Good day Folks!
Greetings from Singapore!
Glad to be able to find this place!
About myself, i drive a Triton L200 ( have been for the last 9 years) and its literally my first wife!
Right now, due to family needs, a 7 seater would be preferable.
the issue on hand is cars literally cost an arm and a leg ( plus other taxations here) and would not have considered a prado at all.
Until i saw the new Prado Utility:
its bassically a stripped down Prado 150 with a 6 speed manual gear box, no back seats.
To make things better, these are registered as a commercial vehicle here ( means i pay $360 to $700 road tax a yr vs $3.2k for a normal registered.
My idea is to get the Prado Utility ( i dont need all the extra frills), but i do need to find the 2nd and 3rd row seats.
I've been looking all over the internet to see if these can be bought easily ( i'm in import/ export trade, so shipping is no issue)
Lastly, the passenger prado here cost $195k vs the utility cos $115k . so if i can install the seats and seat belts into the utility and drive it around, it would defnitely be a good " family " car
plus diesel here is cheaper than petrol!
thank you in advance people!
Cheers
Russ
