Advantages: 4WD, size,
Disadvantages: price, fuel economy,

...off-topic because I own the Toyota Land Cruiser Limited Edition Wagon Diesel. So, I live in the deep outback here in Oz and as you probably know, it is isolated (really!) I need a vehicle that is reliable, strong and relatively cheap to run. Toyota is a popular brand in Australia and so that was the first place I looked. I drove my very old Jeep down to the Toyota store in Melbourne (5 hours drive.) I look around and liked the look of the Toyota ...
...my Toyota as an investment but also a necessity. Options - Bulls bars (illegal in parts of Australia to save roos) - Air Conditioning (in almost all Australian versions) So, the final verdict has to be; it is a great car that people all over the world love. ... Read review

Advantages: Character of a coupe. With the genius of X-models
Disadvantages: The sticker price

...reviewed here is the 2008 BMW X6. The BMW X6 I believe is defining a whole new vehicle category..it's the world's first the Sports Activity Coupe. In a nutshell it's the best of two world's. You have the high ground clearance, high seating position's, big wheels...in my view comparable to the BMW X5, but on top of all that for the first time you get the design, performance and the agility of a large coupe. Talking about the design this X6 does not ...
...the subject of performance the BMW X6 has an all new engine, its a twin-turbo V8, petrol engine with 400 hp. I noticed what's particularly new with this engine is that BMW have placed the turbochargers inside the cylinder banks. Now this has two advantages 1) the engine is more compact in size, ie..the cg is more compact, and 2)it gives better throttle response, this vehicle goes from 0 - 60 mph 5.3 s...that's pure sports-car territory. Okay moving ... Read review

Advantages: Build quality / Good dealers / Load space / holds its price
Disadvantages: Not cheap. Would like 8 proper seat belts

...3 years old from a Toyota main dealer. The latest models seem very little changed (better audio etc.) I had finally lost patience with my Range Rover Classic (3.9 V8) J-plate which was (a)impossible to keep out of the repair shop for more than a few weeks at a time (b) risking my ability to maintain my AA membership ! (c) costing a fortune at 14mpg (yes - fourteen!) The Colorado immediately struck me as very solidly built, and all the surveys ...
...dealers (which is just as important) are top class. So far - they are right. EXPERIENCE TO DATE Mechanically the Colorado seems very solid. The only failure so far has been the battery, and that can happen to anyone. The replacement cost £59 via the AA. It is not quite as quiet as the V8 Range Rover - particularly under hard acceleration, but that's what you should expect from a big V6. The fuel consumption sounds mediocre at best - but is about ...

Advantages: Good Solid Well Built Truck
Disadvantages: Heavy around town

I have recentley traded in a mitsubushi Padjaro aganst one of these fine vehicles called a landcruiser, and now i understand how it got it's name, it is by far the best 4X4 i have ever driven and dose just about everything you want from a 4x4. The Padjaro was a super truck with great looks,but i would say that the cruiser is 30% better all round, not for looks but the actual ride is far smoother and the diesal engine is 50% quieter,everything is ...
