You open that to the side and then open the boot can be a bit of a hassle to get in and out of the boot though. You could buy a ...

Toyota surf was always a problem I hear from a friend that owned one. It came down to the way they were imported. Get it running and sell it, some young gun will love the thing and you can go shopping for something great. Time to cut the loss and run.

Totall agree with PK we have the same model 2001. Runs perfect, 2002 will probably have qadra trac, make sure it works every now and then you get one that just doesn't.

Chev is the beter option. Never the less this is a 4x4 forum not a poofy arse bling-bling column. If you need mod's to go off road theres something wrong four wheel drives were made for a reason, look around.

Your looking at a Toywhata? If you want gutsy, bullet proof and robust dont waste your time. Go the bigger motor and a car that needs less mods, have a look at the JEEP range of the same of the same age.
