What a truck - I want one :D

Towed smoothly at 60-70 all the way to scotland without once grumbling and returned 25mpg whilst doing so, fully laden with a ton and a half of car, 3 people and a full load area. Made it all the way back on just under one tank of fuel :thumb:

Comfortable as anything could be for driving for 10 hours, seats 5 grown adults.

Loads of space

Nice looking

Even Rachel was saying we need to get one 8)

10/10 from me.

I've owned mine for about a month now, and am really impressed with it..it seems to be a real solid bit of kit, not missed a beat

On saturday I took a quick trip nto Wales to pick up an impreza for a friend and it just ate the miles, even if some of the miles were up mountain roads no wider them my trailer...lol

mine is also great off road, as me an a few mates took it on an off road course yesterday, it did really well! it was great fun!!

I was wondering if anyone else would be interested in doing some sort of 4x4 day? could be another Bigpower motoring event??

Probably best to PM Bubble about this. He has a few suitable toys :D

The new L200's are far better on fuel than the older ones Duncan, 25mph isnt bad for that distance and weight. We looked at the new L200 before going for the Pathfinder, because we wanted more family space like the Shogun Sport we had.

We opted for the Pathfinder purely because of power and torque it has, and the 7 seat option.

I usualy sit at 75 to 80 :oops: with the trailer, and i know i am carrying the best part of 2.5 tons. If it isnt towing the car trailer its towing a horse box with two horses in it, or doing the kids school run.

From day one, having covered 18000 miles since new, probably 14/15k of those are towing, its averaged 24mpg overall which is stunning IMO.
