    My daily drive is the Prado... Hers is a Commodore V8 SS Sportswagon.
    Hers might go fast but mine will go anywhere

    The SS gets driven by me on the weekends to blow out the cobwebs!!!!!

      I wouldn't recommend that, history has shown that anyone who embraces mlc becomes scarred (and scared) for life. Allegedly. Just look at my poor Mitsubishi, everyone thinks it has an airbrushed flamingo on the bonnet now.

        All he needs is a hug. He's like an armadillo. Crunchy on the outside, all soft and gooey on the inside. Allegedly.

          Recently moved on our Camry after 13 yrs of faithful service. The kids have their own cars so Chris went a bit sporty and bought a Mazda 3. It's a sweet ride.

          cheers

            My favourite cat before I bought the Prado was my Honda Accord Euro - my wife has a Mazda 2 - I avoid it as much as possible.

              My Prado is my daily drive and the Mrs has a VE SV6 Commodore. The commodore is great on the open road, handles well, enough power and good on fuel, but I love driving the Prado.
              Cheers, Terry.

                  My daily drive is a Hilux, company car. Its rough & plastered with sign writing but its free.
                  We just traded our Aurion for a baby friendly Mazda cx5. I loved driving the Aurion and will certinly miss the V6 when we pull the cx5 into traffic but with the baby coming it was about time I let the wife choose her own car.

                    No, not a real one. A copy, a replica. A real one would be worth 1 - 5 million depending on racing heritage. Or you can buy a new build from Shelby for US$225 thousand.

                      That's what we had too before the Prado. Best car we ever had. If it had 4wd and a 7" lift kit we'd still have it.

                      Wish list in order I'll get them: Sliders, 2" lift, E-locker, Winch bar with winch.
