Yep I found them on facebook, cunningly I'm in spain so will be a left hand drive, which is a shame as the US ones shipped would not be worth it. Yet to find the german supplier- as my german is pretty basic and the word probably has 6 syllables anyway found some autocad and PDF drawings for...

Landcruiser colorado in the UK = Prado.... I had this one in Colombia...3" lift and 33's, but definitely needed a re-gear the 2.7petrol didn't have the required grunt in the hills and didn't go slow enough in 4wd low. The 5 door model had a bigger engine....in the EU it has a 3ltr TD with...

The 105 was never sold in europe....middle east was the closest area they were sold in to Austria 105= a rough duty version of the 100 series with basicly 80 series underneath with the 100 series body on top

that's the Prado badged version in other countrys......its a light weight version in comparison to an 80 series or 100 series......not saying it wont make it.....but they have a lighter weight running gear, difs axles etc etc Dream overland truck...
