710M and 712M price when new?

Post by TechMOGogy »

I am sure this has been posted but 67++ pages came back when I tried some searches.
Anyone know what the original cost of a 710M and a 712M would have been back in the 70's?
Thanks,
Dan

1978 4-Wheeler stated that the units sold to civilians (710K) would be sold between 25-30K

In todays dollars that is around 107,000

I would imagine that the military variants were somewhat higher depending on 712/Rapier/Ambulance options, I'd expect the high end ones topping out between 150-200K in todays dollars, but that's all speculation.

Ya, Governments would have paid a decent dollar when new. For Canadians interested, I paid $6500 for my restored 1985 Bombardier Iltis....the Canadian Government paid about $80,000 new.
