Next best would have to be a Landy...been around long before anything else.

If you are after something for heavier off road use then I'd go old school. They are built more for the purpose and you won't need to be so worried about it. Get something shiny for the road. If it is something they can offer you low profiles for it at the dealership then leave it at the dealership.

Anything that can survive a few years on a ex native cleared stump filled coastal property that gets the better part 2000mls of rain per year has my vote.

A few snapped springs, flogged brakes, broken driveshaft's and a smashed front diff are the only serious things that have gone wrong with it (tractor grips (and teenage boys) are hard on gear) Still starts on the coldest morning after an 8 second glow.

As you can see, our farm "tracks" get a bit challenging in the winter time :ORLY:
Here ya go, all fibre body, needs work, no doors, on LPG, rego and warrant, all certified inc LPG, no winch but has bracket. 6 cylinder motor. Attachment 17135Attachment 17136Attachment 17137Attachment 17138Attachment 17139Attachment 17140Attachment 17141Attachment 17142Attachment 17143
1983 Toyota Land Cruiser asking $7k, would take $6k but I think he'd negotiate?
He is away in LaLa land if he thinks he will get $7k for that..... I think 2k is pushing it!
Iv got a 2 dr, 1.6 manual, Suzuki vitara 2001 with yokohama geolanders on as a farm/hunting/runabout and I can thoroughly recommend them, they can leave your big heavy hiluxs etc for dead as far as mud and hillclimbing. Could be for sale soon.
lada niva, had one years ago and it went places you wouldn't belive
Make a good sinker for puka fishing in 2000m :DQuote:
