Outer Limits 4x4 Board

What's my 80 worth? I've got a '96 80 series with 312000k's. HZJ80 Standard. Good nick, usual paint marks and chips. Has dent FR guard where it clipped the shed door - not too ugly.

Extra's: Safari Snorkel, 3" OME susp, Alloy bbar, High mount winch, dual batt, 265/75/16 Good year Wranglers (60%), "Off Road" alloy roof rack, Cargo barrier, custom rear drawer system (2 x alloy rolling drawers and Engel brand fridge slide), UHF and Pioneer sterio.

Red book says $8,000 - $10,200 - I want more. Do I value the extra's and add? I was thinking up to 15?

Interested in your thoughts - cheers!

If it was a GXL it would be worth closer to 15. But a standard isnt worth as much. Id pull all the bits off and sell them seperately.

12ish if u are in WA.

10,000

$9500-$10000

diesels down my way are getting real hard to find if theres no rust. Youd be looking at 11000-12000 down here

$9,000.

but if you want to get rid of that highmount let me know

I tihnk redbook is on the money. It might get that much because it's a 96 model, however the kays will deter people. It will want to be in tip top shape mechanically to sell it at 10k

Accessories don't add much in the way of value. I would put it back to stock and either keep the accessories for the next truck or sell them.

If you want top dollar you will have to go over it with a fine tooth comb and fix all the little common problems, because that's what a serious looker will do, if they are willing to part with that much money. Including that ding in the fender.
When it's in top condition advertise it on car sales, people will travel across the country for a proper decent truck.

Also consider that few people buy 4wds as a main vehicle these days, even diesel ones because of fuel and living costs. So people are more likely to pay 5-6k for a poor condition truck and then take it out on the weekends flogging it no worrying about breaking it or how scratched it gets.

Remember that 4wd buyers are more clued up then the average motor buyer. They won't pay much more than redbook/insurance value unless it's in mint condition. You can't slap 15g on a 10g truck and expect some clueless yob to come along and throw cash at you.

fwiw i recently sold a 91 gxl for 6800. Had it on the market for 6 months.

I sold my other 80 series (94 petrol gxl, new paint, bullbar, sidesteps part time kit, etc etc) for $12 000 5 months ago and that was max I could get for it...
