Prado Vs Patrol
Here is a question for all you petrol heads out there.....
Which would you recommed, second hand at about 4 to 5 years old should i go for a Prado or a Patrol ?
Perhaps i should add that i will be taking it off road as well as driving it up and down the SZR

Re: Prado Vs Patrol
Either really, both do pretty much the same job. At 4 or 5 years old I'd mainly be buying on condition as it is likely the vehicle in question will have been off road at some point. If you find a good one at a sensible price buy it whatever the badge says.

Whatevr you do, go for a Prado...The men in white have forever tarnished the image of Patrols and Land Cruisers...I hate it when a clown in one of the former cars sticks himself to my rear bumper...
