True, it doesn't - but I drove one this morning, and I really don't see what all the crying is all about!

I was not saying Haldex had a valid point
Just remembered that I read that somewhere... So how is the ride?
Damn you Fazda, I'm in DBN at the moment and so tempted to come through and trade my Giulietta in
You'll get a full tank of fuel for the alfa and that's it

Nope, im 1.85, I sat in the seat and couldnt see the speedo.
Not a big issue but really silly design, apart from it looking ugly, its not designed right lol...
Oh well...

Ouch!
So I couldn't wait and I went for lunch to check out the models on the show floor. The seating is so low I can imagine it's go-cart like. I'll give some feedback when I've had my test drive on Saturday.

Just lucky I didn't bring her with
Now go home and fetch the little Italian chick, bring her down to the coast and we can swap~!

I'm really struggling with this
Or.. don't buy it, sell Hilux, and get new hilux or Jeep wrangler unlimited.
I can help you, whatever you decide!
GReddy has a racing/drifting Subaru Scion they slotted a Cosworth tuned 450kW+ WRX STi motor into. I'm sure it'll put a smile or absolute terror on your face

Some knuckleheads will probably do this to their street cars soon.

The thing is, all of those parts are basically available off the shelf.
Yip.

Except with the Jeep Wrangler
Only thing that's pushing me to the Jeep Wrangler from the Hilux is price, I worked out that a Hilux Dbl cab 4x4 diesel spec'd similiar to my current Hilux (leather, bluetooth, canopy, rollbar, bullbar, etc) is over R500,000. Jeep is R410,000

You don't want to go there...
Thing is - I'm not worried about reliability, because it won't be my problem under warranty

You also don't want to sit without a car every 2nd week.
