I personally think they should of called the current Prado model the 155 series (like they did with the 100 and 105 series). It's not all new but pretty new and a heap more features like diff locks std from GXL.2007 GXL V6 - ARB Bullbar with LED lights, snorkel, extractors, 2 1/4" dual exhaust, K&N filter, dimpled/slotted rotors, headrest dvd players, Ebay Satnav/reverse camera, GME 3100TX, Tigerz11 Side awning on custom brackets with Maxtrax mounts, 300W Invertor, ARB Underbody protection, Lightbar and STZ 265/70 tyres.

Quote: "I'm thinking 2020 at the earliest. That's only two years away. I'm expecting something different like a small petrol turbo and/or potentially a petrol hybrid."
I think things may change a lot in the next few years, perhaps not here so much but certainly in Europe where Volvo have announced that they will no longer manufacture new petrol or diesel only cars from 2019. It seems hard to imagine for an old codger like me but that is next year.

The only decent thing would be portal hubs.
Emissions and costs of Euro 6 Diesel makes this a very high maintenance package.[FONT=Century Gothic][B][SIZE=4][URL="http://www.pradopoint.com.au/showthread.php?36057-Ryback-s-Flinders-Red-120"][COLOR="#B22222"]'04 120 Petrol Flinders Red GXL[/URL][/COLOR][/B][/FONT][/SIZE]
