It'll be 2.2. The 3.2 was only available in limited spec and above in double cabs. Rest was choice of 2.2 or 2.2 lol.

Needs MOT next month but tbh nothing. I will likely throw a set of injectors at it as they cause issues at 100k plus if you don't. But it's alright. 3.2t towingLooks a lot of truck for the money. What is wrong with it??

I just saw my first spangly New Land Cruiser LX - think it was V8 and was white with tray back. In Holsworthy -Devon. Christ it’s a good looking thing , I wouldn’t be telling people if I won the lottery, but there would be signs!!

85k truck with a 201hp 4cylinder engine…. I know it’s not all about power and size… but that’s going to be very sluggish in such a big truck!!

His was a left hand drive import, but with leather etc not work spec property spec. Think his was Australia /New Zealand spec where the older boxier ones are Middle East Africa spec

I’m a fully signed up member to ideally not spending more than 20k on a pickup but I buy them outright run them 5-6 years then try recoupe 60-70% on them. But they get worked and scratched dented etc.
One of these looks ok though, my dad had a king cab navara with suicide doors worked well for tools etc
Decent set of chunkier wheels tyres make a lot of difference to it as well

That’s why I’m going back to a van for daily work. 25k buys you a brand new one and I get all my tools in it with space to carry materials etc.

It's a canal that's in the ground not the air

Problem is the days of pickups being a long term purchase are long gone.... No make is bomb proof.... Toyota's are getting a name for being rot boxes under the tubs... Ford Ecoboom, Nissans eat turbos, Mitsis are just well Mitsis and unfortunately Isuzu have won the hearts of the utility industry and feel they can charge whatever they want for parts.
IF someone had the balls to develop a basic chassis cab 4x4 that retailed for £20-40k and you put your own body on it'd sell astronomically well..... But they won't. Because the yuppie twat market is too good.

I do believe Ford had a huge issue with the rear axles… in that they didn’t work and had no replacements? And don’t Nissans split in half? And the newer Hilux 2.8 L engine is just very poor!
It’s all steering us all into leasing, something I never want to do!

£85k!!! Maybe if it had a big diesel V8 (like a proper Land Cruiser) but definitely not with the Hilux power train.Auto Trader UK - New and Used Cars For Sale
