SWB Diesel- Automatic og Manual?

[Rust]

Hi

I am looking for a Landcruiser 90 SWB Diesel ...


I need it for everyday driving, and for some hard offroad ...


I expect 2 "suspension lift and 285/75-16 Cooper STT tires


Would you choosing a automatic or a manual?


Those we have in this country has been running around 300.000km (185000 miles) Is that a problem?

No problem at that milage as longs they have been serviced and looked after, I prefer automatic and the auto box is very reliable, autos are also better for off road

In the UK the 90 (SWB) only ever came in manual. All the automatic ones are import Prados, usually with an intercooler too. But they didn't get the rear differential lock like we did.The automatic is a nicer drive as it seem to have better gearing.

On the long wheelbase (95) almost all were automatic. There are some manuals, but not nearly as many.
