sorry bert but i have to say rangers are shite like the above few posts say, have you ever tried changing a transfer box in one? takes 5 to lift out and in, needs a service every 7k, oils changing in the diffs, transfer box every other service pain in the arse thats from a ford technicians point of view!! i dont think they areto good off road either, they rot like hell and they have a turning circle of the arc royal!! personal opinion get something else

DEFFENDER 300 T.D.I is the way forward they are mint for off roading

Rangers will be the same off road as any other 4x4 pickup on the market today. Hilux is top dog but i dont like the shape, nissans blow up, mitsubishis have to be serviced every 300 yards, which only really leaves the ranger or the isuzu, i chose the ranger because i had 180, 000 trouble free miles with the old one and this one is shaping up to be even better. Also, services are 12500 miles apart not 7000 and i would change all oils every 20000 anyway.

IMO the Land Rover is a better option, parts are a lot cheaper than a lot of 4x4's. I have had Suzukis, a Chevrolet CrewCab,a Range Rover,. and the Land Rover is by far the cheapest on parts. At the moment I have a 1996 110 Defender CSW. OK, things do go wrong, but they go wrong eventually with everything. I can get everything and everyone in this vehicle. I get about 32 mpg. I admit I am not the fastest of drivers, but I get there eventually, and you have the added prestige of having a British car. It sails through the MOT, it is built like a tank, not like the Jap stuff. But there again, it is different strokes for different folks. And I would rather be in a Land Rover in a smash than anything else

i agree pal a td5 remapped will be better than any 4x4 out there they will pull a town down

If you buy a landrover for 5 grand after two years motoring you wont have lost much money on it.

 

If you buy an l200/navara etc after two years you will struggle to give the b*****d away.

 

For off road capability, value for money, reliability it has to be the landrover - with hilux as a close second.

 

Just my opinion.

 

Navaras have major engine problems depending on models - so dont touch

 

L200's in your price range drink jungle juice for fun and they are hideously expensive to run (as are all jap pickups)

Defenders all the way...maybe not the best comfort for motorway miles but for allround hunting, robustness and offroad there the nuts...
