New Toyota Land Cruiser goes on sale St David's Day

	Following its recent unveiling at the Brussels motor show, the Land Cruiser V8 has been readied for launch in the UK on 1 March. As the ultimate Land Cruiser, the model comes newly equipped with advanced technologies for off-road driving, as well as an impressive array of luxury features. The single version has a £62,285 on-the-road price.
The Land Cruiser V8 gains a new frontal design, anchored by a new-look bumper, grille and foglights, plus new headlamp units that feature high-intensity discharge units and LED daytime running lights. The UK model is fitted with new black roof rails, side mouldings with chrome details and new-design 20-inch alloy wheels. The rear light units have also been refashioned and LED turn indicators have been integrated into the door mirrors. UK customers can choose from eight exterior colours, including two new to the model range: Pearl White and Pure White. Inside, the principal changes include new, air conditioned/heated front seats, a central cool box, heated steering wheel and all-round improvements to the quality and appearance of the trims and finishes. The changes in equipment specifications are led by the introduction of a comprehensive array of handling and driver-assistance systems that work together to make the full spectrum of off-road driving scenarios easier and safer to negotiate.

	Proton has extended a three years free servicing offer on all new vehicles in its range when purchased and registered before 31 March. Proton is also offering a free leather upgrade, worth £1,000, on the 1.6 GSX ecoLogic and the GEN-2 1.6 GSX.
