4 x 4 Update

Post by PeteC »

Primarily devoted to the Land Rover Defender new model (but still looks classic), and some other very expensive imports. Pete :cheers:

I just don't understand who would bother paying 3.25 million baht for a vehicle like that, and don't even mention spares/servicing etc. Anyone who actually goes off-road hasn't got that kind of money so you are talking about rich city dwellers that might go as far as up on to the pavement/sidewalk outside school at 8 am, or perhaps the owners of Chok Chia Farm and the like.

Complete waste of money imo, could buy 2 houses for that in a lot of places. :shock:

Yes, I like Land Rovers but for 3.25 million bt you could buy a Toyota Vigo, a Nissan Navarrah and an Isuzu D-max, all 4x4 four doors which seems a better deal!

Personally, if I was going to spend that sort of money, I'd rather go for that Toyota FJ at the bottom of the page :thumb:
