I've been running an 05 113 hp L200 for nearly five years here in France. You have to realise that they are an old-school vehicle, lots of grease nipples on the suspension and d*****ine.etc. They are tough as old boots but they need regular attention. The d*****ine and chassis is basically the same as a Shogun/Pajero. The engines themselves are tough but are let down by the egr cooler corroding through which dumps the coolant so byebye head gasket. The cam belt is usually let down by the balancer shaft belt breaking and getting involved with the cam belt which results in wrong valve and injection timing and broken rockers. As with the Shogun the harmonic balancer/front pulley delaminating is a common failure also.

If you get a good one that hasn't been abused, neglected and overloaded they are ok.

Despite the comments from Sandy56 the parts are cheap from Milner 4x4 at Derby.

I think some previous moderator objected to the word d r i v e l. I wouldn't have worried myself, but the software only lets us add words to the filter, not remove them!
