I don't think a patrol can be compared to a landcrab
IF ITS NOT BROKEN IT MUST BE A PATROL

Interestingly, I went on a Desert drive on Friday with a long term Lexus LX570 driver who happened to be driving the Y62 on the day. (He's seriously capable on sand).
I could see that he was having a lot of fun with it (Nissan UAE lent it to him for the event). I took the opportunity to ask him what he thought of it.
He was quite impressed and said that it was way more powerful than the Lexus, seemed to handle wel and was also quite luxurious.

the more I am reading about the Y62 the more it seems to stand out as a good all round Tow / Play vehicle

I drive A LC 200 for work sometimes.....I like them..if I wasn't such a Nissan patrol freak I reckon that'd be what I would get.....fuel economy towing a nearly 3 tonne van at 120 still sitting around or under 12lt/100km..
Watch this space, as there maybe a comment added soon

Don't think so. My mate's been down this road. Wanted to fit a D4D V8 from a 76 series to his GU. Physical / clearance issues from memory.
I think the 200s have the same engine, except it's twin turbo and much more beefier? Someone correct me here if I'm wrong I don't know toyotas much .

Interesting how price listed is for a base GX LC and top of line Ti'L Patrol. Looks like another bias article
