Hi guys, I am sure you have all argued this many times but I would like your advice.
i have an 06 100 4.2td vx with 65,000 miles, I am strongly considering selling this and getting an good 80. (Firstly is that a bit mad?)
I have a couple of 80s that I use on our farm and I love them, they are used and abused daily, they just don't stop. the 100 is a mighty vehicle, beauty to drive, so smooth and tows brilliantly, but there is just something so cool about an 80 and so much that can be done.
my query is do I go for for a manual diesel or an auto lpg?
One of my 80s is an OZ import 4.5 lpg manual and has no where near the towing power of my 24 valve diesel maybe the uk ones are better?
i have an lpg tank at home so lpg is costing about 60p/l which brings down the running costs if lpg, just to confuse it further.
And is the auto box in the 80 much less refined than the 100?
thoughts please.
