Josh Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 It took you a whole four minutes?! I was browsing Supra Chat and must have missed your mistake. I'll be more on the ball next time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajsingh13 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 everyone be careful if you use swapz as there are a load of con artists on there, the last 3 people to offer me cars are all friends trying to persaude me to swat for a impreza sti. i had the offer for a x5 and range rover both telling me they would rather have a impreza sti instead. describing exactly what they wanted. then today i received a offer of that exact impreza and after telling him the insurance was too much for me i receive a message from the range rove saying he has been offered that car and it is what he wanted and the insurance is a lot cheaper than a supra and the x5 with drew the offer.

rajsingh13 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 Cheers for the info lads i had no idea x5s where money pit. Looks like im back down to a L200 or Navara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Your mad !!! Toyota Colorado or Amazon are far superior in just about every way than both of the above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 No way, the L200 is an awesome thing!! Not sure on the Nav though I'd rather have a Hilux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Can only go on experiance from mates who have both the Nav and L200, the nav being by far the worst and seems to spend a lot of time at the dealership being repaired, wheel bearings, gearbox to name but a few, the L200 is a good workhorse but heavy on fuel and for a daily driver the Colorado is much nicer.

rajsingh13 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 thats what i was thinking i read a article about l200 and they where described as solid. not heard of a Colorado before who make them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 My cousin had an L200 Warrior. It was strong, but slow. The cabin was a bit basic and looked so, but did the job. I'd probably go for an alternative though, like the Nissan or new Hilux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajsingh13 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 problem is im on a budget of about 8500- 9000 and so the only options i can go for that i know of if l200 at the moment in less anyone can help and know of a better alternative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 thats what i was thinking i read a article about l200 and they where described as solid. not heard of a Colorado before who make them? Toyota, its basicly a slightly smaller version of the Landcruiser Amazon I paid just over £7k for my Colorado 2001 3.0 D4D with 60 k on the clock with full Toyota history, very good condition virtually unmarked. If you like comfort performance and a bit of fuel economy i wouldnt have the L200 unless you needed it for work, then again i'd have a Hi Lux over the L200.

rajsingh13 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 Found them look okay but a bit old and tired. I need a car that i can use for work and everyday driving thats why i was thinking l200 and originally x5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Found them look okay but a bit old and tired. I need a car that i can use for work and everyday driving thats why i was thinking l200 and originally x5 Theres no comparison between an X5 and a L200, their totally differant in just about every way, the L200 is a basic workhorse and an X5 is a posers 4x4 rd car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajsingh13 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 yeah i know but just looking for anything that looks good and i can use for work whether its a 4x4 or pick up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Says £12,495 on the ad ? This is the same model and year of my Colorada but in silver, dont agree that it looks dated though but thats obviously personal opinion. I think you after something with bad boy street looks going by the Warrior with the big 20" wheels etc ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 the car was sold for 9k back then. that Colorado does not look to bad actually but personaly i would prefer a l200 I suggest you go drive one unless you already have, the looks are about its best bit if your after a hard street look that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
