many $ of extras would you say you got with it?
I kind of recon you can only allow 33% of the cost of extras to be added to the price of the actual vehical. And that is if they are extras you actualy want / need!

Hi G N, The extras i got were probably only worth around $2500 if you were to go out and buy them yourself. Not much at all really, but i'd rather buy a fourby that is as stock as i can find. Your right about the extras. They are never worth as much when you are selling a vehicle. It's best to take them off and add them to your next car or sell them seperately.

Prices lately have dropped a little as more have come into the market, but you still need to look hard for a multivalve. There is one on lcool.org with high kms but i can vouch for it as being well looked after, plus has many accessories...i own a 95 hdft sahara and love it. cheapest seen is 17.5k most is 30k+ which is 100 series price.....but hey, the hdj80 is still the pick of the outback tourer.
