As someone who has driven a LC 2006 4.2TD (geez that vehicle was a beauty) and Nissan Patrol 2006 4.2TD (another tank), I wonder how good Nissan’s new Patrol would have been with a diesel motor. I may be one of a selected few but I love both Landcruisers and Patrols 👍🏻
Generally speaking! Every time i watch a 4x4 review,regardless what make,the verdict is always the same. " THIS VEHICLE WILL TACKLE THE TOUGHEST TERRAIN" it will not let you down. Then i scratch my head and wonder why a bought a 2016 Troop carrier.
be cause a TOYOTA is so ugly and Uglier yet reliable.Looks really bad while a Range rover looks so so fine and is even used by the Queen.Toyotas are used in the middle east by Daeshh
Funny how Toyota dont put specs on their website or brochures.. i wouldnt either with a 610kg max payload.. if your gonna spend 130k be prepared to spend another 5k on a GVM upgrade.
There is, but why? I have the 200 series diesel (2008) model and it has performance to die for. I will be upgrading to a later model soon and wont go away from cruiser. I do a lot of towing of horse floats it is superb for that.
@@ianb9028 Question for you Ian that I cannot find an answer to. I am guessing you are in Australia or at least not in North America. Do these top end 200 series have an option for factory lockers (other than the center which I know is standard). Here in the US we only have one trim level of Land Cruiser. The top end with leather etc. Very expensive. I scratch my head that there is no rear locker and wonder if they get that in other parts of the world. There are two blanks where buttons would be and I wonder what those buttons are outfitted with elsewhere... Thanks in advance!
what, did you want it to look like all these new SUVs that basically look like a mini van? just look at the damn discovery it looks like a soccer mums mid-size SUV
Mr. Cairo I don’t see how you can say I’m clueless when my comments are based on my observations. In terms of major component failure, do injectors count? If the second row is huge I’ll be a monkeys uncle. The floor is so high that sitting back there is annoying. I don’t know, in some respects it is a pretty good car for $50,000. Actually, how much does Toyota rip you off again for this big hunk a metal?
guy proulx well, for starters I can spell arse. But leave that aside, glad to read it is made with a thicker windshield - probably as thick as your rose coloured glasses? Anyway, even if it was designed to last 25 years, amazing how many parts get replaced on these things to help them get to 25 (if they aren’t written off in the meantime). And, getting to 25 doesn’t mean it’s worth anything at that point. Depreciation in these vehicles is getting worse.
guy proulx I didn’t miss any of that. Just don’t see how any of it changes the factual statements about my observations above. But anyway, refer to whatever garbage articles you want - and carry on believing that the brakes will last 25 years, and carry on believing the windscreen won’t ever get shattered by rock, steel or meteor, and while you’re at it, keep up the faith. You’ve certainly got more of that in a vehicle than anyone I’ve ever met before. Do you still believe in the tooth fairy too?
guy proulx mediocre try. Nothing you’ve said changes the fact of my observations. But keep up the solid educational tantrum like carry on if you want to. Keeps me remotely entertained.
Imagine the car which can last upto 30 years without any single breakdown compare to land rover, bmw, holden, lexus, porche, Audi etc😢
Still the best... Noblesse oblige!
There are off-road vehicles and there is their King - TOYOTA Land Cruiser 200!
What transmission is this version using. The 6spd or 8
in some areas its rated at 615 Newton Meters of Torque,,why?
Perfect SUV

I guess you could say that the Nissan Patrol is a Nissan Petrol!
Best 4wd out I have a 2017 lc200 v8 vx
Ohhhhhhh yea. Every aussie bloke's dream.
@sami6291 Part of every aussie bloke's dream is to pay off the mortgage AND get the top of the line Landcruiser though. Why not both? ;)
Nice review .. From Kuwait
like it one of the best sahara

Dream car.
How much do you reckon Toyota paid him?
ill take one in white plz, with a towbar body colored cover overlay.
I wish diesel was available in US...
Can't understand why people want to buy Range Rover instead of a Land Cruiser.
and they are shallow. ..they want style over substance. A need to show off. Immature.Foolish.
RR is much more stylish, the interior is more luxury...
Bling bling. Has bigger wheels.
Marketing Genuis !!!

Their brochure says 9l/100km. Wow someone exaggerated a bit. Still a beast of a SUV
Reliable

The best 4WD on the planet!
why Toyota won't add a panoramic sunroof I don't know
Raven Butsu It's an older structure so you'll have to wait for a redesign. Most likely in 2019.
What the hell for? How often do you look straight up when driving around I sure never have!
god i wish we had that v8 diesel in the US
Price of lc vx on road ?
About 105...
Cheaper than its Lexus brother , but ended up with the Lexus 570 oh well practically twins
and WAY higher fuel use, close to 20 litres per 100ks
uhm yes , she only leaves the house on special dindin runs and Sunday drives , I drive my hilux more often
Dylan Heem thw lx is more luxurious and stylish
yes very beautiful indeed
They got a petrol version??

Compare RR with this... Plz
What a very old fashioned looking car
Robert Murray I agree with you needs to be replaced with anew model.
Robert Murray
funny you say that.
i thougth the same thing about you..😉
what, did you want it to look like all these new SUVs that basically look like a mini van? just look at the damn discovery it looks like a soccer mums mid-size SUV
You've just got no idea!
I'd want more ground clearance.
You can modify it as you wish. The more clearance the less high-speed highway capabilities. LC200 right from factory is a perfect combination of both.
This dinosaur needs to be replaced by an all new model.
Is it necessary? LC200 in terms of toughness and road capabilities is so close to perfection.
I heard toyota is is finalising designs for the LC300, for a release in a couple years' time.
With a payload of 610 kg in a Gxl model gee what a disappointment to use as a towing vechicle.
Be overloaded.
.
And they compare this to the bmw X5 lol hahaha
Second row space isn’t that good, uses fuel like a petrol, and ramp over is average. It is a 4wd, but only just???
