Perhaps you need to post a picture of your landy up to ease our weeping eyes

I've got a 2005 Prado and it's not a bad vehicle at all. I like it's 180ltr tank which is well over twice the size of a Defenders, it's comfortable for what I want to do which isn't hard core off roading and I suspect when discounting all the bullcrap, that's exactly what most of us do, and best of all Toyota have a few dealers outside the metro areas which LRA haven't!
The shape of the new one or the old doesn't turn me on and I still look fondly at Defenders (and the Cook insists on waving at the things!) but this will do me for a while especially now I've made drawers, installed the fridge and done other small things to make it more useful like a bullbar and better suspension etc.
Cheers and keep on dreaming fellas.

You need a large tank in it, my mate has a 2005 td prado and he only gets just over 100k and its as original as it was out of the showroom, he nearly cried when i told him i get close to that out of 80 ltrs.

Wow you dont even get 100k out of a tank in your TDI? thats sucks for you...

Mines not great either, 150L fill gets me about 13-1400km at best, usualy worse then that tho with a heavy right foot and getting out on the beach a bit. Ive also have a custom exhaust and chip, the exhaust made a huge difference to power and economy
