Seriously, there are 4 main reasons for that.
1.the new Landcruiser is nothing but just a jokeas they have focused more on luxury and looks rather than pwerformance. YOu take it to desert for moderate dune bashing and you will definately end up with broken front bumper. Price wise it also doesnt worth. 4.7L v8 is under powered if you want the car to give you some serious off-road performance.
The pathetic after sales service of Al futtaim Motor which are main dealer for toyotas in UAE.
its very common. almost every dick n herry drives parado, pajero & LC here. (without offence to anyone)
I love the old landcruiser shape but Patrol has its own distinct charm & presence on the road. Yes it might be obsolete in design and technology but its still unbreakable kind of civilian tank on the road. No one dares to cut you or flash you on the road
Patrol is only japenese 4x4 for me to chose and be proud of. My next 4x4 is MB G55 AMG
