I believe Land Rover tried them for a while...

What about into a Toyota?

I'm sure it's power delivery is totally wrong for a truck, and a Lex or Rover is a better bet, but hey, just think of the sound - and the badges you could fit! Imagine this? Bright red Surf with a prancing horse badge just behind each wheelarch. You know what? If I had a few grand to spare - I'd go for it!

What would you call it though?

Furf?

Surfari? YES!!!

Simples .. Roar e'

There's always a Payback ..Ya don't know where n ya never know when tho !!

No, I don't think Land Rover ever tried that.

Milners have been using the Lexus V-8 in most of their off-road racers for a while now.

They aint Landies John. They might look like, but they aint. I know someone with a Tomcat, and a vague similarity in appearance to a squat defender is where the similarity ends!

if my numbers came up a bowler would be high on my list of must haves,

re landies, if you chuck enough money at them they will make a good off roader, but they will break and deffo leak but thats all part of the caracture
