strange subject line I know.... but it will make sense!
So I had a 2007 GXL D4D a couple of years ago. Absolutely loved it. Did some ling trips up and down the coast and was thoroughly happy with it. In what can only be described as a moment of insanity I sold the Prado and purchased a Golf after about a year...(changes in circumstance... downsizing etc etc!!
.... have now sold the Golf and am due to pick up a 2005 VX petrol tomorrow!! I am based in Sydney, but am picking the vehicle up from Brisbane tomorrow so should get a good long test drive home!
I had an independent inspection done, and it came up really well, except some minor touch up had been done on rear bar, and it was pulling slightly left... so hopefully I wont be disapointed when I pick it up.
Will be a little different after having the D4D, but the V6's I test drove locally were lovely and smooth (and significantly cheaper) so fingers crossed!
Thinking of purchasing the Toyota extended factory warranty as it has only done 65000kms I am planning on keeping this for the long haul. Any experiences good or bad??
Anyway, thought it might be of interest. look forward to adding some bits and bobs to it as time goes.... first cab of the rank will be hilux washer jets as that was a point of irritation in my last one!
Cheers
