    TDI depending on which marketing manual you read means one of the following

    Turbo Direct Injected
    Turbo Diesel Intercooled

    Toyota Debogging Impliment

    IMHO as all diesels are injected and these days 99.9% of them use direct injection as its easier to make the head (read cheaper) TDI stands for the second of the 3 options the 3rd one is only really aplicable to Landrovers.

    I stand corrected.

    though Turbo Diesel Intercooled, better sums up the engine IMHO

    I'm 6'2" and the drivers seat is raised 22mm (7/8") which works fine for me.

    BTW, 130's are actually 127" wheelbase.

    I'm 198cm (6'6'') tall and I fit in my 110 with no problems. Would prefer more room, but have driven over 1000km's in a day (seats are not modified).
    Cheers Iggy

    I'm 6'2" and no twiggy and I'm quite happy in my defender without seat mods. You just have to learn to sit up in a correct position and you'll be fine. Given the small windscreen you'll probably never need the sun visor but that's a good thing.
