Its a 2000 SR5 Turbo Diesel Hilux
My first car was a 83 2.2d hilux, then a 95 2.8d hilux, a lemon of a patrol, then I went back to the mighty hilux's
Dad bought it brand new, and was going to sell it with 420,000kms on the clock.
But as it has been looked after sooo well, and hadnt missed a beat, I HAD to have it.
It has just ticked over 530,000kms and is still going strong with original motor, turbo, injector pump, diffs, transfercase. The gearbox was rebuilt at 350,000kms.
It has done a lot of kms, but long traveling mainly, as it was dads work car, and he used to drive a bit.
I had had it all over the vic high country, simpson desert, central australia, darwin, kakadu, and its been great!
