I must be lucky then my L200 is 2 years old now and been faultless for 20k miles. Fair enough it only does 24 mpg with the bike on the back but at least I know it will get me to a trials venue at any time of year.
Even though they look bling with the big wheels, wide arches etc they are still agricultural deisel trucks and should be driven accordingly
. It makes me laugh when you see boy-racer types thrashing them about because it has a turbo, bonnet scoop and stuff.
Saying that I have been considering trading it for an Impreza WRX but that would be even more gutsy and expensive to run.
