Hi,
I am a 53 yo male moving to the Sunshine Coast in November from Germany with my wife and 15 yo boy - so we need a car
I have not owned a Landcruiser (I did own a Hilux 4x4 when I was young) but as we want to go to Moreton Island and a bit up the coast and inland and like something that has a plenty of space I think a Landy would suit us just fine and we all really like the one friends of us have.
The problem is that I do not know anything and would appreciate any help which series to buy and how much I need to spend in order to get one that does not need lots of moneys sunk into in order to make it reliable. I am not a mechanic but know how to use my hands.
The budget atm is $8,000 but I might be able to stretch that to 10,000 if need be - is that realistic?
Thanks to anyone who is willing to help with advise
