Very good value against any 6 cylinder 4wd or Defender, 300 series etc. The absolute value proposition if comparing only utes remains with Triton in my view...maybe Isuzu at a push if they sort out some issues. But if the Ranger 3.0 does as well as I hope for Ford then down the track I would certainly consider (but only likely to do so if I got a heavy boat again. My 1 tonn jobbie at present is too easy for the little 2.4 punchy Mitsubishi motor). Cheers

Thats one of our key drivers... We like the Triton also.

However, 2.5t of Shark Cat and plans for a 20' Offroad van in the next few years were too much for the little engine.

Just my 2 cents worth,keep a very close eye on the 90.

The 110 my son had deteriorated pretty quickly while it was in storage,and that was only for 12 months.

Rust and corrosion started in all sorts of places one would least think of,then the mice decided to have a chew....

The Ford should work out well,a couple of mates i know are onto the new Everest to replace their D4's.

Thanks. The 90 will be well treated before it hits the shed.

Still have 8 months of use before the Ranga Ranger arrives.

Orange, nice. Keen to see a write up about the new one in the other manufacturers pages on here Tombie. Cheers

Test drove the New Everest this week was very impressed until i measured the back.

The dog sits 1 metre tall the back of the Everest is 800mm

He loves the D2a because he can sit and look out the windows - lol

He fits in a 300 series which i have on order (GXL) but that is 17 months off

Stock 300 series recently got a glowing review of both travel to the Simpson & Simpson Crossing (4 part series)

I asked Landrover for a price and measurement on a Defender 110 10 days ago & have only received the stock standard "we received your email response".

Does anyone know the height (floor to roof) of a 110 in the cargo area?

Thanks - i think Noah can live with 94cm

The last 6cm are just hair

I will have to follow up Landrover

They don't seem to be doing prices on line any more?

Funny you should say that. My German Shepherd loves the D2 for the same reason. Great spot for a big dog and low enough to make loading and unloading stress free for their joints. Cheers
