Navara quick question

[Stubby]

My 05 navara has been reconned, apart from being gutless when towing ( still haven't got to the bottom of the problem), lovely to drive and very good on fuel.

 

Mine has never been gutless towing . It drags a Jensen A540 about no worries . I have removed the interals from the DPF , blanked off the EGR valve and fitted a larger bore stainless exhaust .

What do people think to hilux so then? Seeing as most people are telling me the navara is crap and also a mechanic tells me to get a hilux.

 

They good once they get up into 150k miles or so?

I've just bought one but upped my budget from 6K to 8K because i couldn't find much decent in that price bracket. I had a look at that garage, they had a few navara's on offer as well as other makes but none that i fancied. I ended up with this mazda bt50, 09 plate and 72000 miles.

Fwiw, I had a Navarra for a couple of years, only issue I had was the timing chain adjuster took its time working so it rattled a bit in the mornings for a couple of minutes.

The 2.7 Terrano I had 15 years ago was soooo slow 80mph max.

My mate had another Navarra and it blew up in classic fashion. New recon engine didn't break the bank.

I wouldn't hesitate to get another. (Although tbf I'll be replacing the ranger with another ranger)

I'm slowly working through all the options, I know what it should be like, going to be a eureka moment when it's sussed,

Mine does that, did it get any worse? Soon as its warmed up it disappear s

No, I asked at the garage and they told me not to worry.
