>>1382236Live in Australia and would like to put together a long range 4x4 for outback touring. Toyota Landcruisers are very common, but exceedingly expensive up front and in terms of running costs.
I'd consider a short wheelbase Landrover defender as they don't require much after market modification to make them capable off road vehicles and are surprisingly cheap. All I'd do is slap a few solar panels on the roof to run a fridge, chuck a couple swags in the back with a few extra jerry cans of diesel and we're off.
