    This is a true beast. I work for an organization that procured these from Gibraltar stockholdings(that's the name of the co.) This is the only car that has survived horrible terrains of South Sudan,DRC, Darfur etc places that I have been in these cars. I have never met a mech who has overhauled this engine especially in South Sudan where we crossed laggas( temporary rivers) . We had an LC which had clocked over 700k km with no issues at all.Max Respect to this car!!. The most crazy trips I did on this car was in S.Sudan from Yei to Yambio where only the MAN 8X8 trucks and this LC could easily conquer!

    Once, I broke the rear differential and I had to put it into 4wd and since the rear wheels were not pushing it, it actually became a front wheel drive and I drove through the bush road for about 600+km until I reached the nearest authorized service center.

    My daily vehicle in Mara. People asking about consumption, it's 6-7km/litre. Another thing when servicing, make sure the mech gives it 11 litres of engine oil. Some mechs don't get to 11

    Nice review Mr. Wokabi. Just to add on that, this beast chews the rough corrugation roads like biscuits hitting 100+km/h comfortably especially when loaded. The ones that transport khat to North Eastern region of Kenya, their pilots can attest to it. Point to note! Be very cautious going downhill when loaded, the brakes tend to fail when doing hard braking. As a newbie, I almost overturned one on those Meru slopes, I was saved by downshifting to second and then first gear after hitting a bump and being airborne for a second maahn! Anyway, it's a beast I'd drive any day anywhere forever.

    THe greatest of them all. All hail te 70 Series! Been driving a Troopie (78) for the past year and I can confidently say It's the undisputed king of the jungle! Not a daily driver though, its a thirsty one sometimes doing as bad as 5.5kmpL, terrible turning circle and in towns its just awful to be in tose tight roads. But out on the open roads, gravel roads in all wheels, its te best experience you"ll ever experience in any truck!
