I'm currently prepping an 80 series for an Aussie couple who are doing the same thing, leaving next August and then heading East to Aus.
They bought a UK 80 series and then will import it into Aus.
From memory the 80s are cheaper here than in Aus, it certainly wouldn't be worth getting one in Aus and then importing it.
Having said that, a lot of the best kit for prepping the vehicle comes from Aus, but even so I think that it will still be cheaper to buy one prepped here or prep it yourself than to import a prepped one from Aus.
I won't even try to enter into the LR v's LC discussion - LC's always win
