Best of new 4x4's on market

[Commando]

I had the same conversation a cuppla days ago.

 

 

 

I have a two year old 3.0L which is great, but I planned to swap it next March. I'm now wondering whether to swap it earlier to get the last of the current 3.0L or just keep this one longer. (There is nothing wrong with it, I just planned to swap out every three years.)

 

 

 

I am wondering if Toyota will reverse their decision in a couple of years and bring in the 2.8L model which they are reserving for markets which aren't presided over by limp-wristed, psuedo-green, quorn-munching bed-wetters.

 

 

Ha yeah I was thinking exactly the same mate, chop in for a new old model and hang in until we ain't in the EU anymore!!- sounds like a fine reason to leave to me!! 👍😀

I love the new Navara, if I had to replace the Landy tomorrow that would most likely be my choice..

Mind you, I have never seen a defender do this....

For me, it depends on the weight of the trailer and the surface.

 

In the yard I can't see a need even at the weight limit and, as four wheel drive with no centre diff comes into play, it wouldn't be a good idea anyway. (I am talking about the Hilux here, but I think the same is true of the Navara.)

 

On grass or in mud, yep - most of the time.

I only use low box when the mud is deep or 2 wheels are off the ground. Land Rover - best4x4xfar.....

A lot; it stops the clutch-riding but doesn't work when reversing round corners!
