Land Cruiser Prado

Breadcrumbs

Very capable SUV, completely at home on the dirty stuff. Not so accomplished on the black stuff.

Comfort

Large spacious cabin, good ride quality and lots of features to keep you busy.
Performance

Huge kerb weight and a lethargic auto 'box guarantees sedate performance. But plenty of torque to deal with the inclines.
Cool

Another macho, plus sized SUV with loads of chrome splashed around. Cool is its middle name.
Quality

Reasonable quality, fake wood finish looks tacky. Solid build though.
Handling

Tends to wobble around at highway speeds, lots of body roll around corners - even in sport mode.
Practicality

Ideal companion for the well heeled adventure enthusiast. Can literally take you anywhere.
Running costs

Expensive to maintain and run with expensive spares. May not be readily available too.
