200 Series Landcruiser
Seems as if it will be an awesome vehicle. Very encouraged to see the Kinetics
suspension system available on a local product. I've experienced this via sponsor involvement with UWA Motorsport team and its capabilities are amazing. We also had the technical guys from Peugeot rally team at work last year and they also gave the Kinetic system great raps. I'm not from Kinetic btw. For those interested in UWA Motorsport try this link UWA Motorsport

'Awesome' would barely describe it. What an 'all rounder'!!!
At least 100 series TD auto's will become more realisticly priced in short order.
UWA Motorsport. You blokes wouldn't happen to be the mob who use (or used to) the Australian Marine Complex hard stand area down at Henderson by any chance?

Hi V8Diesel,
I'll be looking for a replacement for the Patrol mid 2008, so will be keen to follow how
well received the new Landcruiser will be. Don't know if I'll be able to afford one though...
I am not actually with UWA but yest I think that they have done vehicle testing down there in the past - now use the AHG site at the airport as I understand it. Our involvement is sponsoring and supporting the guys who look after the engine and powertrain. The motorsport program really is very good and has been the source of 5 recent graduate engineers - all of whom have worked out great.
Regards,
Hugh
