@Robert-cu9bm why does a diesel being more efficient for work make it better for a ute than a petrol??? You gunna be running a plow behind it or pushing up dirt with a blade on the front???

@Robert-cu9bm modern utes are for driving around worksites and carrying tools or small equipment with some people using them as tow vehicles (which they aren't the best for either). Plus in all towing tests the petrol patrol uses the same fuel as the diesel 200 series??? Don't believe me research it. 20yrs ago no doubt diesel was the best option but these days the petrols have gotten so much more advanced that the advantages of diesel are negligible. Unless you're towing actual big loads (3.5t+ which these utes aren't designed for) petrol is better than diesel for the everyday driver

Nice review. The 4-cylinder engine is great. Needs to be offered in Panamerican, or better still lower spec Amaroks. ie: Ones that have 18" ATs and Sports Bars as options so they can do some real work. To pay 89k on the road for it in Queensland is a lot! I'd have to spend another 10k to get it to compare with what my Amarok V6 Highline MY17.5 has. It came with sportsbars, and I bought roll'n'lock and Rhino Racks and ladder racks for another 10k. I doubt if you could even add some of these options to the Aventura. Ford really has got some better options in terms of capability across the range and configuration choices. Lots of QC issues with the rangers though. Lets hope VW don't have those ... Also why don't Ford offer this engine too?

Whilst I thought it was your customary thorough review with no holding back, Paul, I'm not sure taking a brand new vehicle to somewhere with a laptop and a lot of attitude and little else to chip tune it is a good thing: firstly, if engine sound is important to me, I'll buy a car with that, not pay extra to have my warranty voided (does VAG have a lenient reputation regarding warranty claims?). Furthermore, I hardly expect a team of engineers who have worked for years developing the engine to have done such a bad job that a change of parts/programming will do anything other than hobble some other aspect of the engine. But to summarise: poor economy, poor quality of assembly, poor ergonomics in the cramped interior, poor suspension tune, fast in a straight line but without good enough brakes to stop it well. For $80k plus ORC plus the mandatory snorkel, bull-bar, winch, tow bar, driving lights, and suspension lift, it seems like rather poor value-for-money to me.
