    It's a precision driving machine!

    I believe if memory serves me correct, it was the only Prado in the crew not to get bogged

    and the newest Prado got bogged twice....

    Will get some pictures up tomorrow once it is back from the airport.

    I got bogged in the new Prado as I backed in to snatch someone and put myself in the wrong position. The second bogging was due to driving into the equivalent of quick sand as we had torrential rain all morning.

    Did you ever sell the R36?

    When I sold our Pathfinder to a Family from my kids school, I told the guy I had NEVER got bogged or stuck in it, turns out (well his Mrs told us he did'nt ) 1st time he took it off road he got bogged!

    Yeah sold the R36. I was pretty lucky that we only paid 63k new for it so the depreciation wasn't to bad. Just looking for a small hatch now.

    Graceville. Will need a polish and maybe some effort around the rear tail gate due to my stupidity. Also the rear bumper has been pushed in at the bottom due to backing into a stump, you can't really see this from normal standing height.

    polish?

    bah - this car needs dirt to make it look better not polish.

    guys, i've driven this truck for many km's on highway, dirt and sand - runs well, engine smooth, handles as it should, is awesome offroad (sands of fraser for me), interior as expected for a 13 yr old prado.

    bloody bargain.

    will be sad to see my "loan car" go - i have a soft spot for the old girl

    No RWC as the water pump needs to be done. I can deliver to anywhere within 50km of my house. I will remove the plates and the rego label unless someone wants to provide their own RWC.

    A/C is working and cold enough.

    I have a brand new prado and I actually prefer driving this. It handles better with the upgraded suspension and just cruises along nicely. I am trying to represent this vehicle as it is and not hiding anything so if anyone wants more detailed pictures prior to coming please ask.

    I was looking at buying this and doing the labour myself but I really don't need two 4wd's
