Hi All

Just recently bought my first Prado about a month ago. Totally new to the whole 4WD scene but so far the site has been a great help in making my purchase! Looking forward to some new adventures. It's mainly stock with a few add-ons from the previous owner.

Model: GXL
Year: 2005
Colour: White
Accessories: Towbar, UHF radio, Pioneer head unit/DVD player
Wishlist: Bullbar and probably a lot of other things I don't know I need yet :P

Cheers
Mahesh

Hi

Been living in Australia since July 2013 and just bought my 2008 GX D4-D 120 series. High mileage but looks well looked after. It's totally bog standard at present but have lots of plans for it. I'm an aluminium Welder, fabricator and CNC Machinist by trade so first on the list is a bespoke bull bar and roof rack tray.... looking forward to gaining some useful knowledge from this awesome forum! ☺

my mechanic wasn't pleased i bought a LCruiser...

did the injectors seals at about 50,000,no crud in the strainer,replaced with alu ones

G'day Brent, beaut looking car. If you see a white prado waving it'll be me. You should be pretty easy to spot with your number plates

[dagree]

Nice one Gogetter... If I see the plates around town will give you a wave!
