An old Land Rover “better than money in the Bank” claims The Old Sod.

 

More than ever the current financial situation has emphasised the sound financial sense of owning an older Land Rover
For practical purposes depreciation has been absorbed by previous owners.

Sensible values mean you are not lumbered with high finance charges.

Routine repairs and maintenance can be tackled by enthusiastic owners. 

Plenty of locally based specialists can take on more serious work without the overheads of a main dealership’s workshop. 

Spare parts are available from a variety of sources so you are not paying a premium to a monopoly importer or  supplier.

While you burn more fuel per mile travelled, you can often get more  jobs done in fewer miles using a Land Rover. 
 

Lower values, age of vehicle, and good claims experience reduces the cost of insurance and road tax.  

 For many of the more common breakdowns reworked or overhauled assemblies  offer a cheaper alternative to buying new parts.

 

  Old Sodbury’s Land Rover Sortouts*offer a chance to turn surplus clutter around into the parts and accessories you need for your Land Rover

 

  Most Land Rover owners over the years accumulate a clutter of parts from donor vehicles, parts that have been removed during repairs and enhancements. With Land Rovers these bits could be just what your fellow enthusiasts could be  looking for even if they need overhauling before use..  By selling these at an Old Sodbury’s Sortout you can gain some space in the garage, workshop, or garden while at the same time turning the clutter into cash which you can spend with your fellow enthusiasts to  enhance your present project.Selling Hints   

 

   Unlike a Bank a Land Rover pays you back with interest every time you use it or work on it. 

  


  Sortouts are a good place to find plenty of willing buyers. They appreciate the chance to examine what is on offer before buying. There are enough knowledgable buyers about to assess the true value of what you are selling even if it needs restoration.


    The Old Sod has already set out some good reasons to hang on to your Land Rover. Even so  If  you considering selling your Land Rover  or something out of your vintage collection  why not combine a day out with letting plenty of potential customers see it for themselves.Speed Dating for Land Rovers


  Sortouts are a particularly good place to sell a modified or restored Land Rover.  Once it catches the eye of a potential customer you can show him or her the work you have carried out and the modification you have made.  These will set it apart from other Land Rovers the buyer may have considered.  Whether that will make your Land Rover more or less attractive to the buyer depends on what he regards as important. Even if he decides against your Land Rover you have not had another  wasted  day waiting in for a tyre kicker.  In a Sortout crowd there is likely to be a potential customer that would appreciate the work you have put into the Land Rover you are selling.

  Selling Hints.  Buyers will assume everthing on the trailer you bring is likely to be for sale. .  If you are selling the towing vehicle as well make it clear with a big "For Sale" sign..

If you can add details of what makes it special or unusual or has been repaired or overhauled that will help attract enquiries. Add a mobile phone number if you are likely to wander off so a potential buyer can call you to meet at the stall. More suggestions at Selling Hints
