Help On What To Buy

(1/5) > >>

Presa:
Hi I need to buy a 4x4 but want an all rounder!

After seeing Topgear the other night ive took the plunge and come looking for a site on 4x4's and found this one and have been hooked ever since :)

I would love a hilux like what Clackson was driving but dont have the cash

i need somthing that is able to tow a trailer from time to time, im not yet that intrested in going totaly mad off roading like over rocks ect but will deff be up for a bit of green laning

I do a lot of driving abroad and would like to go to other countrys like morroco and pleaces with Snow aswell :?

I also love the Bigfoot look so the 2" body lift and 2" suspention lift with the big rims and arches really apeals to me too

Sorry for the long post but would love to here what you would buy if you was in my position

Cheers Ben :D

MudRat:
Depends on money, but 300 tdi discos are very good buys at the moment.

waterrover:
the company i work for have about 10 toymotas , off road they are awful , towing even worse (back end is far too light ) and on the black stuff the lads complain underpowered . oh and light offroading causes mega wheel wobble as the mud collects on the inside of the wheels , not a criticism just an observation !

laser_jock99:
A 3.0L TD Hilux Surf might fit your requirement?

Don't be put off by the 'Green Oval Brigade'- green is the colour of envy!!!

Big Drew:
nice balanced view :shock:  :shock: ran a surf for 2 years, and there are some serious bargains to be had now. excellent off road with cheap suspension mods, quicker than a disco if you can stretch to the 3litre. tow well as well.

if you want a serious off road tool you have to be looking at land rover, but look on www.hiluxsurf.co.uk the toyota hilux surf is an excellent vehicle.


by the way, i now run a 300tdi disco, purely for the off road part availabilty and price.
