[QUOTE="Wookiee, post: 222031, member: 6697"] I think first and foremost is buy a car which had good parts availability. Especially in remote areas. While there are a lot of good 4x4's out there I personally would only choose either a Nissan Patrol or Toyota Landcruiser (I own 5x 75 series Landcruiser utes). Cruisers and Patrols are everywhere and most auto parts stores carry the common parts for them and pretty much every wrecking yard in the country has a few of them. Not dissing any of the other brands or models. I have worked in the auto parts industry for many years and know how hard it can be to source parts for the not so common 4x4's and the delays in some cases of getting parts for them. Also every farmer has at least one Patrol or Cruiser on their property you can scab parts off of for a few beers if you get stuck out bush ;) [/QUOTE]
