lambert:
so much like every other jap car, you need to find that one car that's been in a garage all it's life with a new layer of underseal every year regardless.  [-o<

Lincs niva:

a few reasons, mostly regarding reliability but also cos in this country if you are into offroading there's a perception that you have to have a landy to be taken seriously. I know that's as much of a stereotype as their reliability but it isn't without some substance.

yeah true, but with good reason often.  like it or not a land rover is a logical choice for off roading, all the kit is available cheap, spare parts are available cheap and they are as good as anything else if not better. The clutches will take one hell of a beating and they have plenty of grunt. Most people with jap stuff are people who have moved in to real off road from green laning. with many soft roaders there is a practical limit to their capability (ie torsion bar suspension etc) so once you go extreme there isnt much you can do to upgrade.

But most triallers you see are either old jeeps or land rovers.

But i understand where you are coming from, i used to off road a 110 and i liked the fact that it wasnt as bad as people thoght and surprised a few folk every now and again.

Rasbo:
