So interestingly those who say the 200 and 300 is exactly the same. In the reviews I have watched the 300 was more capable off road than the 200 but both got held up by poor bumpers. The defender proved better in every aspect but I assume again reliability will be its only issue. I personally think the 300 is a big improvement and we will still see 99% of owners driving tar anyway and the ones going off road will be 10 years old and modified.

Spot on Frosty.
The main reason the Defender is better is shorter front overhang and that air suspension....

I will not trade my 200 for a 300
Yes the V8 is heavier on fuel
Yes the 300 is more fancier
But my 200 is heavy modded
And I dont owe a lot on it anymore
And when I put my foot down the V8s roar is still the best sounding diesel

I have a confession to make.
The more I see the Cruiser 300, the more I can see myself in one.
But then I open my Banking App and see I’ve got about R1.95mil short.

I’ve got about
R1.95mil short.
Mike reduneer soos n vroumens.
Mike;
1. The LC300 V63.3 GX-R is R1 350 000.
2. You would sell your LC200 GX to buy the LC300 GX-R
R1 350 000 -R950 000 = R400k.
You could also get rid of that Gaymobile Corolla Cwoss Hybris Fag Edition.
So basically, you could get a LC300 GX-R for FREE!

R1.95mil means I want the GR Sport and not the GX-R
The 200 is not for sale not would it be traded
The Cross stays. It’s my daily
So Manny. Which is better for you- do you write me a cheque for the R1.95mil or EFT?

Mike just do it.
Was talking to a 300 owner the other day. Also makes my head spin. Very nice vehicle pity they have a problem with stock.
