I have always thought they are cool, but never considered the lowered look. Really cool!

I'm not a SUV-fan, but I'd drive that Land Crusier. What a fantastic looking vehicle!

Is very true because all I see is this, not sure if £165 for 6 months qualifies as cheap road tax.

I've just been quoted £2000+ for insurance, so it looks like a no go for me.

Can anyone think of another car, where they used the classic shape and pressings etc but put a modern engine in and make it pass modern(2014 in this case) emissions and safety?

Agreed, I suppose the price is good because it's modified.
