Default How much did you pay for your Disco?

Forgive me if there's a similar thread already on here, but if not I was curious about the valuation of these trucks (not selling mine anytime soon just curious).

I traded for mine so I can't kick off the thread with a number, I "paid" a 1998 Volvo

I payed $400 for mine. Fluid change and fuel pump it was back on the road. Thousands later it's way more fun!

I paid a 98 Nissan maxima. I got the maxima for 2k. But it was valued at 2500 in 2011 when I traded.

1800, later found out it had no t-stat and only water in the rad. The diff lock was stuck and engaged. It had a bad hg. All the windows, lights and both moon roofs worked. Should have paid less, but oh well.

$2500 for the first one, ran well didn't need anything, at the time didn't know anything about rovers, also was my first vehicle. $800 for the second one, ps leak, tranny cooler leak and needed a good wash. But! It had an ome 2" lift and shocks, arb front bumper with warn xd9000 winch, borla exhaust, sd roof rack, scuba air tank, spare parts and with only a handful of rust. Don't know why he let it go for so cheap but I ain't arguing with it!

About $3500 for my '98 with 72000 back in Dec 2008. It was bone stock with running boards.

$700 for my '96 daily driver with 130000 in April 2012. It had OME lift, yellow/blue bilstiens, RTE steering rods, and almost new 235/85/16's.
