Oiler In A Territory?

[snail]

I am looking at purchasing a car which would be used to tow a caravan (1.6 t ) around australia. My T will stay snug as a bug in the garage by the way. I wont need huge off road ability - just a gravel road and the usual corregations!

Now I dont know anything which rivals the dynamics of the Terri- braking, handling, swerve + recover, towing ability,etc........... but one thing is missing as far as I am concerned - a diesel which brings economy and longevity to the donk.

Does anyone here have any news on if or when this is coming?

Cheers with beers,

Snail, you need to get a Territory with the SNAIL bolted tothe side of the 4lt motor....aka a Turbo Territory.

It will pull your caravan like it was not there, but it will drink the fuel, but it would be fun blowing the doors off a V6 commie while towing a caravan

but whens that due?

They just need a good ole V8 in em.

I really need an alternative to a kluger or Pajero diesel rather than blow their pants off ( which would be fun) but I need reliability - they've got them ( diesels ) in the jag why not in the terri?
