Outer Limits 4x4 Board

would anyone know of any bad issues,things to look out for when buying a prado,am looking at 97/98 3.4 ltr autos,approx 150 ks....fuel consumption,timing belt intervals,any major problems????,all replies would be greatly appreciated,have seen a couple on the net for around $13,500 which seems about average for those models,or should i be looking at the 80 series petrol auto,it will mainly be used as shopping trolley & town hack, but we do the occasional camping thing and tow the boat around a bit,thought the 80 series might use a bit to much fuel,cheers rob

the fuel tank bash plates love catching and collecting mud, would be a good place to look if it has been used in anger.

Not much that I can think off the top of my head though, mines great and I can't see anything of particular interest apart from the normal things.

thanks for that i'll start looking
