Land Cruiser knowledge

I have a '97 LC Colorado 3 liter diesel and tow with it regularly. It replaced a badly corroded Defender.

 

The LC is much better apart from two things: it's not legal to tow more than 2.7t, and you can't have lowbox without difflock.

 

Mpg for me is about the same: just over 20mpg if not towing, just under if towing. This is mostly short runs around Bath.

 

I bought it at 220k miles. It needed a clutch, tyres, waterpump, timing belt and rear suspension in the first year. It's not needed anything in the last 3 years. 

 

If/when it dies, I'd probably just have the same again.
