hello and welcome..

I seriously like auto, as it allows me to almost forget about the car.

Would appreciate a 'proper' diff lock though, and i find it sits a bit low too - muchos $$ to get it raised 30mm.

Swings and roundabouts really.....auto a lot less tiring to drive and just as efficient, but expensive if it goes wrong, which it can do especially if its towed over-weight (towing weight is around 1200kgs lower than the manual), but then the manual needs a clutch at around £500-600 in a half-decent garage, and another £700-800 to drop and replace gearbox with a recon....you takes yer choice really.

Mazda Tippee Bongo....yes please!

Cheaper to buy a 'proper' terrano (T2), ground clearance comes free! :thumb2

 

[kbekl]

and to add with the auto t2 it is quicker and better on fuel

 

[jezmondoveg]

bloomin heck 600 for a cluch!! and 800 for a recon gearbox!

is the auto gear box pricey too?

 

[jezmondoveg]

but now iam sure you will tell me they harly go wrong anyway!

around £1500 for a rebuild :thumbs

But like all things, its down to how they've been treated.....personally I'd never buy an auto that has a towbar cos you never know what they've been up to. I looked at one a while ago when I bought the wifes and the blokes missus happily told me how it "easily tows a twin horsebox with two in it"......the look on his face was priceless, especially as I walked away laughing! :lol I suspect that was the last time he let her in on a viewing!

 

[jezmondoveg]

Manual it is then,prob better in snow,i like autos but manual has good points too..

Thanks for your replys chaps..

one day i maybe able to help you as iam a veg head

 

[zippy656]

veg and T2 go together well.. a few of us funning on it here..

 

[jezmondoveg]

Thats great stuff,will be twin tanking i think..would miss running on a high% of veg..as i dont pay for it!
