Laundau on CarSales

[guzzis3]

Someone might pay it I don't know, especially the blue one with all that origional stuff.

I know this is probably heresy but there was a reason the landau didn't sell. I'll never forget riding in the back seat of a mates cobra hardtop. you know the white things with the blue stripes ? XC I think it was. Anyway I'm short but there still wasn't anything like enough headroom. So the only people who would buy a landau was someone who wanted an LTD but never carried more than 1 passenger. That's got to be a limited market. I was never clear on who would buy a hardtop falcon new either. Why would you willingly go without back doors for the same money ? They were never as popular as the 2 door monaros.

Another bloke had the 4 door xc with a 51 and 4 wheel discs. THAT was fun! but he kept blowing up gearboxes for some reason. I suspect his driving... I think it was manual, top loader maybe ? ..memory is failing...

Anyway...

Yeah, never understood why people bought cars, or clothing, or food...

If you have the need to mock another member then have a little decency to quote them in context.

The Landau overall is the smallest of the hardtop production run so that would make them comparatively rare. http://hardtophub.com.au/facts/
