Help needed! All things considered, do I buy or not?

[rich]

I've had a 3.0 for nearly two years and I beat the sh!t out of it on a daily basis.

I first used it to commute 120 miles a day and it took it in it's stride. I now use it like the "Builders" for my business and it has about 300kg in it and the engine doesn't notice it (Allthough it wallows a bit more )

They are superb motors and like everyone says, the grin never goes.

I say this every time this question comes up but "My Surf never ceases to amaze me!"

Rich.

I bought mine on impulse, not even with a test drive!!..was originally going for a Hyundai Santa Fe....best move I've made in getting this vehicle and wondered why I hadn't got this vehicle before. This is my first 4x4

I like others use the vehicle for a variety of things. Commuting to work mainly when the traffic will let me, off-roading, lugging stuff about and have had a horse trailer on the back a couple of times [Malvern and back no probs]

I certainly am not mechanically minded, but the parts are so easy to get to I am trying to do more myself. Parts have been ordered from toyota with the Chassis number, from Milners, Roughtrax and 4x4accessoriesandtyres

Apart from fuel consumption which you expect to be up anyway [and u soon stop counting the cash to fill up] I would certainly say to go for it.

You'd be mad not too
