  • Interesting note in recent CarsGuide review (GX manual):
    "the approach angle isn’t as good as it used to be - now 30.4 degrees, where it used to be 32deg, and the departure angle is less, too, now 23.5deg (was 25deg). Ground clearance is down by a millimetre, to 219mm".
    Not a big change but surprising.

        Looks good Jet,
        Hadn't noticed the unusual way the numbers on the dash go round like that before!

        CMI? - I didnt get a big ribbon on mine!
        Cheers

        • Nar we bought our new 2015 Kluger from CMI west tce and that was a good experience then it started having issues at ~50,000kms and the service team just couldn’t get Toyota to put their hand in their pocket to fix it properly and it became very frustrating even through the service team did everything possible. We gave them a chance to price us up a good deal to trade it in on this Prado and maybe give us some love on the price but it was all BS games and i just don’t roll like that unfortunately, went to Peter Kittle on MNR and zero BS, cut CMI’s price to bits and the deal was done in like 20minuites

          Very happy there’s some dealers that understand stuffing people around is bad for business, I don’t do it with my customers so why should a big corporation !

          (Sorry about the rant)

          • @sydney_sider I know I asked this once already and didn't hear anything back but just in case you missed it, any chance we can see a photo of your Kakadu in Dusty Bronze? It's what I'm looking at myself but haven't seen the colour/trim combination in the flesh so would appreciate seeing yours if possible.

            Cheers

                • Hi everyone, I am going to purchase the 2018 prado GXL soon. I have done a bit of researching and understand that the 2.8 diesel engine has the DPF issues in the past. Some people suggest that I should take the extend warranty package from toyota in case the DPF issue is going to happen in the future. Do you guys suggest if its worth to pay extra for extended warranty ? Thank you

                    How much does the extra warranty cost and how long/extra kms does it provide?

                    • It’s about $700 per additional year over the standard 3 year period

                          I cant remember who started this - it was a few pages back, but it is a good chart to give an indication of what people are paying.
