Thread: It's time

On my way to finalise the deal and trade my old MJ mitsu in. Some of you have guessed what it is so will post pics and an explanation why we went this way latter.

Cheers Tony

Good one mate,that gave me a good belly laugh to start off my day,

Ok some pics of our new Ride.


There are a few reasons for our final choice......
1 I hate Hilux and many others
2 Budget
3 Land Rover dealers managed to upset my wife with their bad PR manor Good one boys So it went no further
4 Very good 5/10 warranty.
5 Tow capacity
6 Rear seat comfort
7 No lift needed for 32" tyres
8 Safety etc
9 We really need a ute as can't carry chemicals in a SUV etc
10 Good looks

OK that's ten

Oh one other, I already have the best Land Rovers ever built

Now ready for an ear bashing and willing to take bait









Still waiting on the front and rear bars etc

Nice. If I was in the market for a dual cab 4wd ute, that is what I would get.
I even told the boss recently that when he buys me a work ute (fingers crossed for next year!) that one of those is my first choice. We already have Navaras (old shape and current shape) and a Hilux.

Have to disagree on the point about looks. IMO Mitsu really stuffed up on the looks of their new utes.

That said, I do think they are a lot better built than the Rollux. Enjoy the ugly duckling.

Well worth a look I can assure you. Value for money etc. The base model are a bit bland though and miss out on the high output engine
I have no regrets now. Was a bit concerned I wouldn't like it a wile back.

Ugly but interesting Bit like some humans, its whats on the inside that counts. Nothing will ever look a good as the RRC did in its day

I like Tritons - the new ones are UUUUUUUUUUUUUGLY but they are very under rated IMHO.

When time comes to replace the Pootrol, it will probably be a second hand Triton D/Cab.
