Inflationary pressures/covid etc are meant to be the reasoning, sounds like complete BS to me. You would think the price you discussed and fixed on the showroom floor would be fixed but those bean counters from Japan obviously feel inflation outweighs good business ethics.They make a good car but they know it and are bloody arrogant kents. A mate of mine had owned Landcruiser since 1967 and when the 200 series came out, he went in to do a deal for a new one. He wanted 5 seats not 7, they said no. There were a few other things he wanted to chop and change and they just said "there it is, take it or leave it" which he did. He went and bought an Audi Q7, they basically started with the base model and gave him a shopping list of options which you ticked yes or no. You could choose btw 5 seats with full size spare or and 7 seats and a space saver. Very happy with it.
