New Hilux in Ivory Coast

[Franko78]

Hi, I have just taken delivery of my new Hilux here in Ivory Coast bought from the main dealer in Abidjan CFAO.
The spec is a 3 litre non turbo 5 speed manual. There is only 3 grades available here, mine is the high grade and I bought the optional nudge bar and liner

I have a imghostr account setup. I tried copy pasting the link into the post but the photo isn't loading, only the link.

Before you copy the link press the IMG button above the text box and this will come up

Copy your link in the middle like this.

As Critter says - tapatalk is good and may be a simpler upload option

In imgHOSTR - after you up load an image you need navigate to your photo album, selct you image then select Embeded codes:

ScreenHunter_02 Dec. 22 12.04.jpg

After you click on that then scroll down to "Full Image" and copy the link by hovering over "BBCode" and left click copy

ScreenHunter_01 Dec. 22 12.03.jpg

You can then directly paste that link into your thread without needing to add URL or Img codes.
You image will appear when you hit submit or preview on the newhilux.net page

Ok got quarter of the photo loaded. I'm making progress.

[DeadlyBeast]

Success!
Resize to 850 x 480 pixels first.
This site accepts small image file sizes best
That will also reduce time to upload

So I've been busy getting her mine compliant this week. I didnt leave my sparks near her. I did the job my self. Dash comes apart very easily and all went back together as well. Beacon and radio now fitted, buggy whip next.

Had my first load in the tray today

[Critter350]

An important load it looks like too. Helping Santa with freight?

Ya, even Santa needs a hand once a year.

Looks like when you put the dash back together you put the steering wheel on the wrong side lol:
Looks great, have a good Christmas
