    Noice Just put the invoices in a folder and never ever add them all up (I don't even open the folder anymore I just slide them in from the side).

    It's an investment in a very cool 4x4 that you'll be able to keep pretty much forever.

    If you are going to Africa go for the 200tdi as it will handle any rubbish, adulterated diesel that you may have to buy in the more remote parts where they dilute diesel with paraffin or any old rubbish they can find!!!
    I heard of a guy with a land cruiser 70 series in Angola(6 cylinder) that used a racor fuel filler filter when filling up, had two inline racor type filters and still the injectors got stuffed!!! the 200tdi will handle it easy.

    I have developed faith in my Tdci. And I am starting a learning process on potential problematic sensors and will eventually get a spare ECU married to the car. They are just spare parts for the vehicle like a fan belt.

    I think however, if I knew what I do now, had the space, tools, and time I'd so exactly what you are doing. I'd ditch that space grabbing inefficient air conditioner though and fit one of the eskies on the roof. Probably forgo the roll gage to pay for it. Remember if its being built for tourer, every Kg is worth something. Most things have a trade off, and the reason I haven't added a roll cage to mine. Besides, if it rolls above 60 it's a write off regardless.
