    Ugly but looks like awesome fun, those on-board air compressors are pretty trick. My niece is teaching in Abu Dhabi and has been on a few drives with some friends who have a 120 series, bet they would like a play with the Merc LOL.

      Just watched that with Trish, I guessed they might be worth 300k and she reckons we should get one last time she said something like that we had a new Prado 2 weeks later

      I do like that tyre inflation system and would love to know how it works.

      Cheers Andrew

        If you watch the video in the Drive article link they're talking more like $1,000,000, think it's a bit out of my price range LOL.

            We should get a discount. The Australian Defence force payed for this as part of the replacement program for the land rovers.
            If you are looking for a ^X^ the ones the Army are selling are not to bad. performance is not great but they generally get where you are going too.

              Maybe if I win the lotto LOL. It's hard enough parking the Prado around here though so maybe not.

                We'll probably get ripped with twice the selling price like we always do in Oz. So what are the ADF doing with the Bushmasters? I saw the General talking about it on Sky News this morning but didn't catch enough of the speech.

                    Keeping the Bushmasters (as far as I know) as they are still fairly new. Replacing all of the Land Rovers with G Wagons. There are heaps getting around Williamtown. I have seen one of the tray back dual cab 6x6 ones and they look the goods, I wouldn't mind one of them.

                              Sounds pretty dangerous with ministerial approval to me! Would you have time to get it ready for the gtg though!
