    Diana 75 price when new

    I'm trying to find out the price when new of the Diana 75. Would anyone be able to help? A copy of a catalogue would be perfect

    Thanks

    About £200 in 1979. The model remained in production for well over a decade though.

    Found an advert in July 1980 Airgun World for £186.50, another for £184, and a couple for £225.

    Thank you! Was wondering how it converted to today's money.

    According to an inflation calculator
    1980
    £184 = £857
    £186.50 = £869
    £225 = £1049

    1979
    £200 = £1056

    A bit late, but here's an Ad from Aug 1979, Original 75 Match £176.....rrp £225. As said above that's £1000 give or take. The first 75 was released in May 1977, I've no info that far back unfortunately.

    First port of call for any airgun resources is always Danny's excellent Vintage Airguns Gallery, you'll not find a fuller compendium of airgun goodness anywhere.
