Hi everyone,
I am soon to be buying a used 2008 Prado diesel with 250k odd km, and I have had a read through the forums but couldn’t find a specific answer for my questions.
1: Why do some Prados have a short stick with HNL and a centre diff lock button and others have HH, HL, N and LL short stick only? Is this different between badges?
2: Probably related to the above question, how do you tell what badge of Prado you have, whether GX, GXL, VX?
The dealer I am going through says the one I am looking at is a VX, but on the rear door there is no badge, and where there would be one I can see the outline of GXL. I know the car had been hail damaged so not sure if the previous owner replaced the door with a different one from the wreckers etc?
Just want to be 100% sure of the vehicle I am buying (and maybe can be used as a way of getting the price down - in the case it is not actually a VX).
