Ever complain that modern SUVs are just too damned pretty and expensive to take off-road? Crosslander may have the vehicle for you. Autoweek reports the rugged SRV (sport/recreation vehicle) will soon be sold in the US. But will you buy a car made in Romania?

Crosslander Home Page. (cheesy music warning)

 

that looks pretty cool :thumbup:

 

the crosslander website sucks! the autoweek picture looks much much better than the company's website...it looks like romania's standard display is 16 color ega at 480 x 320!...grainy crappy pictures

 

The "Bralizian" (did anyone catch the spelling?) website is a billion times better........:rofl:

 

Very interesting that 6,000 are already pre-ordered. i didn't hear about this vehicle until after i read this and went to the website.

 

Looks like a Land Rover Defender clone....:eh:

 

If it is, its prob got crap build quality, and limitless off-road ability

 

Did anyone else see any info on the website whether or not that Romanian company builds their own engines? Do they source them out to someone else?
