Hi everyone, I am new here so be nice please. My wife has a T180 tourer and my father in-law is looking for a 4 wheel drive to tow a car trailer and a builders trailer both twin axle. I have advised him that the Landcruiser is probably the best of its type on the road and as my wife has driven Toyota for quite a number of years i know they arevery reliable as well execpt for this injector knock problem which is only cosmetic really.
Anywayand to the point, He only tows a few times a year so will be looking for an older colorado maybe 98-99 sort of thing. Is there anything i should be looking for when i find one we like. I will be looking at anything from 80k to 150k as long as its in good order with service history or receipts to prove same so would need advice to cover that sort of mileage.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to offer, Cheers.

Did your father in-law manage to get himself a Colorado?
I've got a 99 SWB 3.0TD GX comercial looking for a new home, already has towbar fitted, drop me a note if you want more details.
