Friend of mine has a Grand Jeep something,.. it has a 4 liter petrol engine,.. BUT with LPG he's been driving it around for about 5 years now...
So you might find an LPG converted petrol at a snip???

Like the Scooby...and the Hummer, and Dans 'generous offer' LOL!!

She decided to add a Terrano-like driving position to the mix now - Gaylander is too low apparently and that sorts of cans the Scooby too.

Fourtrak would be an idea, shedloads of them round here running on Meccano bits!!

But it seems to be coming back to either a SWB T2 for her, or a newish Jeep for me,,,,hmmmmmm!

Like those

started off looking at them but I always fancied the Grand Cherokee and it can tow more.

Some of the Cherokees like that are luxurious inside. I had a look at one on a 54 plate that had the 2.7 diesel and so many goodies i think it did actually make a cup of tea

personally, i'd go for newish Jeep for me, T2 for her....!!

Mmmm highly tempting....but the thing I've always liked about the Terrano, especially down these windy Welsh lanes, is the fact its no wider than a car....makes a difference when you're dodging bloody livestock trailers driven by the local village idiot....

Adz · 01-06-2010, 20:57

I'd stay Jap n go for another T2 or a Shogun / Pajero

All down to personal taste innit

......................or lack of taste in some cases

lacroupade · 01-06-2010, 21:40

and after 3 x T2s I'm a bit bored TBH....and the later Shoguns have been pretty slated haven't they?

I'd go for a double cab pickup - prob the Mazda B50 - but can't afford to pay £10.90 on the bloody bridge every week....

zippy656 · 01-06-2010, 21:41

what about a toyboata.. save on the bridge...
