Thinking of 2008 style Ranger Wildtrak, anybody no much about them?.
Also spotted new Jeep Wranglers 2.8 Sport 5 door pre reg July 09 for £13500 which seem good value. http://www.cheapchryslerjeep.co.uk/specials/jeep-w...

Driven the new ranger 3.0 in auto. dissapointing, but a different car in manual. 3 ton pull, only beaten by 3.5t in defender, equalled by 3t for Trooper.
twice mpg over the jeep. Will also last and be far more relible and cheaper to service.
only gripe is lack of traction control or locking diffs for serious off roading. Nice cabs now more room in back in line with other double cabs.

So I bought an L200 Bull with power upgrade! Better deal.
