Am I wrong in thinking if a vehicle is made in the EU it gets a dispensation and is allowed to be sold in the EU?

I think the chrome bits look great. It adds a touch of class and that 4.5 turbo'd diesel engine is a beauty. I had the pleasure of driving a standard one in OZ.

I would happily pay £40,000+ for the new LC79 daul cab.

Hi Folks, With the launch of the newest LC 79 pickup does this mean it with make the Euro rating now and we will get these in Europe?

This was an absolutely brilliant thread! Thank you for taking the time to share you're hard work. What is you're plan for the next one and can we put in requests? :icon-biggrin:

I hear you Greengrass! I just got to figure out the who to contact at these utility companies.

Thanks for the update Stan. Am I right in assuming that the new 200 engine is the same motor but just fitted with a second turbo and slightly tweaked. Does anybody know how many stars are needed to achieve/pass the NCAP rating? It achieved 3 in the ANCAP. Thanks again Alwyn

Nice bit of kit and it looks very straight for its age.

Hi Stumog, hope you going to put your ideas up.

Hello and welcome to the family of like minded people.

I want one of these so badly!!! I want to try and get them in the UK but right now i'll just be very very jealous of you.

Great news, with any luck they will be launched in the US and then the EU.
