    And still have forward motion,not like a lot of other pretenders....

    I have crossed up the D2 many times with a wheel 2 feet in the air and open and close the doors like a bought one...what LR's have issues with that?

    Cheers

    The coiler model will no doubt be the poverty pack that doesn't sell well,just like D3/4/5.

    And after reading the above,i can't see this vehicle costing less than $85-$95K,at a minimum,for a middle of the range model with EAS,it all points to an expensive vehicle.

    In fact,if you want the big engine,it will more than likely be over $100K.

    They sort of hint that low range will be an option as well,without it,it can't be the most capable vehicle they have ever made.

    Not sure about terminology but stronger the better. So a win. Also gives a clear idea of what a D5 is and ISNT.

    I remember the discussion, it was an au article and from memory and landcruiser was speculation, not part of the direct quote, happy to be proven wrong. Do i believe LC was one of the cars used to benchmark above Will be Retro, more than likely.
