    එහෙම ලෙඩ නෑ බං අවුරුදු දහයක් පරණයි කියලා normal maintenance කොහොමත් කරන්න වෙනවා.. Montero sport compare කරන්න පුළුවන් toyota fortuner එකත් එක්ක, දෙකේම prado එකට වඩා පොඩ්ඩක් pickup එක වැඩියි, අනිත් හැම අතින්ම Prado එක හුඟක් ඉස්සරහින් ඉන්නවා, ඕනෙතරම් Prado හොයා ගන්න පුළුවන් ලක්ෂෙට අඩුවෙන් දුවපු කරකලා නැති, හැබැයි ගාන වැඩිපුර කියයි.
    Fuel නම් ඉතින් 7-8 තමයි කරන්නේ.

    ela. gannawada nedda kiyala hitha hitha inne.

    when it comes to comfortablity Prado is a ahead. but if you are buying a petrol one please remember petrol engine has less torque compaired to a diesal so being a big heavy vehical it will lack pulling power. both are very robust .and the fuel economy Montero sport will do avarage 8 km liter but keep in mind you have to pump super diesal .Prado will do around 6km liter but you can pump 92 octane .and maintanace cost will be relatively less for the Prado in the long run.. it will all depend on what you intend to do with the jeep. practically Prado is not very well suited to be a daily runner in my experienc.

    cant compare the two. Prado is the best in every aspect except pick up is little bit low but all other aspects including resale value

    Two different vehicles.

    My neighbor had the Prado 150 and I have a sport (2011/12). In the Prado, the ride was comfortable, lots of road presence and commands respect from the 3 wheelers and motor bikes (I suppose b’cos of the politician’s influence on the vehicle). Beautiful vehicle to have with the interior being nicer than the Montero’s. But not as nippy and bad on fuel plus needs a lot of space on the road from a maneuverable point. Maintenance wise a little on the expensive side but spares available.

    M/sport is a robust ugly beast and the interior is shabby. But easier to drive than the Prado. Follows a very basic principal in terms of technology and maintenance wise, not very expensive. Spare parts available anywhere and everywhere. Unimo is an excellent agent for support purposes, appointments are easy to get. On the highway I’ve got 18 kmpl on the display, but do not know about the accuracy of it (photograph available). I once saw a modified one in Yala, and it looked really good with the tires out. On a dirt road, I’ll always chose the Montero sport and no complaints about the usage of it on normal roads either.

    However, it is your choice. Buy the vehicle that you like to drive, cos it is for your pleasure and not other’s.
