@mage1724

Never noticed that. I'm suprised no one else noticed it! Thanks though.

Your wrong the landcruiser is reliable and the range rover breaks down every 4 miles

my dad owned a Land Cruiser Prado 2 , the model before 2000 , brute force offroader . Now a days toyota makes bendable plastic SUV's which don't deserve to be called Land Cruiser. The Old ones were pure steel , an accident won't do no harm to the SUV.

Still have my landcruiser has 294k miles on it and still runs like new!!!!!

Seriously. Did he just call the g-wagon ugly? And what is the range rover then? The merc is the best looking out of the bunch! And the best at off roading! The range rover didn't have a nice interior? And it would have had terrible build quality. Mercedes had fantastic build quality! Jermy Clarkson is the most over-rated car reviewer in the world. And that's the same for top gear too.

@blobrob85  I totally agree. And when I said 1,000,000 km I meant minimum if the engine is looked after as it is probably gonna cover more as long as it is maintained well. It all boils down to personal taste, and I prefer the G wagon. Don't even bother with Land Rovers, they are complete and utter junk/

[blobrob85]

@hotbegreturns I agree with you that the G wagon is a great truck, but so is the Landcruiser. Whatever the Landcruiser lacks in class and sophistication, it makes up for it in brute force and unstopability. 1 million KM is a walk in the park for an heavy duty Landcruiser like the 80 series that's why NGOs use them in remote areas where there are no roads. We could argue all day long about which one is better, but there is no point as they are both in an entirely different league from the LR.

[hotbegreturns]

@blobrob85 nope im talking about the g wagon. you only believe it when you own one. g wagons are something special altogether- after all, they were intended for the armed forces!

[blobrob85]

@hotbegreturns Sounds like your talking about the landcruiser to me

[scottpd1404]

Do this send all the old G- wagons and Land cruisers to the US and we will send you back all the rovers.
