Me and the missus test drove a Landcruiser 200 diesel on the weekend and it was an interesting experience that you go through. So others know what to expect i have detailed the stages below
1. Nervousness - it is big really big you look across at each other and say "what you doin all the way over there"
2. Apprehension - you fire the thing up and realise that there is a great big V8 under the bonnet
3. Fear - You get it out of the car yard and see that it only has 400k on the clock and as you blip the throttle it behaves like a bull about to go monkey Shit
4. TERROR - You get a k or 2 down from the dealer and give it a bootfull, any notions you had of an understanding of space, time and the physics of the universe are literally plastered against the back window and this thing leaps foward like a scared rhino on acid
5. Relief - You back off the throttle and wave you hand in front of your eyes relieved that you can still see and also have not soiled yourself
6. Mistchievness - You both look at each other and at the same time say "lets do that again"
7. Supremecy - You both laugh like idiots when you leave a bogan commodore driver speechless at the lights
8. Sadness - As you return to the dealership and the realisation sets in that you cant afford it
9. Longing you get back in your prado with 96kw of indirect diesel power and it is just not the same
10. Wondering - Is there one vehicle purchase in a mans life that is done not because it should be but beacuse it has to be
