It gets a very positive reivew, this thing looks to be a good competitor to the Land Cruiser 70 series wagon, about similar pricing.
Although I'm concerned over the choice of those engines, they spend so much time and effort ruggedising that vehicle, right down to the choice of recirculating ball steering rack, to then put BMW engines in it - not exactly known for their robustness 
They should have used a truck manufacturers light/medium duty diesel engine and then either the GM L8T or the Ford 7.3L V8 options I reckon for the unleaded job. |
Exactly. Why have an engine that is quite complex and hard to work on. And going by stuff i see on other forums, they exceedingly go wrong and are fitted with a bunch of plastic parts that don't stand up well over time. It's an odd choice for sure.
