Is there any truth in the rumor that the landcruiser v8 diesel needs a ring and piston overhaul at approximately 200000 Klms.

you hit the nail right on the head. I have a 06 RV ute($63k) with a GXL ute on order ($74k). We are MAD to pay it and Toyota are laughing their arse all the way to the bank but what else does one buy.

I must be missing the point.
Over 60K for a truck without traction control, airbags. You have to be kidding , right?.
Toyota are laughing at us Ozzies for being so moronic. It is not that Landcruisers and Hi-luxes are so good, it is just that the alternatives are so bad.

By the way, I have owned 3 80, 2 100 series and heaps of luxes.

Well I have enjoyed my new GXL cab chassis for 3 weeks now. It arrived a few weeks earlier than the yard predicted. To answer a few of my questions earlier, the fuel economy is that good if you only ‘tonk’ around and don’t put the foot down which is hard with so much power coming out of the V8. Once you load it up with gear and trailer the economy drops off a bit but still better than my old 12HT turbo. I immediately noticed the extra 100mm in cab space compared to my old HJ cruiser and the foot rest for the clutch foot is great. The spare tyre under the tray seems to make little to no difference in the height of the tray, it depends on who makes the tray. Under the bonnet is packed except for one corner left clean for a second battery. I bought the cradle from ARB ($115) and ordered a smart electronic kit online for ($140) plus a battery. This is such a smoother car to drive, the engine is noticeably quieter than the old diesel, much more visibility, much, much more power, very comfortable bucket seats. Downsides – not much really – harder ride than wagons but it is a work ute, and I swapped the tyres straight away at the local tyre shop for better ones (straight swap) – oh yeah the speakers are a bit tinny.
