fix the problems and ask 45k I bet youd sell it to some sucker.

[ECR]

Those issues at nothing compared to what most NAS 110s have these days.
If that truck was on my lot it would sell in a matter of weeks. 45K is well below the retail money if the miles are genuine.

[JimC]

This truck was well-bought at any of these prices, kudos to you Zimm. Its a great truck, hold out for your 60.

[chrisvonc]

You guys need to re-read the listing... His price is $60K... 47K is the mileage. LOL

[Stork17]

Damn! I was cutting a check out for 47K!!! LOL

[zimm]

You guys need to re-read the listing... His price is $60K... 47K is the mileage. LOLi think the first 2 posts got it right. the first one wanted me to sell it 45g, and ecr was commenting on the fact it would sell fast at 45g... and im sure it would... then that guy would turn around and sell it for more.

the mileage checks out. i live in pa, im the second owner, and the truck has never left pa, and always garaged. the truck is allll that, and more.



for my personality, or lack thereof, id be better putting it on consignment at a high end shop, but the always cheaper board frequenters (of which i am one), asked for first crack when i fell on this. so heres your crack. count your quarters and make an offer. the price is always lowest after happy hour on friday. like i said, the worst ill say is no. but keep in mind, this isnt a going out of business sale. i can wait out the economy.... i just WONT drive this rig on salty roads, and the salt hit the ground last week. there are other toys i want, but im out of space. i may just as well sell it to someone since thats the case.

and for the pussy whipped, its always easier to beg forgiveness, than to ask for permission.

for now i put it up here, expedition portal, and mud (just for the shitball comments the cruiser guys will make :-). )

oh yea.


partial trades considered, in case youre looking to "move up" to an NAS110. 90's with extensive off road modifications welcome. something i can run the stink out of and not care. the word diesel causes my ears to perk up, too.

[ollieskins]

$45k is a good deal. I don't think it will take long to sell.

[ECR]

He is asking $60,000.
The miles are 45K

If he'd take 45K I would have sent him a check already. :)

[zimm]

did i write this polish? why does everyone think i want 45k dollars? it says MILES after the 45k.


wheres your counter offer, ecr? :-)

Wishful thinking maybe?

I'll let you beat your head against the wall with the tire kickers for a while and then we'll talk. :) :)

what numbah??? (out of 500)

[cgalpin]

This will be a record earning on a flip (almost at any price) :)

I hear ya. I had a guy wanting more pictures of my BMW last week, but I already put it in the corner of the garage and put the cover on it and plugged in the battery tender thingy... can't be bothered to get it out again.

[ollieskins]

Man, 45K is a good price for this vehicle.

[JimC]

I edited the ad.

I edited the ad.
now this IS funny! thanks!

[minorthreat]

That's a really nice truck, especially since it only has $60,000 miles.

I think this is like the guy on SNL that used to do the subliminal talking in order to get you to sell at 45.
"That is a really nice truck (45K) and I hope you sell it (45K)".

[zimm]

That's a really nice truck, especially since it only has $60,000 miles.HA! your efforts to confuse are puny compared to the power of mod. he has wiped clean all confusion with his godlike keyboard and old testament bold lettering. you are truly a minorthreat, indeed. begone before you are smited.

[globallandrovers]

put anothe 1000 miles on her and then they'd think the price had gone up, great looking truck well worth the $60,000 you are asking

The corollary:
If he lowers the price is that an odometer discrepancy?

[globallandrovers]

hehehehe

[zimm]

i think theres a law against rolling back the priceometer.

[zimm]

im 90% certain the slack is the output gear in the tcase. gonna have it rebuilt.

[130Tdi]

the slack is most likely in the rear axle shaft to drive flange splines. Replacing the cast iron drive flanges usually fix's the problem. This is a known and common problem with Salisburys. Check that before you spend big bucks. Its a relatively cheap/fast/easy fix.

[zimm]

thanks.

tough to sell a clean rig these days.

[cgalpin]

I'm guessing the price has something to do with it. Bet it would sell in an instant at the price you paid or with a small markup for your time. I'll give you what you have invested plus 10%, hows that sound? :grin

I'll give you what you have invested plus 10%, hows that sound?The problem with selling a $60K specialty car right now is the economy. There's more NAS 110's on the market than I've seen in years. Mine was for sale at a high-end dealer for six months without selling (a couple takers, but flaked out) and I just gave up and said, "Screw it." I'm keeping it. It's not like I wanted to sell it anyways.

The bottom line is that alot of these 110's are not used as everyday drivers and when the economy went south, the car being kept at the beachouse (or for 4x4 use) is the first to go.

Good luck in your sale.

[MC22958]

Regardless of what we think our stuff is worth the market sets the price. Today the price you are asking, for your NAS 110, is more than anybody wants to pay. Tomorrow, most probably, will be a different story.

Thanks Zimm!

