Car: '08 Honda Accord Euro Rep Power: 46    |  Our 2002 Toyota Prado I'm not going to pretend I own this but this is my parents 2002 Toyota Prado TX Diesel, seems to be a bit of interest on the board for some offroad machines. It's had the "usual" modifications performed to it to improve it for offroad work (within the first couple of months since purchase new), which in the first year of its life it got (we took it up to NT) but my dad has been working overseas for the last couple of years so it hasn't had much use (it has only 50,000km on the clock) Basically it has the following 'mods
Main things that suck about it
This baby will hit 0-100km/h eventually thanks to its hopeless 3L Turbo diesel  After a while they decided they wanted a caravan for more relaxed camping but wanted something that was still capable of 4wd'ing. Here is the resualt a 2005 Trakmaster (built here in Melbourne) designed for 4wding with the usual luxuries of caravanning. It hasn't seen much use because of my fathers aforementioned work overseas. According to the makers it will go about 90% of the places the prado would go by itself. Anyways enjoy                         (picture at the bottom is of the antenna (auto tuning) that mounts behind the spare tyre and the whip that sits on top of the tunable base)) Seriously long range out of it

Car: 2004 Chrysler PT Turbo; 1985 Toyota 4Runner Rep Power: 40 | Nice! I like it. Coupled with the trailer, that's a nice little offroad package.

Least the LR fuel tank hasn't fallen off this car like the one in our Mitsu Pajero, it litterally fell off and was dragging along the ground... (Near innaminka)

Car: 93 Toyota Tercel LFS Status:  Rep Power: 21 | Same steering wheel on our 2001 Sienna. Toyota probably has them on nearly half their cars worldwide. Really really nice looking truck! What are those cases for at the back?
