    Landcruisers are the way to go if you can keep feeding them diesel. The dmax is a good jeep too and easier on fuel but not as comfortable.

    You're saying 6K? I'd say that would get you a 99-00, not 03-04. No problem if it was looked after, they go forever, bulletproof!

    That on has high mileage I know but in relatively good nick and you could buy nearly 3 of them for the money. Good buy.

    I've been looking for similar for the past few weeks and in my searching I can tell you that Landcruisers ('03-'04) are very few and far between for a 6k budget.

    I know they're good jeeps, have driven a good few in the past, but can't help feeling that they're wildly overpriced secondhand so have been looking at '00-'03 Pajero's instead and there's a lot more to choose from.

    +1 to above. There is no 4x4 in my opinion as comfortable as the landcruiser. The pajeros are very giddy on the road.