[Lindy]

Now you can get that Hummer you've been eye-ballin'

[zimm]

im thinking of going g-wagon, since any toyota 7x series troopy you find here is a beat piece of shit. im just not sure the path i want to take. i like the simpler early 460-461's, especially a 461 diesel. im just having a hard time with the price on them. as more of the MBUSA g500s find their way out of the mall mom garages.... prices are gonna drop. im bettin about 15% a year. that green one here, the guy wants 30g. you can get one that 10 years newer, with real horsepower (gasser), same mileage for 26g. youre stuck with a nav screen and all the cushy bling... but maybe that aint so bad. i like trucks that feel like trucks... like a defender.

im gonna miss the 110. im sad already. its got a cool factor like no other 4x4xfar.... i just dont fit, and i didnt have the heart to take it off road!

we'll see what i end up with. maybe ill just go back to beating on an fj60. theyre fucking disposable.

[Jon_Winningham]

Having grown up around GD300s I can tell you they are one hell of a truck. My granddad had an MB truck dealership in Dallas in the 70s and early 80s, and would import Gs for himself (grey market). We owned an '04 G500 until last year. If you go the G route avoid the late 2000 model, and all of the '01, '02 and '03s. 2004 and up is better. Here is a link to what I call the G-Wagon Source (http://www.benzworld.org/forums/g-class/)
I like the Defenders better because, hell I have no idea! I have always called the G-Wagon a Defender with all the BS worked out of it.

[rover26c]

Jon, what do you think of the 2005 MB G500 Grand Edition?

[Jon_Winningham]

Jon, what do you think of the 2005 MB G500 Grand Edition?

the 2005 G500s are considered even better than the 2004s
the Grand Edition (2005 only) simply had a badge on the front quarter panel, and I think they (Chrysel/MB) were talking about discontinuing the G brand soon after 2005.

[Devin W]

Zimm, I went from an NAS 110 to a G500 ('03) almost 2 years ago. Emotionally, I miss the 110 dearly (although it went to a really great home :thumbs) and I'll likely have another Defender at some point when I won't need to rely on it as my daily transportation ** -- which is probably why I still lurk around this forum.

The worst thing about the G is the MB badge. Other than that, it has been the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned, especially when I really can only have one vehicle to cover my daily driving duties as well as the recreational off-road excursions. The most vulnerable and notorious point in terms of creature comforts are the weak window regulators, which are expensive and challenging to replace, so an extended warranty is a good idea if only for that one issue. I've driven it about 12K mi/yr and taken it to some of the same spots that I challenged the 110 with successfully (the only modification being larger, more aggressive tires).

BTW, that's a cool factoid: the transmission computer and dash computer both have a factory setting that will allow calibration for 32" tires so that your speed, odo, and shift points are accurate (as well as ETC).

I had heard the same recommendations on model years that Jon suggested, and I was confident that with proper service and warranty campaigns resolved by prior owners that I wouldn't be plagued by the same gremlins and so far all has been well.

So, I'm not trying to sell G's to LR enthusiasts (I'm a fan of both), but thought I might be able to offer a little feedback since you indicated that might be a direction you're considering.

Another site to check out is Pointed Three (http://www.pointedthree.com/disc/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=57&setcookie=1&DisplayType=Flat)

** I know a Defender is a capable daily driver, but after using them as such for 7 years my priorities changed and I wanted to spend the same time I put into my Defenders into other things. It has taken me a long time to get out of the habit of carrying 100 lbs of tools with me everywhere I go.

its officially off to a new home....:(


ok...

next project!

[JJB622]

Here it is at ECR: http://eastcoastrover.com/231.html. A true time-warp truck.

[Rocketman]

Jimmy,

Will you be he one taking it to Nantucket? If so, we should meet up. We have an Arles Blue 95 SW there. Just picked up a 110 that we will be cleaning up for the next year and then taking it there.

Scott

[JJB622]

No unfortunately I'm not the lucky owner. Just thought it was interesting tracking the progress of the truck. Must be fun rovering around Nantucket.

[Rocketman]

Yes. It is a Land Rover Mecca. At any one time in the Summer there are between 10-15 110's on the island. Tons of D-90s, Discos, etc. Our 95 has been there since 2001 with a short trip back to AZ last year for some refurb. With permits they allow you to beach drive. We go to Great Point (about 5 miles of beach driving each way). You'll see everything from completely restored Series 1 and II to the D-90 that looks like it has been sitting in salt water for ten years.

I am becoming an expert on corrosion prevention (both cars and houses) by frequenting the places. The D-90 is in like new condition after years of treating areas with Boeshield and the undercarriage with spray-on wax. Last year during the refurb in AZ we did waxoyl it. My goal for the 110 is to have it in good shape and after about 5 years on the island have a new chassis and bulkhead put on it by one of the east coast refurb shops.

[Jon_Winningham]

off topic, but it looks like this thread has already been hijacked...


Scott,
by chance were you driving a NAS D110 in Tucson this past Christmas by the airport?

[Rocketman]

Not I. I just got my 110 four weeks ago. I live in the Phoenix area. Must say, I do not see many 110's in town. There are several 90s. I have to say I see more Defenders on the 14 square mile Nantucket Island in a day than I see in a month in Phoenix. Bought my 110 from a snowbird locally but the truck was in the midwest. It was in good condition with 34K miles. The only big issues were the mid west and New York salted roads.

[Jon_Winningham]

I spent a week in Tucson and only saw one Defender, a NAS D110.
Was a little disappointed to say the least, but the D110 made up for it.
