What new pickup...?

[Ty Korrigan]

Now then...

I've all the brochures and am currently on a mission to 'test drive' all makes but what I would like to ask is... Just which one is...the one!

The pickup must also double as a family car so double cab and a degree of comfort.

 

Landrover can do all but are they really that unreliable? plus they consume alot of fuel per 100km

The rest of the field...

Well above all I want reliability full stop.

Then comes:

Comfort

Economy

Towing

Price

Off road capability

Terrible things brochures!

Leading my eye towards leather seats and chrome trim...

I can live without that but want aircon and 5 proper seats.

Can you help me make up my mind please!

DO NOT GET A LAND ROVER!! the new vw double cab looks good. was in argentina last month and there all over the place over there.

the new VW is lovely my father in law has one and is averaging 35+mpg i was looking at getting one but my VW dealer quoted me a year + for delivery.

[Lyndon]

totally agree the new vw looks lovely, only downside is they are only doing a 2l version for the diesel, but if towing big stuff is low on the agenda then the vw is the one for me

i drove one in argentina and might only be a 2l but my god did it fly.. all the farmers have replaced there toyotas with them..

Bulletproof.

 

 

Do you need the load-bed Ty, or would you consider Discovery type closed vehicles?

.....

 

The Amarok is built in VW's Argentinian factory, but UK-bound models will have a Euro-friendly 2.0-litre TDI diesel engine - available with 161bhp or 120bhp.

 

 

that's probably why. do the argentinians have a beefed up, non eco friendly engine?
