Thread: Iveco Daily 4x4

You know if you want to draw as long bow , you could sort of say it has LandRover heritage .

The Santana Landrover became the Iveco Massif, which has been in turn superseded by the Iveco Daily

(I said a long bow)

Not that long. The Massif had the Daily engine. I would guess parts of the drive train have also been used and I see that on some, they have continued to use the koru design they had on the Massif (as part of the All Blacks promo).

I ran the 2x4 version of this in the UK. It was a 2000 model Iveco 65 C15 double cab, which had the same cab as the ones pictured but with an earlier nose design. The cab was sat atop a 6.5 tonne chassis which put it at a similar height, and I had a 6' x 12' tipper body on mine which I used to haul my off roader around on. It was geared fairly low but used to haul 3 tonnes happily at 100kph. Photos on old computer so I'll have to try and dig them out!

$85-$90K on road for a 4x4 Daily Dual cab tray.
Have a few at work. How many do you want?
SES has a couple of them of trial. Factory triple lockers.

how bout a test drive??

I saw a couple of Iveco Daily 's at a Caravan park recently and they both had Fifth wheels for towing. The trailers were huge so they must be good tow vehicles. I think they were non 4WD version though as they seemed quite low.

We bought one of these and set it up as the boilermaker's truck on site up at Nullagine. Quite nice to drive (once you get used to the wierd gear shifter in the middle of the dash) and very roomy cab (huge storage area under the back seat in the 4 door).

But we have since got rid of it and replaced it with a Mitsubishi. Things "fall off it" very easily - and the computer / electronics is a bloody nightmare. I'd never consider another one.

The best part of it was that the distributor in Perth (Skippers) does not have a branch in the Pilbara, so they send you to Corefleet rentals for any repairs or warranty work - and those idiots can't even keep their riceburner hire fleet in reasonable condition.

Currently I'm working at the company which builds/produces it for Iveco...
Sitting in the passenger's seat for the test drive was an experience
