      I guess it would be declared a write off by the insurance co.

            Love it when reporters state "facts".

            Article was written in 2011 and he states "brand new prado". It is a 120 series.
            And the writers name.... Batman and Robin!

                I reckon he just got a quote from Toyota to replace his faulty injectors so decided on an insurance job instead!

                          Apparently a Prado sank at the Yowie Bay boat ramp (Port Hacking, Sydney) last weekend. The boat was still attached to trailer and it was partly on the surface but the car was fully submerged. I will try to get a copy of the photo from my friend.

                            Yep - if you're stupid enough to put one of those bars on a Prado you're probably not smart enough to apply the handbrake....
