Yes at least its got rear disc brakes. They really need to do something with the 3rd row of seats not folding flat. Apart from that it should have good service and resale compared to the everest.

And the advantage of rear discs is what.?. Pray tell..

Just picked TDR and it drives really good. Much better then normal ones and pajero and everest for me.
Great looks with extras

And gps works nice with live traffic.




 

I think the white with the black roof looks really smart. I actually like the appearance better than my EV and the front seats are more comfortable.

PattayaBoy, nice car, does the driver seat come with adjustable lumbar support?

[Chuckles78]

Well it's been a while. We took delivery of our 3.2L Titanium. Beautiful car, very quiet, even my neighbours questioned if it was a diesel. 

 

The panaramic sunroof is stunning early in the moring, evening or when overcast how it lights up yhe interior. During extreme sun we close it. 

 

There is ample room in the back and i love the electric foldable rear seats (i saw this in the new renault espace in europe earlier this year). The middle row slides forward if more legroom is needed way back!

 

Sync 3 we have, would be nice to get google maps which hopefully will come soon. 

 

The 4x4 works great! We crossed some flooded roads and it felt like driving in the dry. We did a long country trip too, very nice on the highways. Small pot holes? Hardly feel them anymore.

 

Mirror crosstraffic alert, backing out left/right vehicle alerts are awesome. Autodimming rear mirror is nice too and there are plenty of more options to keep amused. 

 

Lane assist would be nice in EU but here where it would be suicide to only drive in marked lanes not very handy. 

 

One other thing, we have a app from Ford for roadside assistance. It passes our location on if we need help and it has a locate my vehicle option! That works great!

 

The alert chimes are premium. A guest noted how it sounds similsr to being in a aircraft as to other cars.

 

Anyway, very happy with it, more so than the hyundai santa fe I had before!

Guess you are using Apple CarPlay. Google maps works great with Sync 3 and Android Auto. Bought the 2.2 Titanium+ and it's been great so far.

Bloody hell man, there are more bottoms on that steering wheel than on a Formula1 car, he-he.

Yes ... no built in gps ... I'm now happy using 'google maps' BUT where to hold my phone. I have marked the dashboard with the phone holder for car cam ...I now have a car cam on the mirror ... 

Am awaiting a reasonably priced 3rd party 'upgrade' to the 'in car' unit to enable me to connect 'maps' to it ...

 

 

 

Have a look at these for a phone holding solution, they use an air vent

True enough, but significantly cheaper than a carplay enabled head unit :)

 

Must be some copies available here somewhere

Mrs JAS won't let you get a copy anything :)

 

Bluetooth audio and screen mirroring works very nicely in the mu-X (which has GPS and a dashcam as standard).

Unfortunately that is quite near the mark.

 

Isuzu GPS is based on Garmin, or it was when I had one.

 

I initially missed it but now am very happy with 'MAPS'. It's just this Sync2 thing that can't easily mirror my phone screen ....

[Chuckles78]

I just came across a crash testing site which compares Fortuner, Pajero Sport and the Everest. Most of it is in Thai though.

See that little 'square bit' in front of the 'gear stick'. That is a cover and under it is a button that you depress to select 'N' when the ignition key is out. Useful to know ... my cover if off all the time ... you can buy a clip in 'thingee' to make it look better if you wish.

I am interesting . Do what you , guys buy these unguided Roads ugly cars? where do you live? You have a big family? buy Hyundai h1. . if there is no family than Civic or Tiana are not satisfied?
