Which one is best ?

11redrex · 11-10-2010, 18:33

My brother is looking for a new vehicle and has mentioned a Terrano a few times.
He'll mostly use it on the road, and go light green laning in it occasionally. Money's not really an issue, so which one's best ? By that I mean which one's got most toys ?

late 3.0 one is my guess..

but you can add your own toys

hi think with the 2.7tdi after may 2000 the model ur looking for is the SE+ if that helps

11redrex · 11-10-2010, 19:52

SE+ , is that the top of the range ? Are they better than the 3 litre ?

from what i can see after may 2000 it is the top of the range with the 2.7tdi the 3.0l tdi is the sve.
3.0l has better mpg then the 2.7tdi but cant run on svo but from what i have heard it can run on bio diesiel.

doesn't the 3.0lt have engine issues, i have heard that the 3.0lt patrol engines are prone the piston failures, thats from another forum,
