Mind you if you're having a mid life crisis and can stretch another $15k or so

Went for a drive in my brothers and it was very nice, they have had it off road and said it went pretty well. Saw one at Double Island Point when we went for a drive during the MySwag get together, it was doing the sand quite well, was high tide as well. But $80K don't think so, my sil wanted an MU-X would have been better value.

Never had so much fun thinking about spending all that dough on a tug. Oh well perhaps I'll get some sunnies and shell out for one of these and stick my head out the window of the Zook occasionally-

As the Subject and Question for the Poll suggests....what would you choose and why?  I know I know, I've been around here long enough to know where this thread is headed but I've been waiting 18months for all of the above vehicles to be released (the mitsi is soon) and will be upgrading in the next 6 months or sooner.

Now the dilemma is the X-trail has and is a great little bus.  It's great on fuel, tows fantastic for a car it's size and believe it or not is quite capable off road in the right hands.  We want a little more luxury and room, better off road ability (especially towing the Swan), increased towing capacity and above all not much more fuel use than we are used to.

Go...flame suit on!

I have a random option.

A bloke in Perth is doing GU Pootrolls with the 1HDTE turbo-diesel engine from the Hunjy. Many killer wasps and many many torques from that monster of an engine...

Cheers. It was already on the list!...Will be checking all the options before diving in.  The old Toyota isn't what it used to be so I'm finding out (service wise that is)

After reading all 6 pages of this thread, and now it's the end of February 2016, and all the "new" wagon models are out, no outcome reached. What is/was your decision Dave?

unsure if it fits the budget though

although I'm not so sure the grandkiddies will thank us for thinking of them quite like that

That MU-X engine though.......so damn good.

I liked the engine but found the auto 'box "clunky" ended up going the Colorado 7 (for better half) for better/smoother Box and cheaper price for extras
