advice please
i have been running a 3.1 for 7 years no problems but time for a change, like the look of a local 3.0 on a 05 plate but the tales of woe on here are putting me off should i give it a shot or head for a landcruiser or shogun instead ,any advice to help me decide ?
regards

It has been said many times that most people join when they have a problem, most people never have a problem.
If you want to see problems about Shoguns then POCUK is the place  
Dunno about Land cruisers, there forum is very quiet

Land cruiser    or buy my highly Modded 3.0 (not been used off road   ) and I'll go get the land cruiser I've been to look at!!

On a serious note, I came from a 3.1 and bought a 3.0 (a non runner at that) I've had some minor issues but nothing that hasn't been covered on here. I wouldn't want to go back to a 3.1 now and really like the 3.0 engine.

The LC's have a well deserved reputation and you will pay more for one, the diesels hold value more then petrols but that's more the mpg!!

Why go diesel? Why not consider lpg/petrol?

I have just bought another after realisation that it was the most reliable and cheapest 4x4 i ever owned. Never let me down even though it had high miles and was an old shooting truck. I put a lambda sensor on, and some brake pads...cost me as much to run as the neighbours 1.4

I love em!
