To buy or not to buy....
smo:
Quite a lot, hardtops are basic commercial vehicles, where as a station wagon (in standard or county spec) commands a much higher value due to the increased market and demand.
africa-eko:
OK, so i can get a good hardtop (cheaper) and fit the back windows and seats then? :shock:
smo:
Yes, but beware of conversion costs, you need seats, windows, alpine lites, seatbelts etc. Also thought i loath the beurocratic crap bear in mind the new childseat/car seat law.
Also you might find the insurance does nasty nasty things with a conversion as opposed to a genuine SW.
africa-eko:
Thanks,its all down to cost really.
Anyone good to quote rough cost or a good place to ask for a quote for the conversion?
As it pans out, with 4k I can only afford c.1990-92 CSW, or 96-98 hardtop, and then get the money together for the conversion.
Decisions decisions!
:? :? :? :? :? :? :?

I would say that with Land Rovers, age is totally irrelevant, condition really dictates, if you can get an early CSW in good nick for the right price I would go for that pesonally.
