30k GBP is $46k (ish) USD at todays exchange which is well under what you buy one of those here for (if you could find one). Being an 84 and over 25 years old I think you could get it titled just about anywhere in the USA as well.

If I only was a wealthy man......

One word ruined it for me - RESTORED. Notice no dents - the patina was not preserved. The historical significance for me is diminished. Nice enough truck though.

I don't know, he makes it sound like Land Rover did the restoration on it..if thats the case I would be fine with it...if not...like you said...diminished.

Yowsers.:Wow1: 8500 original miles... full history... what a gem.
Although, I almost feel bad that it has barely been driven since the event.

That's the bad part of having a CT110-with the very detailed histories of these Rovers and the real and potential values associated it's often best to not risk it by driving much, if at all. I was lucky to check one out in person complete with all damage from the event (Mongolia) down to dirt on the floor! There was some surface rust on one of the creased dents that I asked about, the owner said he'd love to clean that up but he couldn't because it had been documented. I thought it was cool how the build by the special vehicles section wasn't all that different than the builds I've seen here-in fact many are better. That CT110 was a forward support vehicle for the Disco's that were used in the actual competition but even it was untouchable in a way. It would be fun to get a 110 from the era and build up a replica that you could use without fear of killing your investment. i guess it's like having a vintage Ferrari in a way, when the money at risk is more than your first house it makes you a little nervous.

Since this one has been repainted and the engine either rebuilt or replaced(not very clear) the value is diminished. I'm also dubious of the restoration listed, first the seller says it was done by the factory after the event but then he mentions it in relation to the re-spray in 2007. That would further diminish the value a lot which maybe why it's listed for 30k GBP and not 100k GBP.

that truck is itching to be driven extremely hard. parts is parts to me. I never saw the value in buying something if you're just going to have it collect dust in a garage somewhere.

a real turn-key rig for someone. take off the stickers, gas up the tank and get it back down to the mud where it belongs to make your own patina :smiley_drive:

Thats a lot of money in general camel trophy vehicles are worth £18k to £25k, no more.

for 30k, you can buy a D1 or RRC and have essentially the same truck with 10" better wheelbase, and a boatload of goodies. but don't tell those Defender guys in the US ... :elkgrin::elkgrin::elkgrin:
