From that photo and just that tiny bit of info you gave, I think that's a very good price for it.  It looks very tidy and original looking, just the way I like it.  :D

In my opinion, I think you should just raise the asking price a little to around £1,500 for the vehicle, unless you need a quick sale.  :)

unfortunately mate unless someone is out there looking for one you may struggle to sell it. When i was selling my series 3 i tried at abowt £1000 but had no interest so i removed the mud tyres/ overdrive and parabolics and reverted back to standard. In the end i put it on Ebay and ended up only getting a few hundred quid for it.
Sorry for being the bearer of bad news & good luck with the sale

Hi Colin,

Try broadening your horizons with the sale market. I think it's a fair price, especially considering the overdrive which is worth £300 on it's own. Someone should be snapping your hand off!

I hate to say it, there are other forums for Landrovers also with for sale sections ;), should be quite easy to find them using a search engine. You'll probably need to register on each one, but hey ho, it's free!

If you get really stuck you could try autotrader, or even approaching a company that deals with Landrovers such as The Landrover Centre at Huddersfield, or any other dealers you may find advertising in various Landrover magazines such as Liveridge 4x4

Good luck!

Rob.

i only paid £590 for my 1979 series 3 about 2 weeks ago, that was with 11 months test and 6 months tax, and in very very good order.  as said previously i think its just wether someone wants one or not and is willing to pay the money for it.  its a shame, cos it looks lovely!
