    The 110 didn't have useable loadspace?. Pat

    Nope. The rear door is too narrow compared with a D1. A D1 will take a pallet in the back door.

    The 110 wheel arches occupy so much space the width between them isn't that great.

    About the only downside to the cavernous space they do have is the back door.

    Am I right in assuming the rear load area of a 90 and a 110 are the same size.

    I wonder, have they ever made a factory built 130 wagon?

    That would have been my thought, without checking the Pommy website for specs. If you are single, a couple, and/or have got rid of the little "treasures", I can't see them being a bad bit of gear. Yes SWB vehicles are a little choppy in the ride but they have coils and you can play with spring rates a bit. Got to be better than a SWB Tojo of years gone by.

    I kind of like the two door 110. Either wagon or Ute. You could always do a Lara Croft Jobby if you want the pose factor.
    I think the main thing to think about with these fourbies, is at least they have proper tyre sizes for off roading.
    When the Green pollies get their way, a Disco on 55 profile tyres is not something I'd be happy with out bush.

    When the Green pollies get their way, you won't be allowed out bush.

    Take the rear seats out of a D1 and you have more useful space than a 90 and access doors as well!
