The Land Cruiser has been produced in convertible, hardtop, station wagon, and utility truck versions. The Land Cruiser's reliability and longevity has led to huge popularity, especially in Australia where it is the best-selling full-size, body-on-frame, four-wheel drive vehicle.1951 - The Toyota "Jeep" BJ prototype was developed in January 1951. This came from the demand for military-type utility vehicles, much like the British Land Rover Series 1 that appeared in 1948. The Jeep BJ was larger than the original U.S. Jeep and more powerful thanks to its Type B 3.4-liter six-cylinder OHV Gasoline engine which generated 85 hp (63 kW) at 3600 rpm and 215 N·m (159 lb·ft) torque at 1600 rpm. It had a part-time four-wheel drive system like the Jeep.Bigger brake rotors and calipers were added and the front suspension was made heavier duty than the Land Cruiser's first effort at IFS in the 100-series and this underbelly is also protected by skid plates. Also, the roof pillars were totally redesigned to better protect occupants in the event of a rollover. Though many time-honored Land Cruiser supporters welcomed the re-invigoration of the mechanical aspects of the vehicle, the 200 Series encountered some criticism due to its bland body restyling, with some claiming that Toyota has 'overdeveloped' the classic trademarked Land Cruiser identity in its efforts to fit the Land Cruiser into modern 21st century motoring and vehicle design. While Toyota is guilty of playing it safe with the styling, ever-increasing crash regulations and a demand for creature comforts have played their parts. Nonetheless, the Land Cruiser remains the NATO vehicle of choice and remains a very serious off-roader which can run with a Range Rover in the harshest of environments, though despite improvements it falls short of the Range Rover as regards interior finish and on-road dynamics.

toyota land cruiser prado 2009 2010 lc 150 havy and big cars pics & best videos
Same goes for a Middle East tipster who was at the right place at the right time (what a coincidence) and got the new Toyota Land Cruiser Prado (known as Lexus GX in the US) on film. Apparently the car loses some of its muscle looks thanks to a redesigned front fascia with swoopier headlights, a vertical-bar grille and a raised lower bumper detail. With minimal changes in the back that includes more pronounced taillamps and a unique U-shaped chrome garnish, we’d definitely want to get behind the wheel on the new Toyota Land Cruiser Prado.

The new 2010 Ford Mustang, modestly updated mechanically but totally restyled inside and out, may just be the car that will make or break the struggling Detroit automaker.A reworked suspension evolved from the suspension given to the Mustang Bullit special edition from the the current generation should provide a boost through the twisties, though sports car buyers will still be dismayed to hear that the next generation 2010 Mustang still does not get an independant suspension in the back. 2010 Ford Mustang package is a visual success. Interior materials are much upgrades, and if the leather in consumer cars looks as supple as that in official Ford images. The exterior sheet metal, except for the fast-back roofline, is all new for 2010. At the front, the new headlamps, lower fascias, fenders and grille are capped by a powerdome hood that adds to the muscular appearance while functionally allowing for enhanced air cooling of the engine.
Mustang's washer-fluid nozzles are tucked into the cowl, while the antenna has been moved to the rear, both of which create a cleaner appearance while also reducing wind noise.

Ford focus rs 2010 cars specifications !!
224kW and 440Nm generated by Ford's 2.5 litre Duratec five-cylinder turbocharged engine, the Focus RS dispatches the 0-100km/h sprint in 5.9 seconds.
Ford has recently revealed a preview of its upcoming 2011 Ford Focus ST - the RS's less-powerful sibling - this may be the first and last opportunity for Australian buyers to get their hands on one of Ford of Europe's most exciting models.
Suspension and handling is managed by Ford's innovative RevoKnuckle front-suspension system and Quaife Automatic Torque Biasing limited-slip differential. Braking is covered by 336mm ventilated front and 300mm rear brakes.Petrol engines available were the well-proven 1.8 L and 2.0 L Zetec-E units from the Ford Mondeo and 1.4 L and 1.6 L versions of the Zetec-SE units found in the Ford Fiesta and Ford Puma. The ST170 and RS performance models used modified versions of the 2.0 L Zetec-E. Originally, the only diesel engine available was the Endura TDDI (a development of the old Deutz-designed motor which Ford had been using since the 1980s). small family car (European) class, used the less expensive half-independent torsion beam suspension, Control Blade offered enhanced elasto-kinematic performance, i.e., strong body control, sharp and accurate steering regardless of the car's attitude, and an absorbent and quiet ride over bumps.
Unlike conventional multi-link suspension, Control Blade features a wide, simple, uniform thickness, pressed steel trailing arm with hub carrier — taking the place of two longitudinal locating rods, eliminating an expensive cast knuckle, and offering the same level of body control — with a lower center of gravity, reduced road noise, and at lower production cost. The long rear lateral arm controls toe, a pair of shorter front lateral arms, vertically above each other, control the camber, and the Control Blade reacts to brake and traction loads.
In testing the suspension in 2000, Motor Trend writer Jack Keebler noted "The Focus' average speed of 62.6 mph through our slalom makes it faster around the cones than a $62,000 Jaguar XJ8L and a $300,000 Bentley Continental.

224 kW, 440 N.m, 100 km/h in 5,9 seconds and a top speed of 263 km/h.Wow, and good looking as well. Finally a limited number of the Ford Focus RS will hit our shores soon or South Africa’s that is. Your Price tag will be around the R479 000. Looking at the price tag and the look of the vehicle that it is a luxury car maker’s vehicle in terms of it being one of the three big luxury German manufacturers. The tyres that are factory fitted on these are Continental 225 mm wide to keep you glued to the ground when she starts moving, instead of taking to the air.The engine is a five cylinder in-line with a turbo, which unlike its rivals in the same category, is a front wheel drive vehicle only.
