how much?

my missus has given me an ultimatum so my landy has to go,i'd rather not put it on ebay and deal with loads of stupid questions.what do you reckon it's worth as there is a bloke round the corner interested in it,i have a sum in mind but would like it confirmed.it's a non-runner at present and has no mot,it's a 1971 series 3 109 3 door with small side windows,chassis is good,rebuilt rover p5b v8 with lumenition ignition system and su carbs,recon starter motor,kenlowe fan,new radiator,rebuilt gearbox and transfer box,free wheeling hubs,solid bulkhead and new footwells,new front mudshields and steering box cover,new steering relay.i found some old brake shoes and brake cylinders in the back so i assume they have been done but haven't checked,i have most of the dash but some bits are missing,heater was fubar but i have an arctic heater to go in it,it has wolf doortops.any fasteners i removed were relaced with new and copaslipped.needs rewiring but i have a loom,needs new seats but i have some seat cushions for front and rear in the shed which i'll chuck in,haynes manual,genuine land rover manual,v8 supplement manual,i have all the keys but not the v5 because i couldn't be arsed to apply for it!,needs someone with a less grumpy missus than mine to finish it.it's not covered in dents but it isn't pretty either.i'm not sure about the tyres passing a mot and the front springs are a bit iffy,there's a steering guard in the back which i didn't fit.what do you reckon?if you see any missing parts it's because they are in the back.it's looking a bit tatty but nothing smoothrite can't sort!

ditch the bitch, keep the landy
sorted!

offer to help her with her cases

wish it was that simple!,i just put a new kitchen in for her as well the ungrateful cow!

stand up fer yerself or you'll be a doormat for the entire relationship.......buck lend im yer big gun

perhaps i should just get me mate lee enfield to sort her!

think you'd be lucky to get 400 quid for it

you gave her a new kitchen and she still wont let you keep it!!!? sell her instead and keep it!!!! or buy a shed somewhere and put it in there?

sounds like it a waste of a good cartidge to me !:whoosh:

She might be jealous if you're spending more time fiddling with your Land-Rover's undercarriage than her's

think i'll have an affair,she might forget about the landy then!

Would ya consider selling it for spares?

if you mean will i break it then the answer is no,i've got too much crap on my drive as it is.

Is that her main gripe then?

most of the stuff on the drive is ongoing projects,i think she gets ****ed off with me dedicating time to them,she really does have a bee in her bonnet about the landy though so in the interests of harmony it has to go.she can **** off if she thinks she's getting a new bathroom now though!

****in right! What about telling her that the new kitchen comes out if the Landy goes.

i'm quite fond of my testes!

lol looks now do a need another petrol swallowing series 3 looks out the window at the other 2 lwb ones and the tractor n think well rearlly i do but the others need more work first n its ww3 already so dnt think another one will difuse it another one on the other hand would be nice

In its non running non MOT crap rubber 300 to 500 .
Running with a MOT and good rubber 1200 to 1500.
Tip top condition around 2200 to 2700
so if you can get it going for another 400 then its worth doing.

Tell her it would have been finished cept you had to do the Kitchen.

If you have to get shot then see if the orphanage wants it.

i think that top condition is a bit steep with the market although i have seen them going at that price but not recently
