(I posteted this on a Patrol forum. I'll try it here to see the differing responses.)
Hi all
I curently own a Discovery 300tdi 1995 which I am looking to replace with something a bit bigger (and a lot more reliable).
I'm looking at buing a 3ltr diesel Prado 1996 or a 2.8 Patrol GR 1997
they are both coming in around the same price £4000 ish.
I will be hoping to do some overlanding with my wife and two young kids.
The Patrol is a bigger car on the outside, but how about internally?
Is there much or any extra space over the prado?
Also my disco is full time 4wd so is the Prado, good for going from tarmac to snow to tarmac to snow etc.
is going from 2wd to 4wd to 2wd etc etc easy in the patrol? I wouldn't wat to be stopping each time..
any help appreciated
thanks jake.
