Toyota FZJ105 GXL Landcruiser Auto, 2000
Good Points
First there is plenty of room for the family and the gear, Plenty of comfort for the evryday boring stuff, then theres plenty of power from the 4.5 petrol (on petrol/lpg) Rigid front axle
Bad Points
Need more gears in the Auto and hill descent would help and to be honest I (thats me not the wife) would rather a Turbo Diesel
Rig to high for carport with roof rack on so its on again off again as needed.
What mods have you done?
LPG, Spare wheel carrier, 2" Lift all round, King Springs, Scorched4 Shocks, Cooper A/T's, Dual Batteries, Battery Isolator, Anderson plugs to Rear bar and rear compartment, TJM Steel winch Bar, IPF lights, UHF, Alloy Roof Rack with power whinch for, Savage 14' "Tinny" Car Topper & 8HP Tohatsu (when towing Caravan), Alloy Cargo Barrier (in & out when needed)
What mods are on the list to do?
Winch, second set of Mud wheels & tyres, better suspension mods
Why did you buy this vehicle?
Big family (growing kids) so needed lots of seats (that come out easily) with plenty of room for long legs. Looks fantastic Mud or not. Price, comfort easy to drive and park (wife likes it better than her old BA Fairmont) trouble is I dont get to drive it very often :-(
How often do you go offroad?
Most weekends we manage to find some dirt somewhere still need MORE
What will your next vehicle be?
2nd car - Dedicated Off Road Ute (for me)
