[QUOTE="user 12139, post: 630357, member: 12139"] I've driven troopy's (company cars) for years, hard to beat, particularly serious offroading out in the never never, but like you say expensive and the wait times. Go second hand troopy, let someone else loose the bucks. The savings you make can go towards kitting it out. My last 2 motorbikes, 2 boats and 3 cars were brand spankers. Tallied up how much I've lost, aint no more new vehicles for me! Sure second hand means a bit more shopping to find the right one, but if your patient you will find what your after and you'll be so glad you did when you see what you saved! Make sure it has a full service history, and if possible buy private and note what condition the sellers house and other vehicles are in - a persons house and other assets are telling of how they look after things! Buy on the proviso you can tow something heavy to check for telling noises, have your local mechanic check over it for you before buying. Just cause its used dont mean its a lemon! [/QUOTE]
