Get something with proper torque then, not that girly POS diesel in those things - unless its the new V8 diesel they have less torque than a modern 1.9TDi

The land cruiser amazon is a gutsy yoke, and better off road, and bigger.

What are you going to be towing?

Quote from: Beakersilver, black will make you look like a Drug Dealer.

He isnt? :shock:

As for needing a car for towing, you would need something a hell of a size to require one of those, unless you need to go cross country get a RWD estate instead.

towing another car on a braked trailer

the 3.0 TD6 produces 390Nm the 4.6 V8 i had before produced 380Nm.. so whats the problem?

287 lb/ft through 4x4 wouldnt pull the skin off a sh*t.

A remapped fabia Vrs makes more than that!

like i said the TD6 produces more torque than the old V8 i had and that had more than enough to do what i needed

Mines got the following

Engine size = 2.8 Turbo intercooled diesel
Model = 4M40 OHC 4 Cylinder
Fuel system — Distributor type injection pump
Compression ratio — 21:1
Power — 92 kW (125 BHP) at 4000 rpm
Torque — 294 N·m (217 ft·lbf) at 2000 rpm

All i can tell you about the rangie is:

Turbo direct injection
Engine Size 2926 cc
Cylinders 6
0-60 mph 12.7 s
Power Output 174 bhp
Valves 24
Torque 390 Nm    288 lb-ft
Top Speed 111 mph

oh and:

Weight 2545 kg

Get a landcruiser amazon, not a wag mobile

pah no, it offers a touch more power.. from a bigger engine.. so no surprises!

I dont like the look, or the mechanical stuff, prefer a button and a light to a lever on the console.

The interior looks cheap and dated IMO, so no, its the modern luxury from the range rover for me.

I dont know what landcruiser youve been looking at, but they certainly arent dated - they look better inside with the full options pack than any land rover.  The late eighties and early nineties ones do look a bit 80s though.

What mechanical stuff? Theyre far, far more advanced than the land rovers, plus they can go off road not just up a muddy path.

At the end of the day though beauty is in the eye of the footballers wife....

can you link to the one your thinking of?

How much are you spending out of interest?

mk3 range rovers can be had for as little as £15.5k im looking at spending £16-17k

Im with Mark, definatly into Amazon money there.
