Lost with the 100 specs in the UAE (1 Viewer)

[arnob_38]

Hello,

I will be relocating to the UAE (Dubai) in a couple of days.
I am planning to buy a LC100 there, but I'm pretty lost to find relevant information on which model is the right one to choose.
- 4.5 (6 in line) or 4.7 L (V8)
- GX-R or VX-R
- which models have a factory dual tank ?
- can I put 16" wheels (ideally to fit 285/75R16) on a 2005/6/7 model ?
- do all models have a factory rear locker
and so on.

All the people I talked to have no clue on this ; they can hardly tell me that there is leather inside...

If anyone has experience on what is available there, just let me know !

Thanks in advance.

Arno

Thanks Ghanem,

Why is it difficult to find a LC in good condition ? Because of lack of maintenance, or too heavy off-road ?
