Soon I plan to buy either a Delica or a Landcruiser Troopy for a trip North (seven months) and future hikes south and north. This will be used primarily for overnight trips, I have another car for the city.
My budget is 15-20k (the lower figure is preferable).
In both cases I will take the seats out of the back, put a false floor in with sliding draws.
What do you think? Have you had any experience with either?
From what I can gather (in brief).
Landy = much better off road, better reputation as motor goes, more rugged interior (not going to spoil the nice carpet with salt and sand);
Delica = better fuel economy (12-13L/100km vs 12-15L/100km), for money newer car (late 1990s early 2000s vs mid 1990s), more space, more seating options, more creature comforts.
Please put forward your respected humble opinions.
Two examples of what I would be considering (look if you can be bothered)
