    110 0r 130

    About to purchase a brand spanking new LR and it's come down to a choice between a 110 or 130 crew cab. Any opinions on pros and cons between both?
    Cheers
    Barry

    IMHO the answer to this would mainly depend on what uses you intend for the vehicle ....

    and to a lesser degree what ease of parking you require and what garage space you have...

    ... another LR owner in TAS (the state that doesn't want tourists from the north island) - welcome to the forum

    ..Errr, just buy one of each???

    As said, 130 is a great touring vehicle, a 110 is a great touring and everyday vehicle, it really comes down to what you are intending to use it for. There are times I wish my 110 was a 130, but mostly happy with the way it is.

    And welcome! are you in the north or South?

    Personally I would go the 130. I currently have a 110. Having said that I think the new 110s come with a few more options than the 130. Still I would go the 130 as it is a lot more versatile. I would go a custom trade rear tray with gull wing doors, twin tyre carrier, chassis rear drawer system, wheel arch tool boxes & water tank (maybe even auxillary battery). Roof top tent on the back and half roof rack and or solar panel.
    Still a little way away for me I think.
    Best of luck which ever way you go.

    I would have expected the 130 to be very big for a daily driver - its a long vehicle. eg parking, parking lots, nimbleness etc. I think they would be a fantastic tourer though!
