Toyota Land Cruiser Colorado (1996 - 2002) 3.0 TD GX 5d Auto Owner Review
In their own words
Purchased my 4x4 in August 2016 to tow my boat and for winter transport. On the test drive the car drove like new and felt very safe and secure on the road. During my four years of ownership I have found the car to be very reliable and rewarding to own. The design of the car means that it is very easy to carry out routine maintenance using basic tools. For example, to change the oil the drain plug is easily accessed without removing the sump bash plate and the oil filter can be changed by unscrewing the canister by hand. The alternator was replaced at 107000 miles, but apart from that nothing else has failed. The build quality is outstanding, and the chassis and bodywork are still in good condition. It tows well and is very comfortable for long journeys. There is some body roll when cornering briskly, but it grips and handles well for its size. It feels very secure in snow or muddy conditions due to the permanent four wheel drive. The average fuel consumption is around 25mpg but this is offset by the very good reliability, meaning repairs are not often needed. A very useful and dependable vehicle which is now part of the family.
