I need to fit a Cat S5 tracker to the camper as soon as it gets off the boat and gets its MOT / UK plates.... who does everyone recommend for the new Cat S5 trackers...? Both which tracker and which companies you recommend to fit (Yorkshire / Midlands)...?
So…. Bringing it home. The market here is just not strong enough and we would lose £30-40k….. here’s the challenge.

I am £70k in total spend in the last 9 months including the 34k miles 2012 Puma 110.

I would love views as to how much it maybe should be worth in the UK market today…

Will post the current list / photos etc and you guys can help…
 

Here we go, gives an idea of the “stupid” level of investment I’m facing. Would love views on where this could sit ball park in Uk market today… I have zero idea been away for a decade!
It doesn’t really matter what you have spent on it in my opinion. It’s what someone is willing to pay. Your vehicle is amazing and will be very desirable, to a niche market !! Someone planning an overland adventure with loads of money might just pay what you want, who knows.

Totally agree with every point and same as here. Just trying to get a flavour of uk prices compared to Kenya

It’s a hard one to answer I think. There are people who “have always wanted a Defender” who will pay a lot of money for a shiny one with big wheels and lots of add ons and looks tough. But with no clue what they’re looking at and find out too late it’s got a rotten chassis and bulkhead. There are hundreds of people up and down the country catering for this uneducated market and selling crap. Are there any overland companies in Kenya, or anywhere else in Africa who are looking for LR’s like this already prepared for their clients ?? I would think there’s a larger market there than here for this vehicle.

Sounded a bit derogatory to be honest with underlyong suggestion of big wheel and “looks tough” but no substance.

I won’t use the same judgement and suggest you are “just pootling down to Waitrose”
In yours as I don’t know you from Adam.

I built this thing, it’s a new car. Didn’t appreciate the tone or suggestion that I’d be robbing someone with a load of money who was a bit stupid or uneducated.

Yes there’s a world of overland here hence been trying to move it here. All I was asking was the market but at this moment what I’d like to do is delete my question :)

No stress gang.
