Toyota Prado Altitude V's Prado GXL

[Silvo]

Well after a lot of car yards and annoying car salesmen, we have ordered a 2012 TD Landcruiser Prado won't get it until about July but happy to wait.  Next step is to sell our Jayco Swan and head towards the complete campsite camper:)  Anyone that has one advise on these would be greatly appreciated.

which complete campsite model are you after?

Good to see Lindsay still chasing that beer.

Didn't end up with an altitude?? If you had to wait.

This altitude special is tempting. But is it worth 10k over a Gxl??

What's toyotas position on specials. They have been in yards 4+ months now ? Bargin power?? Ones I've looked at are 03/12 or 04/12 compliance.

Thanks.

sorry to take it of topic for a sec but how does leasing a car work and is it better then financing a higher priced car?

The Altitude is a special model and the dealers won't have as much room to move as a GXL or VX.

Re leasing you need to see a tax advisor to work out if a lease is suitable. A novated lease comes mainly out of pre-tax $, this will bring your gross down. A CHP (commercial hire purchase) comes out of post tax $ but you can claim the business % back of all costs.

For whats it's worth, If you can find any left, the 50th Simpson Anniversary Nissan Patrol in an Auto can be had for 54K, I know of two left i you want, both white in Auto.

I got mine for a bargain price and so far very happy with it, although the Prado is WAYYYY more sophisticated and more Car like, the Trol is more like a truck.

If you hold off till October, there is a new Update for the Y61 troll coming out, rhoumured to have the Pathy V6 in it and a whole new interior.

I have it on the know that the current Y61 shape will be with us till 2015, hence a new revision of the series, dubbed teh GU9
