gets a good review, i like them. if i was looking for a good touring 4wd i would definately consider one as an alternative to a prado.

particularly if you compare them to Prado in price. anyone priced a new Prado lately..........!!!!

even a couple of mates i know with current Prados reckon Toyota are starting to price themselves out of the market......in this segment.
This car is like a bad drug habit. It is taking all my money and time, my family are concerned, but new mods just feel sooooooo good.

FJ (frr...g Joke!)

Looks like they got Billy Bob in to consult or the Stavic's designer.

What a confused looking truck! Probably end up with something like this if you went to a wrecker's yard and picked out bits to DIY a 4x4.

To even suggest its retro like the Jeep or Hummer, well the Wrangler is just continuing its evolution ( no retro here) and similar to the Hummer albeit more of a bling machine for drug dealers.

You're gonna look like a kid driving the thing, with the seats sitting on the floor.

Lada Niva - well ya got what ya paid for.
